- —Captain America
Captain Steven "Steve" Rogers, also known as Captain America, is a superhero from Marvel Comics. He appeared in the 36th episode of Death Battle, Batman VS Captain America, where he fought against Batman from DC Comics.
History
Steven Rogers was born in the early 1900s, and World War II loomed on the horizon. The young Rogers tried time and again to serve his country by enlisting in the army, only to be rejected every time due to his frail body and medical problems. Finally, he was given an offer by Dr. Abraham Erskine: Steve would finally be allowed into the army provided he volunteered to test Dr. Erskine's breakthrough formula, the super-soldier serum. The formula was an astounding success, bringing Steve Rogers to the peak of human physical performance. Clad in a striking armored uniform and equipped with a virtually unbreakable Vibranium shield, Steve was christened as "Captain America". He then proceeded to tear a swath through the forces of the Axis Powers before being accidentally frozen alive in the arctic for 70 years. Having returned in the modern era and becoming a quintessential member of the Avengers, Captain America continues the fight for freedom, no matter the price.
