Synopsis:

My review:
Once again I find myself reading a Captain America where about half of the book isn't Steve Rogers as Captain America.  Luckily, some of it was told in flashbacks, so half of it was Steve Rogers.  I wish my library had a bigger selection of Captain America graphic novels, because this is all I seem to be able to find.  I would love to read the older ones.

As for "Road to Reborn", there were some parts that I really liked.  The artwork was awesome, some of the stories were great, but the problem I had was that it was really confusing.  It jumped all over the place, from person to person, and setting to setting.  It was a little hard to follow.  I wouldn't recommend this to graphic novel readers, unless you are big Captain America fans or love Marvel.  And I wouldn't recommend it at all to non-graphic novel readers.
