Captain America: Theater of War #[nn]

This hardcover collection plants Captain America squarely on a WWII battlefield, shield raised and battle cry unleashed as he stands over a fallen Allied soldier amid barbed wire, smoke, and the chaos of distant troops pressing forward. Steve Epting's painted cover work captures the grim weight of wartime with a painterly realism that feels a world away from typical superhero bombast — every mud-caked detail and billowing smoke cloud earns its place. A handsome 2010 volume that wears its wartime heart proudly on its star-spangled sleeve.
