"Cap and Rick face their first real test as partners when a rampaging Hulk terrorizes New York City, forcing Cap to confront his fears about Rick's readiness. After a tense standoff and a surprising turn in the Avengers Mansion, Rick dons Bucky Barnes’ old uniform and steps into the role Cap has long hesitated to grant. With HYDRA's plot to poison the city’s water supply unfolding, the duo must fight their way through a series of escalating battles, proving they can stand together under fire. Written by Jim Steranko and Stan Lee, with art by Steranko and inks by Joe Sinnott, this pivotal issue marks Rick’s official rise as Cap’s new partner—drawn in bold lines and dramatic shadows. The cover by Jack Kirby and Vince Colletta captures the moment with dynamic energy, a striking image of the pair facing their first true trial."
