Marvel Comics
Ed Brubaker and Cullen Bunn, writers
Patch Zircher, Mike Deodato and Scott Eaton, artists
These three issues wrap up the "Shock to the System" arc and launch the "New World Orders" arc, but as with this entire relaunch of Captain America, the big bad throughout is Bravo, along with his wife, the new Hydra Queen. The first arc of this relaunch introduced readers to Bravo, a World War II-era ally of Cap's who was lost in an alternate dimension during a mission and listed as missing ever since. He's managed to find his way back now and Bravo is out for revenge against those who left him behind.
So far, through various story arcs and manipulations, Bravo has caused Cap to lose his super-human abilities for a time and has led to the deaths of a number of Cap's former allies. Along the way, Bravo has also allied himself with a number of Cap's former foes such as Machinesmith and Baron Zemo.
"New World Orders" looks like it could be the final arc before Brubaker's tenure on this title is over with issue No. 19. And Bravo has upped the game to pit all of America against Cap, turning public sentiment against him in the form of reality television attacks. This promises to be a huge endgame for this huge story.
