Captain America No. 16 [Marvel Legends Reprint] #16
In "Red Glare," Captain America faces his most personal trial yet when the Red Skull declares a brutal new era of survival of the fittest, pushing America to the brink. With the Watcher's chilling verdict—that only death can stop the Skull—Cap is stripped of his strength and reverted to his frail, pre-Super Soldier form, testing the limits of his will. Written by Mark Waid and brought to life with powerful art by Andy Kubert, inks by Jesse Delperdang and Joe Kubert, and vibrant colors by Chris Sotomayor and Jean Segarra, this 2003 Marvel Legends Reprint captures a defining moment in Cap’s legacy, with a cover by Andy Kubert and Jesse Delperdang.
