CAPTAIN AMERICA

Written by STAN LEE Penciled by JACK KIRBY with GEORGE TUSKA, JOHN ROMITA & DICK AYERS Cover by JACK KIRBY
As America began preparation for the inevitable entry in World War II, a secret military project gave birth to the greatest one-man fighting force ever known-Captain America! Transformed by the Super Soldier Serum from a 97-pound weakling into the Star-Spangled Avenger, Steve Rogers led the charge to liberate the world from the Axis powers' grasp. But before the war's end an accident left Cap frozen in suspended animation and his sidekick Bucky dead, while the world turned on for decades. When the Avengers finally resuscitated him, Steve Rogers was greeted by a world vastly changed. He was a man out of time tormented by the death of his partner, but no less committed to the cause of fighting evil in all its forms. In this inaugural Silver Age Captain America collection, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby bring you the rebirth of an American icon in issue after issue of classic Marvel magic. You'll read the classic origins of Cap, Bucky and the Red Skull; see the first appearances of such cornerstone creations as the cosmic cube and the beautiful Sharon Carter; and watch Cap face off against Baron Zemo's Army of Assassins, the Sleepers, Batroc the Leaper, and his Nazi nemesis the Red Skull!

It's the return of the King! In 1975, Jack "King" Kirby came back to Marvel and his iconic creation, Captain America, as writer, artist and editor. It was Kirby unleashed -- and the results were groundbreaking. Kirby created an intricate storyline that built month after month toward America's Bicentennial and CAPTAIN AMERICA #200! The "Madbomb" saga featured an aristocratic cabal seeking to wrest control of the country by possessing the American people's minds and driving them to insane outbreaks of violence. It's an Orwellian adventure done Kirby-style, and there's nothing else like it! Also featuring an out-of-this-world alien Annual escapade, and Kirby's BICENTENNIAL BATTLES -- an 80-page masterpiece encompassing American history from the Revolution to the Old West to both World Wars!

We voted — and this red-white-and-blue Masterworks, packed with rare Captain America adventures, wins in a landslide! After an awe-inspiring origin retelling by comics legend Roy Thomas, Cap comes face-to-face with a twisted twelve-foot version of himself: Behold the Ameridroid! And if that wasn't unusual enough, wait until you see Cap squaring off against…the Lincoln Memorial?! It's a good thing Cap's got Nick Fury and the Super Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on his side — because the Red Skull is back, and he's out for blood! And don't miss a showdown with the Hulk that pits the green-skinned Goliath's brute strength against nothing but Cap's trusty shield and battle-hardened tactical skill! It's a can't-miss Marvel classic!
