Captain America: Marvels Snapshots #1

Part of Marvel's Marvels Snapshots anthology line, this 2020 one-shot brings together writer Mark Russell, artist Ramón K. Pérez, and colorist Rico Renzi for a ground-level look at the Marvel Universe through Captain America's lens. Alex Ross's cover portrait says everything about the character's weight — Steve Rogers looms large against a pale blue sky, jaw set with quiet resolve, one red-gloved fist raised as his vibranium shield gleams in the foreground. It's a beautifully rendered reminder of why Cap endures as Marvel's moral compass.
