Description

This is one of the comics I remember reading as a kid. You've got Captain America, surrounded by Hydra villains on a Hydra airship, standing over the seemingly lifeless body of Sharon Carter (SHIELD Agent 13). Outnumbered and outgunned, he vows to avenge her death. Now that's Captain America the way We like him! A truly memorable cover. Penciled and inked by Jazzy Johnny Romita.

A classic Cap cover! Your entire lineup of featured art is fantastic - did you set out to cover each of the main titles and main creators, or did it just end up that way?

I'd have bought this comic just to see how Cap doesn't get shot in the back by the lurking Hydra agent in the background.

I have loved this cover since the day I first saw it as a 12 year-old Cap fanatic on the grocery spinner rack.

Whenever the Star Spangled Avenger faces Hydra it is great.

When John Romita Sr. is drawing Sharon Carter it becomes "must-view" comics.

Go get 'em Cap!!
