Captain America has fallen into a clash with his government and his friends, and the people close to him are paying the price. The life of Cap's girlfriend, Agent 13, is torn apart as her superiors use her divided loyalties against her. Elsewhere, a new villain emerges; the Red Skull begins to make himself known; and the Winter Soldier again comes face-to-face with Cap. But which side will he choose? Plus: James Buchanan Barnes, Captain America's one-time partner Bucky, faces his first Christmas of the 21st century - and the truth of the terrible things he was forced to do as the Winter Soldier. And with Cap caught in a conflict he can neither take a side of - or understand - what moves can he make to try to redeem himself?! Collecting Captain America #22-24 and the Winter Soldier: Winter Kills one-shot.

OK story but... where's Cap?,
By
This review is from: Captain America Vol. 5: Civil War (Paperback)
The story is OK but Cap himself is only in like 5 pages of the whole book. Don't get me wrong it's an alright story, but it doesn't have much to do w/ Cap or the Civil War for that matter.

Captain America...but not.,
This review is from: Captain America Vol. 5: Civil War (Paperback)
The book was good, don't get me wrong. But it seemed to be alot about the people around Cap instead of Cap himself, with a few exceptions. IF you are collecting Civil War TPBs it's a must. I like the Winter Soldier One-shot. All in all, a good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent episode in the Brubaker Captain America saga.,
By
This review is from: Captain America Vol. 5: Civil War (Paperback)
For those who came in late, Bucky Barnes, Captain America's partner during World War 2, presumed dead in the explosion that put Cap in suspended animation until modern times, was actually rescued by a Russian submarine, and put into suspended animation. Brainwashed and brought out every now and then as an assassin - the Winter Soldier - he was finally able to escape their control.This is a three-issue chapter in the Brubaker Captain America saga (#22-#25) "The Drums of War", plus the one-shot `Winter Soldier: Winter Kills'. The `Civil War' event is continuing in the background, but this story focuses on Sharon Carter, Nick Fury and Bucky Barnes, as the Red Skull's plot thickens, as he meets with Doctor Doom; and Dr. Faustus and Arnim Zola make their presences known. Cap does get to beat up a Hydra base, so he is not completely absent. The Winter Soldier issue has Bucky reminiscing about his wartime friend Toro (which as we now know, is another sub plot to be followed up much later - see The Torch mini-series) and having a team-up with some of the `junior' Avengers, the new Vision, Hawkeye and the Patriot, who also get to beat up a Hydra base together. Namor also gets a cameo. The artwork in this volume is the usual high standard.
