Captain America, LEGO® Marvel super-soldier and leader of the Avengers

Captain America

Predating many of the familiar superheroes of today, Captain America made his debut in 1941, in a Timely Comics (the forerunner to Marvel Comics) publication titled, Captain America Comics. The character soon became a popular wartime superhero, taking on German and Japanese forces with patriotic vigor.
The release in 1944 of the Captain America movie serial made Captain America the first Marvel Comics character to exist beyond the pages of a comic book. In more recent years, Captain America has starred in many movies, as well as making cameo appearances in others.
In 2011, the character featured in Captain America: The First Avenger, then The Avengers in 2012, Captain America: The Winter Soldier in 2014, Avengers: Age of Ultron in 2015, Captain America: Civil War in 2016, Avengers: Infinity War in 2018, and Avengers: Endgame in 2019.

With his fame extending way beyond his beloved United States, Captain America has spawned a plethora of kids’ action figures and superhero toys, including a range of LEGO® sets that have proved a popular gift for kids of all ages.

Captain America (Steve Rogers), patriotic super-soldier and leader of the Avengers.

When a weak, young man called Steve Rogers received an experimental serum developed by the United States’ government to boost its effectiveness in World War II, he emerged as a super-soldier, boosted to the maximum of human strength and ability.

The Army called their enhanced combatant, Captain America. Soon, he became a one-man fighting force, determined to battle for freedom and justice. The character’s wartime experience made him a skilled commander and expert strategist. This gained him the respect of fellow superheroes, and made him the natural leader of the Avengers.
