Captain America


Captain America is just a boy. A skinny boy looking to join the army and defend the U S of A. Unfortunately, the army doesn't take skinny boys with asthma. Thankfully, he has a lot of heart. And because he has a lot of heart he is picked for a crazy science project. This crazy science project turns him into a super hero of sorts. I'm unlcear the extent of his abilities. He can run far and fast and for long distances. He is super strong. He has great accuracy when throwing circular objects. All these things combined together make Cap'n 'Merica!

This is another good backstory detailing how our beloved hero got to where he was today. Literally today, because at the end of the book he wakes up in present time. Which is sort of weird and I don't think I understand.

What is also cool is the integration with other Avengers story lines. Tony Stark's dad is in this as the brainy but cool defense contractor. Apparently his story line takes a turn for the worst if you have seen Iron Man.

I'm also sad for Captain America because he doesn't get to go on a date with his lady love.
