About the series
In the wake of Captain America’s transformation into the mysterious “The Captain,” his former sidekick Jack Monroe dons a new identity as Nomad in this short-lived 1990–1991 Marvel series. Written primarily by Fabian Nicieza with art by James Fry (and James Fry III), these four issues explore a grittier, street-level vigilante operating in the shadows of the Marvel Universe. A key chapter in the legacy of the shield, the series matters for its bold reinvention of a classic supporting character into a solo hero grappling with patriotism and justice on his own terms.
