"A Very Special Issue" of Captain America has been made available online as of this week. Captain America: A Little Help is a story which addresses the very real problem of suicide. Written by Doctor Tim Ursiny, the story is about a suicidal man, who is drawn into a chance encounter with Captain America himself that changes his life. The story is being launched with the guidance of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and will be available on Marvel Digital, as well as all electronic distribution sources such as the iPad or iPhone. We're not making any jokes about this, it's a serious subject and it's wonderful to see Marvel address it in a responsible manner. The story, drawn by Nick Dragotta, also appeared in the anthology series "I am an Avenger". You can read more about the issue below:
