'''Captain America''' is a character from comic books published by Marvel Comics, created in 1941 by cartoonists Joe Simon and Jack Kirby. Originally conceived as a patriotic superhero who fights the Axis Powers during World War II, Captain America is the alter-ego of '''Steve Rogers''', a physically weak college-age student who volunteered to enlist in USA's Armed Forces. He was selected as a subject in the army's super-soldier program, which cured his sicknesses and transformed him into a man possessing peak physical condition. Cap's signature weapon is a shield, initially shaped like a heater shield before being replaced with the now-iconic circular design, made of vibranium and thus near-indestructible. |

Captain America is one of the most popular superheroes of all time because of his pure patriotic energy.
