Captain America: Marvel Knights, Vol. 5: Homeland by Robert Morales, Tim Townsend
3.0

This wasn't bad, but not great either.

Homeland storyline is basically Cap dealing with his goverment and the army trying to fuck him over. A lot of backstabbing and evil people behind the shadows ready to take him out. You also get a cute little love story of cap and his new girlfriend. The other stories feature in here are a short on Bucky and also a time traveling, time hoping, confusing story about the granddaughter of Steve Rogers. It's weird and oddly done, and not all that interesting.

Overall, it wasn't bad. Homeland least had some really fun fights and I enjoyed the art a lot. The dialogue also works pretty well and the girlfriend stuff was all super cute. I also enjoyed the Bucky short quite a bit. The other storyline was pretty awful and not at all interesting.

Overall a decent book. All leading up to my re-read of Captain America by Ed Brubaker! A 3 out of 5.
