Issue Description

It’s Captain America versus the malevolent Moonhunter! When a bounty is placed on the wolf humanoid, Ferocia, Captain America and Wolverine seek to save her from those who wish to capture her!

This issue features two stories.

"City of Wolves" - In the woods of Massachusetts, Moonhunter hauls a werewolf up to his hover-cycle, while below Captain America watches and Dr. Druid tries to recover from the wounds inflicted by the she-wolf. After checking on Druid, who is mystically healing himself, Cap hops onto his Skycycle and pursues Moonhunter. The armored intruder outmaneuvers Captain America and disables the Skycycle as Cap leaps onto his quarry's hovercraft. Moonhunter fires two rounds from his pistol at Cap and the Avenger falls to the trees below. Watched by Wolverine, Moonhunter lands in the town of Starkesboro, hauling the captive werewolf into one of the buildings.

Captain America, recovered from his fall, removes the slugs lodged in the chain-mail of his suit, and goes to collect Dr. Druid to begin the trek to follow Moonhunter.

At Avengers Headquarters, Dr. Kincaid examines the minimally responsive D- Man, as Jarvis looks on.

In the town, Nightshade reports to her master Dredmund about the werewolf Moonhunter captured not being 'one of theirs', but one named Ferocia she had previously encountered. Dredmund surmises that other lupine beings are being drawn to Starkesboro by the Moongem. Their discussion is interrupted by an alarm signaling an intruder. Outside, Wolverine battles a pack of werewolves, until Moonhunter arrives and, with four shotgun blasts, renders the mutant unconscious.

Captain America and Dr. Druid finally arrive at Starkesboro only to find themselves immediately surrounded by lycanthropes.

"Taken to Task" - Rachel Leighton (Diamondback) dreams of her training as a super-criminal under the guidance of Taskmaster. There was a workout overseen by Blanche Sltznski, followed by combat training by Brock Rumlow, whom Rachel recognized as the killer of her brother. Rumlow, now known as Crossbones, holds her prisoner in an oubliette in upstate New York. She wakes up to his arrival, ready to continue her training.

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.
