"Captain America's Love Story" Part 6 of 8. Script by Jack Kirby. Pencils by Jack Kirby. Inks by Frank Giacoia and Mike Esposito. Cover by Jack Kirby and Frank Giacoia. Finally, the star-spangled avenger and the Falcon get a lead on the whereabouts of the Madbomb! Or at least a lead on the person who likely built it. An electronics genius named Mason Harding is the Pentagon's prime suspect, and he lives in a sprawling estate on the Eastern seaboard. Cap and his winged partner head to the east coast and make plans to infiltrate the large manor. But when the shield-slinger slips inside a second floor window, he's taken aback by the person he meets: Carol Harding -- the daughter of Mason Harding. She is very charming...and also very ill. Cap realizes the raid on the mansion must wait -- until Carol is
safe -- even though it might delay the discovery of the Madbomb. Is this true love? Cameo appearance by General Argyle Fist. (Notes: Also this month Marvel Treasury Special -- Captain America's Bicentennial Battles --
was published with new story and art by Jack Kirby. The letters page includes Marvel Value Stamp series B #91 (Silver Surfer). There exists a 30-cent cover price variant for this issue.) 32 pages.
Cover price $0.25.
