Captain America Modern Era Epic Collection: Reborn

Ed Brubaker is a multiple Eisner Award winner. Following fan-favorite runs on Scene of the Crime, Sleeper, Catwoman, and Gotham Central for DC, he moved to Marvel. His Captain America relaunch, in which he controversially revived Bucky Barnes as the Winter Soldier, won over fans new and old. His revisionist take on the history of Marvel’s mutants in X-Men: Deadly Genesis resulted in a regular gig on Uncanny X-Men.

He and longtime artistic collaborator Michael Lark took up the baton on Daredevil after Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev’s legendary run concluded. Brubaker also jump-started Immortal Iron Fist with co-writer Matt Fraction and artist David Aja. Marvel’s Icon imprint published Brubaker’s creator-owned Criminal and Incognito. He has gone on to further success at Image Comics with titles such as Fatale, Velvet, and The Fade Out. Beyond comics, Brubaker has written for TV’s Westworld and co-created the crime drama Too Old to Die Young.

Marcos Martin’s clean, fluid style became an instant hit on DC’s Batgirl: Year One. He next worked on Breach and illustrated a brief Green Arrow run. At Marvel, Martin collaborated with writer Brian K. Vaughan on Doctor Strange: The Oath and became part of the rotating team of artists drawing Amazing Spider-Man. Martin played his part on the Eisner Award-winning Daredevil relaunch written by Mark Waid, and claimed both an Eisner and Harvey Award for his reunion with Vaughan on the creator-owned digital comic The Private Eye.

Brazilian artist Luke Ross has been drawing comics since the early ‘90s, proving himself an able stylist of super-hero action on titles such as X-Man, Sensational Spider-Man, Green Lantern, and JSA. Ross stepped in for Mike Perkins as foil to Steve Epting on writer Ed Brubaker’s Captain America and joined a rotation of Marvel’s top artists on the thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. His other Marvel credits include Secret Avengers, Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - The Little Sisters of Eluria, Star Wars: Darth Maul, and Star Wars: Thrawn.

The unique, shadowy style of Gene Colan (1926-2011) most memorably appeared in long stints on Captain America and Daredevil, and all 70 issues of Tomb of Dracula—among the dozens of other Marvel titles he has drawn. His DC work on Detective Comics and Night Force is equally well remembered. During the Golden Age, he drew multiple war stories for Marvel and DC alike. Colan has earned several Eagle Awards and had professional art showings in New York City. His work on Ed Brubaker’s Captain America at the age of 82 drew well-deserved raves.
