The mind-bending Doctor has captured Sharon Carter, A.K.A. Agent 13 - but little does Cap know that Faustus also has Peggy Carter, Cap's long-lost love from World War II! Then, Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D. conscript Cap into the fight against the Yellow Claw. But the real menace to mankind is subtly concealed: A Secret Empire moves behind the face of American power!
