CAPTAIN AMERICA has seen some of comics' greatest creative pairings - and the team of J.M. DeMatteis and Mike Zeck is among the very best! Their celebrated tenure on the star-spangled Avenger continues here with true Cap classics. Vermin, a character who will later be integral to DeMatteis and Zeck's iconic "Kraven's Last Hunt," debuts! Cap joins with Nick Fury to battle Baron Strucker and Hydra! Steve Rogers' girlfriend figures out he's Captain America! And in the storyline that ties it all together, a ruthless new Baron Zemo is unleashed! He's the heir to the man who sent Cap and Bucky plunging into the icy Atlantic decades earlier - and this new archnemesis is taking no prisoners! Plus: The Falcon runs for office! Collecting CAPTAIN AMERICA (1968) #270-280 and ANNUAL #6, and material from MARVEL FANFARE (1982) #5.
A native New Yorker, writer J.M. DeMatteis has been one of comics’ most respected writers for nearly three decades. Ranging from the introspective psychological drama of Moonshadow to the offbeat comedy of Justice League to the autobiographical Brooklyn Dreams, he’s written from nearly every perspective in graphic storytelling. His long list of credits includes Captain America, Defenders, Justice League International, the groundbreaking Spider-Man storyline “Kraven’s Last Hunt," Spectre and more. His recent work includes the acclaimed children's novel Imaginalis and the popular comics-prose hybrid Abadazad books.

Mike Zeck regularly drew Master of Kung Fu, Power Man and Iron Fist, Spectacular Spider-Man and other hits of the late 1970s. He joined J.M. DeMatteis on a remarkable Captain America run, reviving Baron Zemo, Nomad and Deathlok. In Secret Wars, he helped introduce the alien costume that eventually became a component of Venom; reuniting with DeMatteis, he drew the groundbreaking “Kraven’s Last Hunt” storyline for the Spider-Man titles. He has also drawn DC’s Aquaman, Green Lantern, Lobo and others.
