"Five one shots each dealing with a separate stage of grief is an interesting idea, but it ends up with some pretty rotten stories. A few nice moments in here, but completely unnecessary reading."
"This follows the Death of Captain America and shows how those who knew him dealt with it. It deals with it via five stories each highlighting one of the stages of grief: denial (Wolverine), anger (Avengers), bargaining (Hawkeye), depression (Spider-Man), and acceptance (Iron Man).
I thought Wolverine's comment to Spiderman about how it feels to lose someone was especially poignant."
"This book has some faults, but ultimately I really like how it was able to get across how "important" Captain America was to the Marvel Universe. Of course comics are all fun and games, but within the context of the stories, Cap was the man and deserves the respect the Fallen Son bestowed upon him.
If nothing else, this was worth it for the eulogy scene alone. So well done."
