About this Collection

This Panini UK collection gathers a selection of Captain America stories from across the Marvel Universe, featuring the Sentinel of Liberty alongside allies like Bucky Barnes, Iron Man, and Thor, as well as foes such as the Red Skull and Crossbones. The volume includes appearances by a wide array of characters from the Avengers, the Initiative, and beyond, offering a broad cross-section of Cap's world in a single trade paperback. It's a sampler-style release aimed at readers looking for a varied introduction to Captain America's adventures and his place in the larger Marvel landscape.

"An Ending" delivers a gripping twist in the Captain America saga, as the Red Skull unveils a shocking truth: Sam Wilson, the Falcon, was once a thief named "Snap" Wilson, manipulated into a new identity using the Cosmic Cube. With a superhuman bond to his bird companion Redwing and a mind controlled by the Skull’s schemes, Wilson becomes the ultimate sleeper agent in a deadly plot against Captain America—only for Gabe Jones and Peggy Carter to rally SHIELD in a desperate counterattack on the Skull’s stronghold. Written by Steve Englehart and John Warner, with dynamic art by Frank Robbins and inks by Mike Esposito and Frank Giacoia, this issue stands as a pivotal moment in the Falcon’s story, illustrated with bold energy and layered with suspense.

The Red Skull reveals that Sam Wilson was, in reality, a criminal named "Snap" Wilson. Wilson crashed on the Island of Exiles attempting to steal a planeload of contraband from his boss. Seeing an opportunity to defeat Captain America using a sleeper agent, the Red Skull used the Cosmic Cube to give Wilson a new personality, a new set of memories and a superhuman link with Redwing. The Red Skull attempt to use the mind-controlled Falcon to kill Captain America but Gabe Jones and Peggy Carter manage to call in SHIELD reinforcements to attack the Red Skull's headquarters.
