See, I actually like Hitch. I was delighted when I heard he was doing it, although I like Epting too. (My favourite Steve is Cho's in New Avengers.) But Hitch, by all accounts, works slow. For this, especially if it's going to be a hook to draw in new readers, they should have given him the time he needed.

Also, honestly, the slow and convoluted plot is no way to hook new readers. Just... we're half way through the story, and I have no real idea what's going on. I guess it's just a matter of taste, then.

Oh, I think maybe I know why it's meh-ing me to such an extent - I like active protagonists, and this seems to have very passive protagonists. Cap is literally unable to act. I got all excited when Steve left a message with Vision, because he was actually doing something! And the present-day protagonists seem very reactive, they don't seem to have much of a plan, they just respond. (I'm hoping Sharon has turned herself in as part of a Cunning Plan; in that case, I will rescind a couple of criticisms. Even if that is the case, she should have kept the others informed.)
