In "Powerless," a shocking discovery beneath the Arctic ice reunites the Avengers with Captain America, frozen since World War II—only to face a new threat when an alien force petrifies the team.

A legendary collaboration between Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, with George Roussos’ inks, this 2001 issue features a striking cover by Joe Quesada and Jimmy Palmiotti.
