Marvel Tales: Captain America #1
"Captain America" in Marvel Tales: Captain America #1 (2019) brings a classic clash of ideals to life, as Steve Rogers—relaxing at Avengers Mansion—faces off against a gang of mercenary thieves who underestimate him as "just an acrobat." Written by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, with art by Jack Kirby and inks by Chic Stone, the story captures the spirit of the original Cap with crisp energy and grounded tension. The cover, a dynamic collaboration by Jen Bartel and Frank Miller with inks by Joe Rubinstein, perfectly frames the moment of quiet resolve before action.

While Cap lounges around Avengers Mansion, thinking about Bucky and his place in the world, a gang of costumed thugs break in intent on stealing any secrets or weapons Stark may have lying about the place, to sell for profit. They figure Cap's "just an acrobat." They figured wrong! He mops up the place with them single-handed, then comments how lucky they were his partners weren't around... "They're really tough!"
