About the series
In this five-issue Marvel series from 2003–2004, writers Chuck Austen and John Ney Rieber teamed with artists Jae Lee, Dave Johnson, and Gene Ha to explore a contemplative chapter in the life of Steve Rogers. Stripping away the shield and the uniform, the story focuses on Captain America as a man wrestling with his past and his place in a changed world. This brief, introspective run stands out for its emphasis on character over action, offering a quiet, visually striking look at the soul of a hero.
