Synopsis for "The Sleeper Shall Awake!"
Captain America has just finished telling his fellow Avengers (Quicksilver, Hawkeye, and the Scarlet Witch) of his World War 2 adventure in Greymoore Castle, tieing up all the loose ends of that tale for them before retiring for the night.
That evening, Cap's memories drift back to World War 2 and to his final battle against the Red Skull where the Skull had supposedly died in an cave in of his secret bunker, but not before warning Cap about "Der Tag" (German for "the day"): A date 20 years after the wars end where three Nazi sleeper agents would be awaken to start the Third Reicht once more.
Realizing that he thought of this because this date is actually coming to pass, Cap recalls a metal box he took from the Red Skull during that battle. Recovering it, he finds inside a list naming the three Nazi sleeper agents.
In a small Bavarian town, the first of these sleepers, Von Kimmer has hired men to release the first of three Sleeper robots, which upon activation begins smashing it's way across the Bavarian country side. Captain America arrives just in time to see the robot smash through a village.
Attempting to stop the giant robot, Cap soon finds his weapons and skill have no effect on the giant robot. Cap ends up following the robot, whle elsewhere in the town of Telbeck, the second sleeper Erica Wolfmann is arranging to have the second Sleeper robot reactivated. This story is continued next issue...
