Captain America finds himself fighting the new Scourge, but long before Sharon Carter can arrive to tell him it's one of his friends under the mask Steve Rogers figures out who is trying to kill him.
Most of the comic centers around Cap's fight with Scourge and the immediate aftermath involve Sharon Carter's actions to save the man she loved. It's clear Cap can forgive her for using lethal force to take down a former friend, but the question that lingers as the issue comes to a close is whether Sharon will ever forgive herself.
The episode is a weird mix of art by Patrick Zircher and Mike Deodato, Jr. The two styles don't really mesh all that well giving the comic a somewhat unsatisfying feel. The story itself works well, setting up more conflict and guilt for Cap with the loss of another friend (although I've never been a fan of D-Man and didn't even know he was even alive somewhere in the Marvel Universe so it's not like Codename: Bravo did this to the Falcon). Worth a look.
