Captain America #425

In "Fighting Chance Part One: Super Patriot Games," Captain America faces a crisis that threatens both his body and his legacy. With the Super Soldier serum deteriorating and only a year of active duty left, Cap is blindsided when a new Super Patriot—armed with a stolen shield and a dangerous agenda—attacks a political event, leaving bystanders hurt and Cap's reputation in tatters. As he struggles to clear his name, he's ambushed by illusions of the original Master's of Evil, only to be further undermined when the impostor Super Patriot appears, forcing Cap to question who he can trust. Written by Mark Gruenwald and illustrated by Dave Hoover, with inks by Danny Bulanadi and colors by George Roussos, this pivotal issue sees Cap at his most vulnerable—physically, publicly, and morally. The cover, also by Dave Hoover, captures the tension of a hero on the edge.
