For more than 60 years, Captain America served as an iconic figure
in popular culture, and one of Marvel Comics' flagship characters.
He represented everything good and positive about the classic
American ideal - truth, strength, liberty, and an unflappable
belief that justice would always prevail. When his alter ego, Steve
Rogers, was assassinated by a sniper outside a federal courthouse,
his death rocked the comic world and left fans and critics with
numerous questions about his life and how it ended. Did he die a
political casualty of the Global War on Terrorism, or was it just
another Marvel marketing ploy? Had he become an anachronism in
tights, or was he still a self-conscious, larger than life figure
who tried to bear the full existential weight of what American
military power had become? And how is his death in the Civil War
series to be reconciled with his second death, in Morrell and
Breitweiser's series ""The Chosen?"" This book brings such
speculations into sharper focus, compiling critical essays by a
wide range of authors, including art and literary scholars,
professors and graduate students, historians, and ""Captain
America"" writers. The range of topics discussed include the ways
in which Nazi Germany was represented in ""Captain America Comics""
from the 1940s to his resurrection in the 1960s; the creation of
""Captain America"" in light of the Jewish American experience; the
relationship between Captain America and Captain Britain, who was
featured in a few rare UK Marvel comics; the groundbreaking
partnership between Captain America and one of the first mainstream
African American superheroes, The Falcon; and, the various
successful and unsuccessful attempts that were made to kill Captain
America before his 'real' death.
A new generation of the world s greatest super-heroes takes center

Manhunter, and Mister Miracle. Known for its comedic tones and
quirky cast, this chapter from 1987-1996 in League history is

of revenge in this groundbreaking and legendary collection! Kraven

there is one beast that has eluded him. One quarry that has mocked

Spider-Man. And to prove that he is the hero's master, he will pull
on his costume and become him...after he shoots and buries him six
feet under! Collecting "Web of Spider-Man" #31-32, "Amazing
