Deadly Cargo: In the Amalgam universe, Super Soldier combines the origins of Superman and Captain America. This story is set during WW II and finds Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen traveling to occupied France where, along with Sgt. Rock and the Howling Commandos, they battle the War Wheel. In the Amalgam universe, the War Wheel was built by Baron Zemo and Lex Luthor. This is the first time we have actual villains to associate with the War Wheel.

This appearance and the previous guest shot in Secret Origins #14 turned the War Wheel into a character in its own right, with an existance independant of the Blackhawks.
