Cap is awakened in the dead of the night by agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., who need the kind of help only he can provide. But the corpse he finds on the Helicarrier brings him face-to-face with the unthinkable, and opens doors to terror and manipulation he never dreamed possible!
It's a new beginning as four-time Eisner-nominated Best Writer Ed Brubaker makes his Marvel debut, joined by white-hot artist Steve Epting. As the new regular creative team, they will take Cap's life in directions fans will never see coming!

DNF'ed @ 45% didn't care for the story and wasn't a big fan of the art style.
The origin of Winter Soldier
The writing by Ed Brubaker is great as usual of course, but the art is just okay with nothing interesting to look at and very hard to follow action scenes. Also it’s interesting to see some characters from the movies with different faces, although the cap looks funny to me.
And, as it usually happens with superhero comics, you need to know some additional characters who are connected to the cap from his earlier adventures.
I guess I'll continue looking for other Brubaker works elsewhere.
