“--The Last Movie!”

In "The Last Movie!", Captain America finds himself caught in a surreal twist when the Red Skull orchestrates a film about his own demise—only to have the production unravel as Cap fights to break free from the mind-controlled Ameridroid. With the recently revealed fake Nomad exposed and a movie exec pulling the plug, Cap must confront the Nihilist Order and the returning Red Skull, aided by the dying android’s final, unexpected intervention. Written by J. M. DeMatteis and illustrated by Mike Zeck—with cover art by Zeck and John Beatty—this 1981 Marvel classic blends psychological tension and action in a story that redefines the limits of heroism, all for a 50-cent price tag.
