On a Manhattan rooftop, Captain America and the Falcon are in dire straits! The Viper shot each of them with a poison dart, and now they only have minutes to live! In a cruel twist, the Viper tosses a vial of antidote on the roof before he leaves; however, it's out of reach for both men! But if somehow Cap can find a way to get the vial, the antidote will save his life and the Falcon's. And possibly give the Living Legend an extra boost -- for his next confrontation against the Cowled Commander! Cameo appearances by Redwing and Brian Muldoon. (Note: Captain America gains super-strength in this issue.) 36 pages. Cover price $0.20. Grade: CGC 9.8 explanation of grade Condition: Used (collectible)
