Una interesante visión alternativa del universo Marvel. Un agente nazi se las arregla para asesinar al Dr. Erskine antes de que pueda inyectar a Steve Rogers con el suero del supersoldado evitando que se convierta en el Capitan América. En el mismo atentado muere el joven soldado Ben Parker lo que privará al futuro Peter Parker de la influencia moral que marca su vida. Las consecuencias de esta divergencia se multiplican a lo largo de las historias seminales del universo Marvel de forma inesperada. Muy agradable de leer pero un poco para aficionados incondicionales.

This was b>spectacular! I can't believe I'd never heard of it before!

This is basically a reimagining of the Marvel Universe if Erskine was killed before Steve Rogers ever got the serum. It goes through the changes to Steve's life and how it branched out to effect Peter Parker, Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, etc. It's fascinating how much thought Straczynski put into the different ways this characters would be affected.

The art is wonderfully. It really gives the book a rougher vibe. It's not pretty; Steve's life was really hard and Peter Parker was, in my opinion, angstier than he is in the 616 universe. All in all, I greatly enjoyed this and I'll definitely be reading it again.

One of the better written comic series I've read in quite some time.

A++

One of the greatest 'What If?...' or 'Elseworld' takes I've ever read from both Marvel or DC.
