So Grand Director Cap's going to be sticking around is he? Hmm interesting. Those preview pages look great too.

Finally we have a better idea of what Lady Bullseye's costume looks like... I gotta say, I like it a lot less now. I thought that it was actually crimson, not black.

That's pretty great that the '50s Cap was part of his original pitch for the book....

X-Men...a romance comic...with action thrown in...this explains the "sisterhood" of evil mutants...

I'm so glad Commie-Smasher Cap is sticking around. He is a character I thought was greatly mis-used and under-used back in the day. He deserved better then being turned into a nazi and killed.

It's cool that Brubaker sees Evil 50s Cap (can this guy get a proper name?) as sticking around; he's a nice wild card addition to Cap's rogues gallery.

I don't read much crime fiction, but I buy and enjoy Criminal for Brubaker's craftsmanship (and I really enjoy the articles at the end; I usually come away wanting to see whatever it is is being discussed).
