Art by Sal Buscema (breakdowns), Mike Esposito (finishes), and John Tartaglione (finishes). Cover by Sal Buscema and Joe Sinnott. After meeting the mysterious Veda on the street outside his apartment, Captain America takes her to Avengers Mansion to talk.

And after listening to the sub's old audio tapes, Cap discovers an inconsistency in his origin! Why did he mention striking the water off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada, when he actually fell into the English Channel? To answer that question, the star-spangled avenger returns to Newfoundland...where the mystery only deepens! First (cameo) appearances of Lyle Dekker and the Ameridroid. Cameo appearances by the Falcon, Sharon Carter, Nick Fury, Jarvis, Marvel Man (aka Wendell Vaughn), Blue Streak, Texas Twister, and the Vamp. 32 pages. Cover price $0.35.
