Während ein Krieg der Helden das Marvel-Universum erschüttert, hat der diabolische Red Skull heimlich die Schachfiguren auf dem Spielbrett neu verteilt. Das aktuelle Klima von Angst, Hass und Misstrauen ist perfekt, um mit seiner ultrarechten Terrorbande Hydra gewaltsam nach der Macht zu greifen. Doch ausgerechnet sein wichtigster Agent verfolgt eigene Ziele. Captain America ist entschlossen die Welt zu retten, indem er Hydras Einfluss friedlich ausdehnt. Aber noch steht ihm jemand im Weg: Ein Inhuman, der die Zukunft vorraussieht, könnte sein doppeltes Spiel jeden Moment verraten. Und er hat sogar den Tod von Steve Rogers prophezeit. Vergesst, was ihr über den Wächter der Freiheit zu wissen glaubt. Marvels neuer Shooting-Star, Ex-Politiker Nick Spencer, und seine zeichnenden Adjutanen Javier Pina und Minguel Sepulveda erschüttern die Legende von Captain America in ihren Grundfesten! Außerdem: Eine brandneue Story von Comic-Ikone Tim Sale un ein Abenteuer von Greg Rucka und Cap-Legende Mike Perkins!" (Verlagstext) Captain America ist eine US-amerikanische Comicfigur, ein Superheld, der ein Kostüm in den Farben der Flagge der Vereinigten Staaten trägt. Geschaffen wurde sie von Jack Kirby und Joe Simon für den Verlag Timely Publications, einen Vorgänger des heutigen Verlags Marvel Comics. Captain America erschien zuerst 1941 in Heft 1 der Comicserie Captain America Comics. Die zu Kriegszeiten als Propaganda angelegten Comicgeschichten ließen Captain America häufig gegen Nazis, Saboteure und andere Versinnbildlichungen der damaligen Kriegsgegner antreten. In späteren Jahren wurden die Geschichten mit Captain America von vielen Autoren zur Sozialkritik eingesetzt, jedoch gestaltet sich die Rezeption insbesondere in Deutschland schwierig. Im Laufe der Jahre erschienen Figuren mit unterschiedlichen Namen im Kostüm des Captain America. Die ursprüngliche und bekannteste Figur trägt - als Alter Ego - den Namen Steve Rogers. Die Entstehungsgeschichte von Captain America wurde erstmals in Captain America Comics #1 aus dem Jahr 1941, dem ersten Auftritt der Figur, geschildert: Der ursprüngliche Träger des Namens und Kostüms von Captain America ist ein Amerikaner namens Steven Grant Rogers (von anderen Figuren zumeist "Steve" genannt). Obwohl er zu Beginn des Zweiten Weltkriegs ausgemustert wird, will er seinem Land dennoch dienen. Daher wurde er für ein Experiment der Regierung ausgewählt. Ein geheimes "Supersoldatenserum" (namens Infinity-Formula-Serum) soll gewöhnlichen Menschen zu körperlicher Höchstleistung verhelfen. Zwar ist das Experiment ein Erfolg, doch wird der verantwortliche Wissenschaftler von einem Spion der Nazis getötet, weshalb Steve am Ende der einzige Supersoldat bleibt. Mit einem Kostüm in den Farben der amerikanischen Nationalflagge ausgestattet, wird er zu Captain America und kämpft als solcher für sein Land gegen die Kriegsgegner sowie deren Spione und Saboteure. Neben seinem Kostüm trägt Captain America einen Schild, der sowohl zur Verteidigung als auch als Wurfwaffe eingesetzt werden kann. Der bekannteste dieser Schilde, der erstmals in Heft 2 von Captain America Comics zum Einsatz kam, besteht aus einer Legierung mit dem fiktiven Metall Vibranium. Ihm zur Seite steht ein junger Mann namens James Buchanan Barnes, der unter dem Namen "Bucky" zu Steves Partner wird. Die erste in Deutschland veröffentlichte Geschichte mit Captain America (damals noch unter dem eingedeutschten Namen Captain Amerika) erschien 1967 in Heft 14 der Reihe Hit Comics aus dem Bildschriftenverlag (BSV), das einen Nachdruck der ersten vier Seiten der Geschichte aus dem US-Heft Tales of Suspense #78 (erste Serie) enthielt.
