Captain America #8

In "Powerless Part 3," Captain America and Sharon Carter face off against the newly formed Serpent Squad, pushing their limits in a brutal showdown. Just as they emerge victorious, Cap suddenly loses his super-strength, leaving him vulnerable—and Sharon realizes the true threat behind the madbombs may be closer than they thought. Written by Ed Brubaker and illustrated by Alan Davis, with inks by Mark Farmer, colors by Laura Martin, and letters by VC's Joe Caramagna, the issue’s cover by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer captures the moment’s intensity.
