The Frank Miller treatment of Captain America in the Daredevil story arc in
issues 227-233 (I think--I'll double check, if you'd like) creates as
psychologically interesting a character as any of the Wolverine stuff I've
read, if only because Wolvie's under the pressure of the marketplace much more
than good ol' Cap and therefore required to play to his audience.
Another good handling of the Captain was in Marvel Comics Presents #14 or • 15-
-somewhat hard to find, but entertaining nonetheless.



I'll have to check this out.  Thanks for the tip.  I don't always catch
Captain America in all of his crossover stuff with other characters.



Read it immediately!  In addition to being a pretty cool story, the quality
of the art far exceeds anything else done in comics at the time.

While I usually avoid DC comics (for no particular reason) I will have to
check Kingdom Come out.  I've heard nothing but good things about it.  Thanks
again

Andy
