Issue Description

The Black Panther's got a gift for the new Cap: a new shield! And when Cap uses the shield to go after the guys invading the Serpent Society's headquarters, well, everybody had better watch out!

D-man and Vagabond are practicing their fighting skill out by Cap’s pool when Jack catches them in an awkward position. The mini argument is interrupted when a hovercraft from Wakanda shows up and Cap hops aboard. On board he is gifted with a new shield and news that the Serpent Society needs his help. He assembles the team and they fly to New York State to find Diamondback, the person who sent to distress call.

They find her and a semi-conscious Sidewinder, and after she explains that another snake group is taking over the Society, Cap agrees to help. He sends Vagabond to the local hospital with Sidewinder, and the rest of the group fallow Diamondback to her secret headquarters.

In the headquarters the team finds Viper and her group torquing the Society members and they learn some of the weaker minded ones have already joined Viper. Cap fights Viper but she escapes and Cap is forced to break off the chase to save some of the loyal Society members.

Meanwhile Vagabond and Sidewinder get attacked by Black Racer, but due to her earlier training she is able to overpower the villain and save the day.

Volume Description

Captain America is on his own at last, in the comic that started it all, the Super Soldier's story begins.

Continued from Tales of Suspense issue 99. Tales of Suspense was one of several horror-like anthologies that Marvel was publishing in the early 1960's, but just like its counterpart Tales To Astonish, after nearly one hundred issues the series changed its name, after it already went a completely new route featuring characters such as Iron Man and Captain America instead of horror stories. So it was that in 1968, the series became Captain America Volume 1 with its hundredth issue. Captain America ran on for three more decades much like its Incredible Hulk counterpart. The series concluded with issue 454, when the series was relaunched as Captain America vol. 2. After issue number 50 of Captain America vol. 5, that series returned to its original numbering started here in Volume 1, celebrating it's 600th issue.

This is the first solo Captain America series published by Marvel Comics, the previous series, Captain America Comics, had been published by Marvel’s predecessors Atlas and Timely respectively.
