Back in World War II, Steve Rogers dreamed of fighting in the war and serving his country. Unfortunately, his small body made him in incapable of being a soldier. However, an opportunity came when a scientist developed a serum that would create a super soldier. With Steve's dedication to his country, he was the perfect candidate for the experiment. The experiment was a success. The serum transformed Steve into the perfect super soldier. In a strange turn of events, a secret spy destroyed the super soldier formula and killed the scientist who created it. Steve became the only one of his kind in a blink of an eye. Regardless of the outcome, Steve Rogers dedicated his newfound powers to his nation and defeat the Nazi powers with his trusty shield. Steve Rogers would be recognized as Captain America throughout American History. Decades later, Captain America was found in a block of ice from his supposedly final mission. Once awakened, Captain America found himself in a newfound America, in a newfound world. The war was long over but America was still the nation that he had sworn to protect, so he continues on as America's hero!
