Captain America Bio

Captain America, also known as Steve Rogers, is one of the most iconic superheroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and Marvel Comics. Born during the Great Depression, Steve was a frail young man who volunteered for a secret government program during World War II. He became the first Super Soldier and took on the mantle of Captain America, fighting for freedom, justice, and the American way.

Armed with his indestructible vibranium shield and enhanced strength, agility, and endurance, Captain America became a symbol of hope during the war — and later, a central figure in the battle to save the universe.
