During the dark days of the early 1940s, a covert military experiment transformed frail Steve Rogers into America's first Super-Soldier - Captain America. Throughout World War II, Cap fought against the threat of the Axis powers. In the closing months of the conflict, a freak stroke of fate threw Captain America into a state of suspended animation. Decades later, the Sentinel of Liverty was revived to find himself a man out of time in a world he never imagined - a world in dire need of Captain America.
