The Avengers!: Picking up where the previous issue left off, a very agitated Prince Namor Captain America showing underneath his tattered RAF uniform. He awakens disoriented, and... (read more here) Throughout this series, there will be many Invaders* tie-ins. For the record, and for the purpose of future reference, The Invaders (sometimes called the Liberty Legion or the All Winners Squad) were comprised of; Captain America and Bucky, Prince Namor a.k.a. The Sub-Mariner, the android Jim Hammond a.k.a. The Human Torch, the teenage mutant Thomas Raymond a.k.a. Toro, Brian Falsworth a.k.a. Union Jack, Jacqueline Falsworth Crichton a.k.a. Spitfire, Bob Frank a.k.a. The Whizzer, and Madeline Joyce Frank a.k.a. Miss America. After the disappearance of Captain America I, in 1945, which was depicted in this issue, President Truman replaced Steve Rogers in The Invaders, with William Nasland a.k.a. Spirit Of ‘76, as Captain America II. Later, Nasland would be replaced, in the All Winners Squad, by Jeffery Mace a.k.a. The Patriot, as Captain America III. Then, a madman named “Steve Rogers” a.k.a. The Grand Director will pretty much proclaim himself Captain America IV (Actually, this guy was Steve Rogers the original Captain America, during the 1950’s, until this Avengers #4 story made it so he couldn’t have been. He was later revised to have been a nutcase imposter. See Young Men #24). Still to come; a poor schlub named Roscoe as Captain America V (See Captain America #181), and John Walker a.k.a. Super-Patriot II, as Captain America VI (Later to become U.S. Agent. See Captain America #333). The lattermost happens, because of some ditsy government proclamation about the persona of Captain America being a govenrment appointed post, and Captain America I can go along, or step down. After something less than a year as “The Captain”, Steve Rogers will finally get his preferred original identity back. Presented in animated form as To Live Again (Segment 3) of The Marvel Superheroes Show/Captain America.
