History
|
Steve Rogers was born during the Depression and grew up a frail youth in
a poor family. His father died when he was a child, his mother when he
was in his late teens. Horrified by newsreel footage of the Nazis in
Europe, Rogers was inspired to try to enlist in the Army. However,
because of his frailty and sickness, he was rejected. Overhearing the
boy's earnest plea to be accepted, General Chester Phillips of the U.S.
Army offered Rogers the opportunity to take part in a special experiment
called Operation: Rebirth. Rogers agreed and was taken to a secret
laboratory in Washington, D.C. where he was introduced to Dr. Abrahan
Erskine (code named: Prof. Reinstein), the creator to the Super-Soldier
formula.
After weeks of tests, Rogers was at last administered the Super-Soldier
serum. Given part of the compound intravenously and another part orally,
Rogers was then bombarded by "vita-rays," a special combination of
exotic (in 1941) wavelengths of radiation designed to accelerate and
stabilize the serum's effect on his body. Steve Rogers emerged from the
vita-ray chamber with a body as perfect as a body can be and still be
human. A Nazi spy who observed the experiment murdered Dr. Erskine mere
minutes after its conclusion. Erskine died without fully committing the
Super-Soldier formula to paper, leaving Steve Rogers the Sole
beneficiary of his genius.
Roger was then put
through an intensive physical and tactical training program, teaching
him gymnastics, hand-to-hand combat and military strategy. Three months
later, he was given his first assignment, to stop the Nazi agent called
the Red Skull. To help him become a symbolic counterpart to the Red
Skull, Rogers was given the red, white, and blue costume of Captain
America.
During the war, he
served as both a symbol of freedom and America's most effective special
operative. Then, during the final days of the war, he was trying to stop
a bomb-loaded drone-plane launched by Nazi technician Baron Heinrich
Zemo when the plane exploded, killing his partner Bucky; and throwing
him unhurt into icy Arctic waters. The Super-Soldier formula prevented
crystallization of Captain America's bodily fluid, allowing him to enter
a state of suspended animation. Decades later, he was rescued by the
newly-formed Avengers and became a cornerstone of the team. His might
undiminished. Captain America remains a symbol of liberty and justice. |
