Avengers: Captain America

 Avengers: Captain America by ric gustafson


Irish immigrants Joseph and Sarah Rogers left Ireland and settled in Brooklyn New York. Their son Steven Rogers was born on July 4 1922. Their only child was born on the nation's birthday. Steven's father was a welder. Steven's mother worked in a garment factory.
Tragedy struck twice. Steven's father died when Steven was ten. Steven's mother died right after his 18th birthday. Steven tried to join the military. He was classified as unfit.
Steven was recruited instead for a military experiment called Operation Rebirth. Less than 10 people knew about this secret experiment. Steven was injected with a serum. A machine shot vita rays into Steven's body. 
Then the impossible began to happen. Steven's arms grew four times larger. He became a foot taller. Two minutes into the experiment, Steven Rogers was now 6 foot two and weighing 240 pounds. 
Steven Rogers was now a Super Soldier. He was given training in boxing, wrestling and bodybuilding.
Steven was given a special suit to wear. It was blue with a white star on the chest. He was given a mask with the letter A on it. He was also given a special shield with white stars and blue stripes.
As Captain America, Steven Rogers was a Super Soldier. He wanted to stand against fascism.
Captain America had arrived.
