Captain America #20

Captain America strides forward with grim determination through a wreckage of shattered shield fragments and curling flames, flanked by a black-suited, blonde-haired woman at his back — it's a striking image of two heroes bracing for whatever comes next. The bold, yellow-green title lettering and that small inset figure of Cap in full run set the kinetic tone perfectly for this 1999 Marvel series. With Mark Waid writing and Andy Kubert and Jesse Delperdang delivering the cover art, "Danger in the Air!" promises the kind of tense, high-stakes storytelling this team does so well.
