Synopsis for "The Lonesome Death of Jack Monroe"

This issue details the last year of Jack Monroe's life. About one year ago, Jack was disgnosed by Dr. Jane Foster as deteriorating due to his previous nano manipulation coupled with the tainted super soldier serum in his body. He often hallucinates and this condition worsens with time. He also drinks to excess and begins seeing ordinary citizens as criminals much as he did in the latter parts of the 1950's. Jack does not reveal his condition to any of his friends including his old partner Steve Rogers. Instead, Jack moves from New York, to Washington D.C., and eventually to Pittsburg. In his warped reality, he wants to save his young friend Julia Winters from evil drug pushers. The "drug pushers" are in actuality selling ice cream. On a quiet night outside of his favorite bar, Jack is assasinated by the Winter Soldier and unceremoniously put into a trunk of a car.
