In "L'étrange menace," Jack Kirby delivers a gripping tale of historical vengeance and modern-day conspiracy, as Captain America and the Falcon take on the Royalist Forces of America. With the help of General Heshin, William Taurey seeks to dismantle democracy using the Madbomb and a mercenary army, driven by a centuries-old grudge against Steve Rogers' family. Kirby’s dynamic art, inked by Giacoia and Esposito, brings the clash of ideals to life, while Romita’s cover captures the tension of a nation under threat.
