Captain America #11 Review

Captain America 11 Captain America is dealing with the fallout from the time he spent in Dimension Z. Steve Rogers is emotionally scarred in his return to Earth given the losses of Ian and of Sharon Carter. Writer Rick Remender includes a flashback from Steve's early childhood as the writer has done since his first issue of the title. The flashback serves as further evidence to what has inspired Steve to become the hero that he is. Steve's sick mother tells him to not be affected by his past once he becomes a man. Steve's mother has served as an important influence for the brave hero he is and Remender has done an excellent job of showing the impact his mother's advice has had on the man Steve has become. Jet Black is in territory that Captain America can relate to. She is unfamiliar surroundings and Captain America tells her he will help her adjust to her new life on Earth and a living that is not influenced by her father, Arnim Zola. The villain, Nuke, is on a violent path of destruction in a town located in Eastern Europe, which hints that Captain America will encounter him at some point in future issues of the title. As much as Captain America has had to endure from his time on Dimension Z, he insists on getting back to his familiar lifestyle of defending the world from threats immediately. Captain America encourages Jet to let go of her past and she reminds him to do the same when he shows her the items that surround what used to be his home. Steve rids himself of his belongings by burning them proving that he still takes his mother's advice to heart. It will be interesting to see what becomes of the alliance between Captain America and Jet Black in future issues of the title. Carlos Pacheco takes over art duties and does an exceptional job particularly with the cover of the issue. Captain America #11 by Rick Remender and Carlos Pacheco is available now.
