The fight against the Sultan continues! When the heroes find themselves overwhelmed by the Sultan's evil forces, it's up to Peter Parker to use his genius intellect to save the world! Hey, I thought Cap was the star of this comic book!
After seemingly falling to their deaths, Spider-Man managed to web himself onto the flying Thunderhead Island, while Captain America, attacked by Sultan's biotrons as he was falling, made use one of their jetpacks to fly back to the island, where they seemingly stopped Sultan.
However, the missile previously launched turned out to be a decoy, while the island was the real nuke itself. Using the jetpack, Captain America flew Spider-Man down to the land to find a phone to warn the target, Washington D.C., but Sultan reappeared in a new biotron suit his identity microchip had entered.
Nevertheless, Captain America managed to stop Sultan by overloading his fingertip blasters, causing his robotic body to implode. Nick Fury arrived in time to blast the microchip with his gun, preventing it from entering another Biotron body. After Fury informed that the missile island was stopped by SHIELD interceptors, our heroes headed on home in victory.

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.
