Notes:
Part 1 of 5. 2nd-ever meeting of Cap and Fury, following the story in SGT. FURY #13 (December 1964). 1st on-camera appearance of "THEM", following mentions in STRANGE TALES #142-143 & 145 (March-April, June 1966). The hooded outfits worn by the evil scientists appear inspired by the ones worn in the 1st James Bond film, DR. NO (1962). Identity of "The Imperator" would not be revealed until STRANGE TALES #156 (May 1967). Cap and Fury team-up to battle mysterious invaders in the flashback in STRANGE TALES #160-161 (September-October 1967), apparently shortly after this episode. Meanwhile, this story continues directly into STRANGE TALES #146 (July 1966), while "THEM" also continue to appear (peripherally) in the next several issues of TALES OF SUSPENSE. The android-growing tanks appear to pay tribute to THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD (1951). Thanks to Jack Kirby, D.N.A. experiments would play a large part in SUPERMAN'S PAL, JIMMY OLSEN #133-148 (November 1970-April 1972). The "flying shock rollers" are identical to the ones used by Obi-Wan Kenobi to train Luke Skywalker in the film STAR WARS (1977)!
Notes:
Part 1 of 3. 1st modern-day appearance of The Red Skull. The suspended animation via experimental gas bit is a tribute to BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25TH CENTURY. The truth about Count Royale & A.I.M. was under suspicion in STRANGE TALES #146 (June 1966); as this episode exposes their true motives, it most likely came out afterwards; yet, according to the dialogue, it must be a flashback to just before it, as Count Royale is shown on his way to The Heli-Carrier, and there is no break between STRANGE TALES #146-147 (June-July-1966). 1st appearance of The Cosmic Cube.
Notes:
Part 2 of 3. The palm magnets Cap uses to latch onto the Keeper's jet were later used by Nick Fury in STRANGE TALES #166 (March 1968). Synopsis, notes, and other corrections submitted by Henry Kujawa via GCD Errors list (August 2007).
Notes:
Part 3 of 3. The Red Skull would return in TALES OF SUSPENSE (Marvel, 1959 series) #89 (May 1967). Synopsis, notes, and other corrections submitted by Henry Kujawa via the GCD Errors list (August 2007).
Notes:
In all panels in which she appears Agent 13's face (Sharon Carter, as yet unnamed) is redrawn by John Romita.
Notes:
Nick Fury has become a continuing supporting character in Cap's strip by this time.
Notes:
This new logo was used until October 1982.
Notes:
Steranko plot per letter from the artist in Fantastic Fanzine # 12, 1970. Steranko explained: "My Captain America tales were..written by Stan Lee over my plots (the idea of reinstating Rick Jones as another Bucky was Stan's directive"
Notes:
Letters from: Robin Stover, Bruce Dravis, Eric Nash, Brian Clancey, Roger Vanous, Albert Rodriquez, Kenwood Dennard, and Joe Trainor.
Notes:
Part 2 of 3. Page 9 contains Steranko's 2nd tribute to Salvador Dali (following the cover of NICK FURY #7). The "Spectro-Ray", which reveals no hidden weapons on Rick, is strikingly similar to the effect used by Infinata in the 1968 ROCKET ROBIN HOOD cartoon "Revolt In The Fifth Dimension" (and its 1969 SPIDER-MAN cartoon remake). One of the kidnappers on page 11 bears a striking resemblance to Stan Lee!
Notes:
Tom Sutton paid tribute to this cover in his story "Superhero!" in Eerie #32 (Warren, March 1971); the same panel also appeared on that issue's cover.
Notes:
Steranko plotted this story, with Stan Lee writing the dialogue as the artist confirmed in Fantastic Fanzine # 10, 1970. According to Steranko he lettered and inked the centerspread. Part 3 of 3.
Notes:
An illustration of Captain America's shield between pages 18 and 19 of the story "The Strange Death of Captain America!"
Notes:
