Captain America (Steve Rogers)

Cover art by Jack Kirby and Syd Shores.
Captain America, the alter ego of Steve Rogers is a Marvel Comics superhero. Steven Rogers started off as a frail fine arts student who studied illustration. The timeframe for this was before World War II, in the early 40s.
Despite being the perfect and famous hero, Rogers began without any special powers. On the contrary he was rather fragile and with weak health. He was given some Super-Soldier serum, which gave him super strength and speedy agility. His mental abilities grew strong also. Through vigorous training, he became a brilliant field commander in battle, never going wrong or making the wrong decision. He had mastered the art of Jiu-jitsu and judo, and combined it with his gynastics ability. He was able to throw objects with deadly accuracy.
Captain America’s mission was to serve the USA as an uber-soldier, an indestructible force, to fight against the Nazis. He served both as a counter-intelligence agent to destroy Nazi Germany’s head of terrorist groups, known as the Red Skull. Captain America was the codename he was given by the USA, to inspire confidence in the American people that the USA could win the war.
Captain America was the embodiment of the perfect human. Forever fighting for justice in the battle of good and evil, he was an all time hero that people aspired to.
Captain Steven Grant “Steve” Rogers is a World War II veteran, a founding member of the Avengers, and Earth’s first superhero. Rogers had suffered from numerous health problems, and upon America’s entry into World War II, was rejected from the service within the United States Army despite several attempts to enlist. Rogers was the only recipient of the Super Soldier Serum developed by Abraham Erskine under the Strategic Scientific Reserve. Determined to serve, Rogers ultimately volunteered for the Project Rebirth, which enhanced the frail Rogers’ body to the peak of human physicality. Mistrusted by Chester Phillips, the head of the SSR, Rogers was relegated to propaganda campaigns and was given the new moniker of Captain America. Rogers later joined the war with a combat role after he single-handedly liberated captured Allied prisoners of war.
