About the author

A comic book writer and erstwhile artist. He has won critical acclaim (including five Eisner Awards) and is one of the most successful writers working in mainstream comics. For over eight years Bendis’s books have consistently sat in the top five best sellers on the nationwide comic and graphic novel sales charts.

Though he started as a writer and artist of independent noir fiction series, he shot to stardom as a writer of Marvel Comics' superhero books, particularly Ultimate Spider-Man.

Bendis first entered the comic world with the "Jinx" line of crime comics in 1995. This line has spawned the graphic novels Goldfish, Fire, Jinx, Torso (with Marc Andreyko), and Total Sell Out. Bendis is writing the film version of Jinx for Universal Pictures with Oscar-winner Charlize Theron attached to star and produce.

Bendis’s other projects include the Harvey, Eisner, and Eagle Award-nominated Powers (with Michael Avon Oeming) originally from Image Comics, now published by Marvel's new creator-owned imprint Icon Comics, and the Hollywood tell-all Fortune and Glory from Oni Press, both of which received an "A" from Entertainment Weekly.

Bendis is one of the premiere architects of Marvel's "Ultimate" line: comics specifically created for the new generation of comic readers. He has written every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man since its best-selling launch, and has also written for Ultimate Fantastic Four and Ultimate X-Men, as well as every issue of Ultimate Marvel Team-Up, Ultimate Origin and Ultimate Six.

Brian is currently helming a renaissance for Marvel’s AVENGERS franchise by writing both New Avengers and Mighty Avengers along with the successful ‘event’ projects House Of M, Secret War, and this summer’s Secret Invasion.

He has also previously done work on Daredevil, Alias, and The Pulse.

Artwork needs work ...

[Doctor Doom · Rating 3 out of 5]

The artwork was kin of clunky but the story was pretty good [A group sneaking up on Cap? - C'mon!]
Not enough to make me buy more but I would read it for free.

Civil war 16/98 - 100% yes, read!


This is not the artist for me
But yay finally some proper Steve time

"No, you need Captain America.
Steve Rogers needs Captain America."

"They want us to be puppets to a corporate shill structure"
Yes Steve!
"They want to be comfortable, not safe.
They don't want to fight for their freedom
They want someone like me to fight for it for them, and now they don't know what they-"
My heart breaks for him

Capekillers
"I believe freedom isn't a commodity to compromise."
So betrayed by Tony, pal, partner
Even now Steve is being fair. Can you imagine facing Steve freaking Rogers and thinking you're right?!
"You tried. At least you did that."
Too good for this world!
"You don't even know what you're fighting for!"

"Iron man's a sellout, man. Always was."
Sam, also too good for this world

"Who are we playing ball with? Who are we playing ball for? Why can't anyone answer that one simple question??"

I swear, Cap jumping out of sky high windows/planes is like 90% of my personality right now.

this art is giving me frank quitely flashbacks

Cap finds his first ally, Falcon. No surprise there, they find out Spider Man is with Tony, and they go knocking on Hank Pym's door recruiting...see what happens! Bendis quality writing, and solid Chaykin artwork.

I don't like Captain America, I never did but I did enjoy seeing his face in this comic. He looks a lot older than I would've picture, but it fits because Iron Man is seen as an older guy too. This series is so good. I love the Civil War comics.

[Roy Cortez · Rating 2 out of 5]

The style of drawing is somehow similar to the other guy who messed with Wolverine illustration.

Who is this?! Guile of Street Fighter?! Close enough.

[Ruby · Rating 4 out of 5]

Things are finally picking up – watching Captain American fighting for the liberty of superheroes is better than seeing Tony Stark politicking for his cause.

3.5 Stars

[Niamh Ennis · Rating 3 out of 5]

nice little look at Cap's reasoning though its not quite developed yet. Hoping it will delve more.

[Erica Robyn Metcalf · Rating 2 out of 5]

I'm not super into the artwork in this series. Cap looks too much like Johnny Bravo.

CIVIL WAR tie-in 2.4 (CIVIL WAR EVENT #16)

Even close friends are at war. Who stands where? The line is clearly drawn. Whose side are you on?
