At the end of issue 223, Captain America survived his second battle against Animus. But the passenger train he was riding in was destroyed. Fortunately, Nick Fury arrives at the derailment site and gives Cap a ride to New York -- where the star-spangled avenger makes a fateful decision! Cap wants Mason Harding (of Madbomb fame) to use a special mind-probe device on him...in order to unlock the memories of Steve Rogers' childhood. But is the device safe to use? In the meantime, Veda sadly learns the fate of someone who crosses the Corporation. Cameo appearances by Dum Dum Dugan and Senator Kligger Stivak. (Note: This issue features the false origin of Steve Rogers.) 32 pages. Cover price $0.35. Grade: CGC 9.8 explanation of grade Condition: Used (collectible)
