Notes

  • Although there is no known connection, the Phantom demonstrates very similar tactics and modus operandi to the Ghost, who first appears in Iron Man #219.
  • The Captain America story is a retelling of his origin in Captain America Comics #1. Due to the short length of the story, a number of key details are omitted. Information such as the composition and creation Captain America's original shield and the exact origin and nature of his powers are glossed over. This was a common practice for all of teh retellings of Cap's origins as originally presented in the golden and atomic ages. Elements of Steve Roger's past will be reworked into a modern era origin for Captain America. These revelations occur much later when reader interest in all of Cap's past necessitated the restablishment of old continuity and working it into the Avenger's long history.
  • This marks the first of a number of consectutive World War II Era Captain America stories that will would be published in Tales of Suspense between this issue andTales of Suspense #71. After that time the feature would resume "present day" tales.
  • The Phantom won't appear again until Iron Age: Alpha #1.
  • This issue is reprinted in other comics and books, see references for more info.[2]
  • The entire Captain America story spans for months becuase of the early days when Cap was getting started and the months it took training Bucky.
