As a post-Avengers film comics person, I'm actually excited to be getting into things now with so many new series starting--it makes me feel less overwhelmed about playing catch-up.
The shield!baby made me both laugh and 'awwww', and while I'm not much for kid-centric plotlines, seeing Steve fight monsters with a toddler in tow is pretty amusing. I also enjoyed the bit of Steve/Sharon drama, although I very much *did not* enjoy Steve being added to the Children of Abusive Parents club. You'd think being a sickly poor kid would be enough angst, but nooooo.
I'm of two minds on the art. In the flashbacks, people's faces sometimes had a...smooshy? quality that I didn't like. But I adored everything that took place in the Z Dimension, and also really enjoyed how he drew Sharon. I also noticed that Sharon and Sarah had nearly the same hair style. I wonder if that was supposed to be an intentional parallel or if Romita just isn't interested in lady hair :)
