Story: CAPTAIN AMERICA#? by Mark Gruenwald (writer)
and Paul Neary? (artist)
Synopsis: The Constrictor is in the hospital recovering from
injuries in
the previous issue. An overweight nurse pulls out a sawed-off shotgun.
Before she can kill the Constrictor, though, Captain America intervenes.
The nurse, actually Scourge, manages to escape.
Is it a key part of the Scourge storyline? Beyond being his
first
failed
hit, no
Is it part of the main story in this issue? Partly since
Constrictor is
in the hospital for crossing the Serpent Society, whom Captain America has
started investigating as a result
Comments: Despite the assassin's apparent weight, s/he seems
to
be
wearing a padded suit, and thus is probably the same assassin as usual
