CAPTAIN AMERICA #293-294 (1984): 1st Slayer and Sisters of Sin

Red Skull kidnaps a Vietnam vet, and friend of Cap, with a missing arm and gives him Devil Slayer’s costume and powers.

Cool.

Skull is leading Baron Zemo and Mother Superior in another scheme to kill Cap. Slayer manages to knock out Cap, so Nomad has to fight him alone–and he loses. But in the process, Skull’s brainwashing wears off so Captain America’s friend gets his own mind back and spares Nomad’s life.

This issue introduces Mother Superior’s posse, the Sisters of Sin.

Also, Bernie proposes to Steve Rogers, but he says no because he’s afraid his Captain America life will bring his enemies to his doorstep. But then she kisses him so he says yes. Pussy got him hooked.
