Issue Description
Nomad, the Falcon, and D-Man finally track down Steve Rogers and convince him to get back into costume— but it's not the Captain America costume!
The team of Steve's former partners Nomad, Falcon, and D-Man set out to find their leader. They eventually find his van that fell into a chasm prior to his fight with Brother Nature last issue. D-Man offers to pull it out in an effort to impress the others. Meanwhile, a group of snake-themed villains inspired by the Serpent Society rob a hotel, take hostages, and commandeer a room. Back at the van the group of former partners discusses their opinions of what Steve should do with his future until Steve ends up showing up. He's greeted well and he decides that he'll be a hero even if he isn't Captain America. Instead he opts for the name "Captain" and wears a black version of his previous costume that D-Man had made. The team hears about the situation in Vegas through the Captain America Hotline and D-Man uses his vast resources to get them their in a handful of hours. When the team arrives they are not greeted well, instead they are pushed to the side and, although it pains Steve, the team decides to go against police orders and attack the serpent villains. After the battle the team is arrested and Cap reflects on his new responsibilities he has since he is no longer Captain America.
The cover of this issue is an homage to the cover of Avengers Vol. 1 #4 which marked the first appearance of Captain America after WWII.

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.
