Title:
Captain America
Synopsis:
“The Coming of...The Falcon!”
Continued from last issue....
The Red Skull has used the Cosmic Cube to switch bodies with his hated enemy Captain America. In an attempt of final revenge, he has Captain America teleported to Exile Island in the hope that his former minions, the Exiles will kill Captain America over the Red Skull’s most recent betrayal of them. As Captain America tries to find cover, the Red Skull pores over the Cosmic Cube watching the events unfold with eager eyes. When the Exiles walk the beach bemoaning the fact that the Red Skull stranded them on the island, Captain America tries to hide in a tree; however, the Red Skull uses the Cosmic Cube to break his cover, forcing him to have to fight the Exiles.
While Captain America has the superior fighting skills, he is not used to fighting in the Red Skull’s body and is soon overpowered by the group attack. Amused and believing that Captain America will meet his end, the Red Skull decides that he has seen enough and decides to amuse himself by parading around as Captain America some more. This proves to be the Red Skull’s mistake, as Captain America gets the aid of an unlikely ally: a falcon that seems to be trained to fight and defends him. With the Exiles distracted by the bird, Captain America manages to make a break for it and hide out in the jungle. There, he realizes that the whole time the Red Skull has been wearing a mask, and decides to take it off to help disguise himself better. Not willing to bank on the possibility that the Exiles have not seen the Red Skull’s true face, Cap uses clay from the ground to crudely disguise his features as extra cover.
