American Update: Steranko A Go-Go: Captain America
*Marvel: Continuing our new Steranko A Go-Go feature showcasing the Silver Age Marvel super-hero work of Jim Steranko, one of our favourite artists and one of the most innovative. His storytelling, both words and pictures, sums up the spirit of the late 1960s, and his all too brief body of work has always left his fans clamouring for more. Although Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD constituted his main body of work, he did dip a toe into the water of other titles, including three issues of Captain America: #110, #111 and #113. We have the first two of these in this update. #110 is a landmark issue; Rick Jones takes on the Bucky identity and teams up with Cap against the Hulk. Marvel’s movie star villainess Madame Hydra makes her debut. And I don’t think I’ve ever since the fury of the Hulk so vividly depicted. The story continues in #111.
