Given "Marvel time," that was either 20 years (into the mid-'60s), or about seven years ago in comic book time, when flexes with the actual calendar.
Either way, it's understandable that Cap would be upset by being frozen again.
This time he wakes up in the future, and one in which the American dream is not faring well.
The heroes are gone and an aristocracy has taken over, leaving an army to deal death and destruction on the population - until now.
Once again, Mark Waid and Chris Samnee have crafted a gem of a story, which combines action and adventure with an examination of what America is all about - and Cap's role in the world.
Amazing art, a terrific story - it's the complete package.
You should be reading this comic. You are, right?
