Captain America: Sam Wilson #16

Striking a confident pose atop a rooftop bathed in warm golden light, a black-suited, red-armored heroine holding Captain America's shield and a pistol dominates Paul Renaud's cover — her cool "About time!" word balloon perfectly capturing the attitude she brings to the scene. Doves drift through the air around her, lending the moment an unexpectedly poetic quality that contrasts nicely with her ready-for-action stance. Nick Spencer, Angel Unzueta, and John Rauch bring that same energy to the interior of this 2017 Marvel series, making issue #16 a stylish entry in Sam Wilson's run beneath the star-spangled mantle.
