Near the end of the war, he was trapped in ice and survived in suspended animation until he was revived in modern times. Captain America is the alter ego of Steve Rogers, a frail young artist enhanced to the peak of human perfection by an experimental " super-soldier serum" after joining the military to aid the United States government's efforts in World War II. The character wears a costume bearing an American flag motif, and he utilizes a nearly-indestructible shield that he throws as a projectile. Since Marvel Comics revived the character in 1964, Captain America has remained in publication.
The popularity of superheroes waned following the war, and the Captain America comic book was discontinued in 1950, with a short-lived revival in 1953. Captain America was designed as a patriotic supersoldier who often fought the Axis powers of World War II and was Timely Comics' most popular character during the wartime period. Created by cartoonists Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in Captain America Comics #1 ( cover dated March 1941) from Timely Comics, a predecessor of Marvel Comics.
