"Captain America Combats Suicide"

Just got a heads-up via Joe.My.God.: Marvel has come out with a special number of Captain America:

Marvel is proud to announce the release of Captain America: A Little Help, an all-new story free to all fans via the Marvel Comics App (for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch) and Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited in an effort to help raise awareness of suicide prevention. Written by Dr. Tim Ursiny, PH.D., CBC, RCC and illustrated by Nick Dragotta, this powerful story shows what happens when one man on the verge of suicide is drawn into a chance encounter with Captain America—and he may be the Avenger’s only hope! This story is also available in I AM AN AVENGER #5, in comic stores nationwide today—both digital and print versions include contact information for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.
