Captain America: The Saga of Sam Wilson #[nn]

This beautifully painted Alex Ross collection cover says it all in a single sweeping image: Sam Wilson soars fist-first over a vast cityscape in his full Captain America suit, while a contemplative close-up of Sam in his Falcon goggles anchors the left side and an older, distinguished figure watches from the golden distance. Ross's trademark luminous realism makes the red, white, and blue feel genuinely earned, casting Sam's journey in warm, monumental light. At $24.99, this 2024 Marvel volume looks like a thorough and lovingly assembled celebration of one hero's path to carrying the shield.
