    "Arena for a Fallen Hero!" Part 1 of 2. Script by Tony Isabella. Pencils by Frank Robbins. Inks by Frank Chiaramonte. Cover by Gil Kane and Mike Esposito. Sam Wilson has been in a comatose state since the end of the battle vs. the Red Skull. Fortunately, SHIELD has a plan -- albeit an unusual one -- to help the Falcon recover. The temporary SHIELD director (in Nick Fury's absence) wants Captain America to attack the Falcon as a form of shock therapy. However Cap thinks the idea is crazy! But before he can protest further, Cap begins seeing illusions on his greatest foes! And SHIELD gets the fight it wanted all along. Has SHIELD lost its collective minds? Cameo appearances by Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine, Eric Koeing, and Nightshade. (Notes: The letters page includes a farewell essay from Steve Englehart. The letters page also contains a lengthy letter from comics historian Peter Sanderson.) 32 pages. Cover price $0.25.
