Storyline

Captain America breaks free of the Yellow Claw's mind control and brings the injured Nick Fury to SHIELD for medical help. Later, he learns from Sharon that Peggy has disappeared from home and that he has been evicted from his apartment. Peggy arrives in New York and finds the Falcon, hoping he can lead her to Cap. Meanwhile, the Claw has broken into the Museum of Natural History and revives several mummies, sending them against the heroes when they arrive. He then revives a long-dead Egyptian princess and transfers her life force to restore his comatose niece Suwan.
