Captain America comics
Courtesy of the Iron Man movie and finding this com I've fallen back into reading comics. I've picked up some good Iron Man books such as Extremis and Demon in a Bottle along with the New Avengers trades. Now I'm looking to read more about Captain America. What are some good stories to pick up in trade paperback form?

I also highly recommend Brubaker's Winter Soldier arc (in Captain America volume 4). I may hate the man with a burning passion, but his Bucky-comes-back storyline was really, really good (if slightly diminished in retrospect by the horribly tacky replacing-a-70-year-old-icon-with-Brubaker's-own-Mary-Sue that's happened in current canon).
The first two volumes of New Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis have some very good Steve bits, as well as pretty art and the New Avengers fighting dinosaurs.
Ilove the entire Mark Waid run in volume three Captain America, but I don't know if any of that's out in trade.

I just finished reading the second volume of New Avengers and loved it. The artwork is pretty and I adored the group nudity scene in the first volume plus the interplay between Cap and Iron Man.
