The cover, also by Avison and Shores, captures the high-stakes danger in a single, chilling image.

Gigo, a member of the Czar's nobility, owns a bowling alley where the kingpins of the officer's alley are hollowed out to fit .22 bullet guns and a catapult sends them sailing towards their intended victims. Gigo hates all democracies, but Cap and Bucky put a stop to his killings and hand him over to police.
