As a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgement of DC’s “WTF” gatefold cover promotion this month, I’ve been highlighting some gatefold cover issues from the 1990s for my recurring “Gimmick or Good?” column at Comics Should Be Good. This week, I take on Captain America #400, which was both a special “centennial” issue and the 15th installment of the Operation: Galactic Storm arc running throughout all of the Avengers titles in the early 90s. I like Galactic Storm, mainly for its conclusion, but what did I think about Captain America #400?
