    Direct Edition. "Prison Reform!" Script by Al Milgrom. Pencils by Alan Kupperberg. Inks by Frank McLaughlin (pp. 1-18) and Al Milgrom (pp. 19-22). Cover by Al Milgrom. The new warden at the state penitentiary (from Tales of Suspense #62) has an idea to test the prison's high-tech security system! He wants to incarcerate Captain America (voluntarily) and see if the Living Legend can escape. Of course, escaping is a piece of cake for the star-spangled avenger! But before Cap leaves the facility, he challenges prison politics and cleans up the rec yard riffraff! Cameo appearances by Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen. (Notes: This cover is among a trio of Marvel covers in the early 1980s that featured super-heroes behind bars. See Amazing Spider-Man 219 and Avengers 224 also.) 36 pages. Cover price $0.50.
