Essential Captain America, Vol. 4 by Alan Weiss, Tony Isabella, John David Warner, Frank Robbins, Mike Friedrich, Herb Trimpe, Steve Gerber, Sal Buscema
3.0
Much like Chris Claremont, Steve Englehart is a decent comics writer/storyteller but his dialogue is maddening. It's even below the level of bad radio drama dialogue -- here, everyone explains their every action, no matter how trivial. Even "secret plans" are revealed before they're even set into motion.
But other than that, this collection was a lot of fun to read.
The Nomad plotline seemed unneccessary given the brevity of it all (four issuses, or so), but was still interesting.
As was the slightly homoerotic gym that Steve Rogers works out in -- a small gym with 'not many members' and seemingly one employee, Roscoe.
