Synopsis
Dr. Faustus traps Captain America, Falcon, and Sharon in a staged WW II scenario, which produces the result he wants -- Peggy Carter, the girl Cap knew in the 1940s (and Sharon's sister) regains her memory. However, she can't help Faustus with information about Cap's weaknesses, which is the only reason he helped her. Faustus is defeated and the Carter family is reunited.

Indexer Notes

Peggy Carter first appeared (as Agent 13) in Tales of Suspense (Marvel, 1960 series) #75 (one panel), and #77, a flashback story of Captain America's WW II adventures. In later years, she would come to be identified as Sharon Carter's great-aunt rather than her sister.
