In 1940, as America prepared for war, a frail young man volunteered for an experiment that transformed him into the ultimate physical specimen. From the Pacific Theater to Eastern Europe, World War II was in full swing; the United States entered the flay with Captain America, star-spangled Sentinel of Liberty, as its standard-bearer! Steve Rogers battled Nazis until a freak mishap trapped him in suspended animation for decades. When he awakened, Captain America was truly a man out of time, though no less committed to fighting the evils of this perilous new era. Today, he is a cornerstone of the Avengers, Earth's Mightiest Heroes ... and a living legend who inspires awe in friends and foes alike!
