My copy of Captain America #44 finally arrived. For reasons even I don’t fully understand, I continue to subscribe to Captain America through Marvel Comics. Only a few days ago I renewed my subscription for another year. I suppose it is just easier to pay a yearly amount (and save a good chunk of change over the cover price) and not have to worry about missing an issue. Still, delays and the occasional damaged comic have made me think about switching to another avenue. But that is neither here nor there.

With this issue, the lengthy “The Death of the Dream” storyline, which began with the death of Captain America in issue #25, is concluded. A new three-part story, “Time’s Arrow,” begins. Interspersed throughout the issue are flashbacks to World War II. Captain America, Bucky and the Human Torch are on a mission to find and save a “boy genius” by the name of Zhang Chin.
