Cover by Gil Kane, Frank Giacoia, and John Romita Sr. (alterations). Just when the Red Skull appears on the verge of defeat, he activates his sleeper agent: the Falcon! What? Apparently, years ago on the Island of the Exiles, the skull used the cosmic cube to transform the criminal known as Snap Wilson into Sam Wilson -- the social worker and future flying Falcon! So now the Third Reich's master of terror pits the Falcon vs. Captain America! It's a fight Cap doesn't want to fight, but one he has to win -- to stop the Red Skull. Cameo appearances by Sharon Carter and Dave Cox. Flashback cameo by the Red Skull to recap the events of Captain America 117 & 118 and to amend the Falcon's origin. (Notes: The Red Skull appears next in Super-Villain Team-Up #10. This issue completes Steve Englehart's outstanding 3-year run as the writer of the Captain America 1st series -- highlighted by the Secret Empire storyline; the co-creations of Nomad and Nightshade; and the returns of the 1950s Captain America and Madame Hydra (as the new Viper). 32 pages.
