The dreamy superhero, alter ego of Steven Rogers, stands 6’2″ with blonde hair and hypnotizing blue eyes that are complemented by his signature blue suit with a United States flag motif. He first appeared in Captain America Comics #1 in 1941 where he was injected with the “super soldier serum” making him the peak of human perfection – his best asset. Being the peak of human perfection entails a sculpted body and even more impressive intelligence.
Captain America rose to fame by aiding the U.S. in its fight against the Axis powers of World War II and continues to be an ally of the armed forces and a hero today. Since its debut, the comic book series, published by Marvel, has sold an estimated 210 million copies in 75 countries according to the 2007 article “Death to ‘America’: Comic book hero killed off” on MSNBC’s Web site.
