A good idea executed poorly.
The character design for Blazing Glory was awesome and the art was some of the best I've seen excluding one flashback (I think?) where the art was some of the worst I've ever seen.
The signs were there that this could've been a really good story but it was all over the place, badly told and rushed to the point where I wasn't sure what were present events and what was a flashback.
Also why did Dracula pull up for like 3 pages then dip?
From what I did understood in the beginning, it wasn't bad. What followed was a hot mess that had the potential to be so much more if proper care was taken.

A captain America ?
The marketing claims it to be a What is captain America was written by grant Morrison Butt Overall the book feels disjointed And more like a Pilot tour long running series With way too much Filler in it.For the more from the way it ends on a cliffhanger and with no continuation in sight I cannot recommend this book unless it's on sale.

I picked up this 2014 hot mess from the Dollar Tree, which means I paid the only acceptable price. It dares to ask: What if Captain America was.... something else? But not clear on what? And also what if Dracula was there but only briefly? And also what if there was a brief shift to an insanely hideous art style? And also what if the title seemed awfully meaningless? And what if Steve Jobs was a crusader against surveillance and information gathering? I think that one was the one that made me laugh the most. I will not be seeking out volume 2.

Interesting tale presenting a Captain America type hero as a tool of the US Government
