☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis massive omnibus collects Jack Kirby's complete run on Captain America from the late 1970s, including issues #193-214 and the oversized Annual #3. Kirby returned to the character he co-created, delivering a wild, cosmic-infused saga that paired Steve Rogers with the Falcon (Sam Wilson) against threats like the Swine, the Corporation, and Arnim Zola. The volume showcases Kirby's signature dynamic art and imaginative storytelling during his second tenure at Marvel.
In "The Thing from the Black Hole Star!", Jack Kirby’s bold vision returns as Captain America and the Falcon strike deep into a Royalist Forces base, confronting a dangerous plot led by Taurey and his mercenary army. With the fate of democracy at stake and a centuries-old vendetta driving the enemy, Steve Rogers faces not just a modern threat—but a legacy of war reborn. Jack Kirby’s dynamic storytelling and art, joined by Frank Giacoia and Mike Esposito’s inks, bring this high-stakes mission to life, with cover art by Jack Kirby and John Romita capturing the intensity of the conflict.
In "Bicentennial Battles," Captain America is flung across time and history, each moment a new challenge: dodging bullets in a World War I dogfight, trading punches with John Sullivan in the early 1900s, aiding a fugitive slave from bounty hunters, witnessing the first atomic test, and surviving the chaos of the Chicago fire—all before returning to a bewildered Mister Buda. The story unfolds with Kirby’s signature blend of action and historical texture, weaving through pivotal moments with the same heroism that defines its title.
In "The Trojan Horde," Captain America and the Falcon launch a covert mission into a Royalist Forces stronghold, where they confront the escalating threat of Taurey and his mercenary army, the Royalist Forces of America, backed by the devastating "Big Daddy" Madbomb. With General Heshin's aid and a centuries-old vendetta driving Taurey’s crusade, democracy itself hangs in the balance as Steve Rogers faces a personal reckoning tied to a Revolutionary War legacy.
In "The Rocks Are Burning!", Captain America and the Falcon emerge from the Elite's brutal kill-derby with victory—but reject the prize, sparking chaos as the crowd turns on them. As General Fist’s forces overwhelm the base, Cheer Chadwick and her "Poppa" narrowly escape with plans to detonate the "Big Daddy" Madbomb on the bicentennial, leaving the fate of the day uncertain.
In this heartfelt 2010 tale from *Captain America* by Jack Kirby, Steve Rogers and the Falcon track down the elusive creator of the Madbombs, Professor Mason Harding—only to find themselves drawn into a quiet, unexpected connection when Cap meets Harding’s daughter, Carol, who is battling a serious illness. As the mission unfolds, personal bonds begin to form in the shadow of a larger mystery.
In "The Man Who Sold the United States," Professor Mason Harding makes a desperate break from the Elites, seeking help from Captain America and the Falcon as the threat of the "Big Daddy" Madbomb looms. With Malcolm Taurey pulling the strings, the fate of the nation hangs in the balance.
