You call that living? Paul Brian McCoy doesn't care much for Dave Gibbons' "Captain America Lives Again" storyline:
"Thank whatever all-powerful tentacled thing in the sky you care to sacrifice your goats to that this steaming turd of a story is finally over. Not in the last five or ten years have I paid for a story that was so intellectually and imaginatively deficient as this one. Want a cliché? I’m sure it’s in here. Want hackneyed science fiction concepts that sound grand to a five year old – but ONLY to a five year old? It’s definitely in here. Want stereotypes and goofy caricatures instead of character development – or hell, character at all? It’s in here in spades. I can’t remember ever feeling slapped in the face like this. This is the worst writing I’ve read in a Marvel comic in years. And the art is ugly, drab, and boring."
And ...
"This is without a doubt the worst looking incarnation of Captain America I’ve ever seen. It’s as if Jack Kirby had been kidnapped, had his fingers broken and then told to stop being so expressive and draw him as if he were real. No. That’s not it. That would be better."
