“This Way Lies Madness!”

In "This Way Lies Madness!", Captain America, Falcon, and Sharon are ensnared in a twisted illusion crafted by the cunning Dr. Faustus, plunging them into a fabricated World War II scenario designed to awaken Peggy Carter’s lost memories. Written by Steve Englehart and brought to life with dynamic art by Sal Buscema, inks by John Verpoorten, and colors by P. Goldberg, this 1973 issue delivers a psychological showdown where reality blurs and the past refuses to stay buried. The cover by Jim Starlin and Joe Sinnott captures the eerie tension of a hero trapped in a mind of his own making.

Dr. Faustus traps Captain America, Falcon, and Sharon in a staged WW II scenario, which produces the result he wants -- Peggy Carter, the girl Cap knew in the 1940s (and Sharon's sister) regains her memory. However, she can't help Faustus with information about Cap's weaknesses, which is the only reason he helped her. Faustus is defeated and the Carter family is reunited.
