Solicit Synopsis
In this second installment of a series exploring the storied history of America's greatest champion, Howard Chaykin pulls back the Iron Curtain on one of Captain America's wiliest nemeses -- Soviet Russia and her never-ending parade of spies, saboteurs, fifth columnists…so many we had to make this story double-sized! Before his role in “The Death of Captain America,” no one was more patriotic than the Cap of the Fifties, even if he does have Steve Rogers’ shoes to fill. Unfortunately, Nick Fury, a newly minted operative of the CIA, isn't about to let him off the hook that easily. But Cap and Fury better start working together, or they'll find themselves buried in Reds! PLUS: a bonus reprinting of a classic Cap tale from the fabulous fifties!
Trivia
- Joseph R. McMurphy is based on Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy, who was known for fueling fears of widespread Communist subversion in the United States. McMurphy's hearing on Nick Fury is based on the Army–McCarthy hearings.
- Ed Murtaugh is based on journalist Edward R. Murrow, who contributed to the censure of Joseph McCarthy.
