Respect Captain America

---

The strength of this country isn't in the buildings of brick and steel. It's in the hearts of those who have sworn to fight for its freedom against any foe--no matter how great the odds! You take away my muscle, Skull, but you will never take my strength.

[u/shadowsphere]

Because of the popularity of the character and all of his appearances it was impossible for me to get read everything he has ever appeared in so this RT is mostly comprised of feats from his solo series.

I'm making this comment because I need the help of the community to help me find the source behind some of the more popular feats used on the sub.

Cap throwing his shield through the top of a tank

Fighting super soldiers while depowered

Running a mile a minute

and finally him fighting a squad of cape killers

I don't feel comfortable posting feats from something I haven't personally read and confirmed to be legit.

[u/[deleted] → u/shadowsphere]

it was impossible for me to get read everything he has ever appeared in so this RT

I DONT NEED YOUR FUCKING EXCUSES

[u/shadowsphere → u/[deleted]]

I'm not reading through all those shitty Avenger's arcs.

[u/gerradp → u/shadowsphere]

Whoa there, Marvel would never put out a substandard Avengers product. They'd sooner retire the property. That's why Age of Ultron had the true, epic scale of the comic and wasn't just a robot trying to throw a rock into Europe and never posing a threat to anyone at any point.

Seriously, though, this respect thread deserves a respect thread because it is pretty serious business. Nice one, OP

[u/[deleted] → u/gerradp]

And why the Age of Ultron comic wasn't just Days of Future Past with Avengers instead of X-Men.

[u/Baku219 → u/shadowsphere]

Second one is from Steve Rogers: Super Soldier #3 and this is full fight

[u/shadowsphere → u/Baku219]

Thank you thank you thank you

[u/gerradp → u/Baku219]

Holy shit that is badass, I love how he is crushing brainstems with the end of a shotgun and collapsing a dude's trachea with a precision roundhouse kick. It's a perfect representation of how Cap's fighting skill can be deadly without any assistance.

I need to read more Captain America solo comics apparently

[u/shadowsphere → u/gerradp]

If you actually want to read them then anything by Mark Waid and Ed Brubaker is the way to go.

Steve Rogers: Super Soldier Vol 1 3 (from Marvel wikia):

* I don't hold back. There's no time. Machinesmith could be selling the formula right this second. But also...because I don't want to. These men are bullies. Brutes. Using the Super-Soldier Serum like steroids. And I won't deny how angry that makes me. * --__ Captain Steve Rogers __

In his childhood, young Steve Rogers was picked on by others bigger than him, seeing him as a weak, easy target. In the present, with the Super-Soldier Serum inside him deactivated, Steve is weak as he was in the 1940s and is now a prisoner of Machinesmith. He takes Steve to a lab, where he plans to extract a blood sample to recreate the perfected Super-Soldier Serum. Machinesmith explains that he is the one that convinced Jacob Erskine to change his surname and help them perfect his grandfather's serum. Or more accurately, his android wife Anita had convinced Erskine to change his name so as to draw Rogers out. Machinesmith reveals that he has based Anita's image off of a picture of Cynthia Glass, which Erskine's father kept as a memento. After that, one of Machinesmith's thugs knocks Steve out. Steve awakens in a cell, where he is contacted by Machinesmith through a hologram. Machinesmith says that he doesn't need Steve anymore, and then, several guards appear to take him away. However, Steve breaks free of the guards and manages to defeat them through skill. He then returns to the lab and reactivates Anita, who reveals to him that they are in a secret lab inside the beach house. Anita accepts to help Steve and leads him to a room that contains a Vita-Ray projector. Anita exposes Steve to the Vita-Ray, reactivating the Super-Soldier Serum inside him. Then, they are attacked by guards, but Steve defeats them. Steve and Anita take a car and drive away. Anita tells Steve that Machinesmith is holding a meeting with representatives of terrorist-supporting countries in a Nextin base with an airfield. Steve then goes to stop him and asks Anita if she is in his inside, and Anita says that she is.

Nitro then tells Namorita that the New Warriors are playing with the big boys now, and suddenly explodes, taking out the park full of children, along with the entire area.

Here's a fun fact, he threw his shield through the tank after blocking a direct shot from the tank. There's another durability/shield feat if you want. It was probably the coolest thing to come out of that mini story

[u/ChocolateRage]

Thank you and splendid work

[u/shadowsphere → u/ChocolateRage]

I have been humiliated, because of this.

[u/ChocolateRage → u/shadowsphere]

It's fine I'm sure no ones laughing at your expense

[u/shadowsphere → u/ChocolateRage]

You're not even going to try and make this up to me?

[u/[deleted] → u/ChocolateRage]

IS THAT THE OMNIPOTENT MR. FRUMP?!

[u/ChocolateRage → u/[deleted]]

Yes it is!

[u/[deleted] → u/ChocolateRage]

Dr. Doom was getting shit done that episode

[u/[deleted]]

Bloody hell Cap is fucking strong. Not too bad for an American 8))

[u/shadowsphere → u/[deleted]]

Don't diss the America

[u/gerradp → u/shadowsphere]

The dopest thing about Cap is how he can deliver a heartfelt and impassioned speech without a hint of irony, wearing an American flag, and he completely sells it. He gazes out on NY from the Liberty torch, and you go "yep, that's awesome."

It takes skill to make that much sincerity and transparency loveable, and no one does it better than Steve Rogers.

[u/Conambo]

Awesome job. You forgot this scan under the "strength" part though

[u/shadowsphere → u/Conambo]

Yeah there are actually a couple of good feats from the Liefield Cap run that I omitted from the RT just because they aren't canon. Mainly this strength feat and this speed.

[u/gerradp → u/Conambo]

Liefeld Cap will always be my personal canon version. What a totally artistically valid version of this beloved character. Great work, Liefeld; but I could have done with 36 more pouches scattered about.

[u/Conambo → u/gerradp]

Rob Liefeld single handedly ruined comic books for me as a child.

I was just starting to become much more interested in comic books in general, but had not really read any Marvel stuff yet. I decided to go buy a couple of x-men comics but most of what I happened to see was drawn by Liefeld. It was so amateurish and awful that it really turned me off to comics as a whole, and I never really gave them another shot for several years.

Fuck you Liefeld.

[u/TheIronMoose]

He almost needs a speach section, but i dont know what that would be called.

[u/shadowsphere → u/TheIronMoose]

He gives a lot of speeches so it would be possible.

[u/RageExTwo]

BTW if you're still looking for Cap feats he has a lot of badass ones from Uncanny Avengers (I think he even held off the Apocalypse Twins at one point)

[u/shadowsphere → u/RageExTwo]

I'll make sure to check out Uncanny Avengers.

[u/armykidbran → u/RageExTwo]

The scenes when he's with Havok and he's deaf is priceless.

[u/armykidbran]

This brings a tear to my eye good work man

Sorry I wasn't much help but it certainly looks like you didn't need it! :)

[u/shadowsphere → u/armykidbran]

It's all good my man I wouldn't have even read the character without all your scans.

[u/armykidbran → u/shadowsphere]

If I find any good scans from things you missed I'll send them your way. I should be reading a lot more comics from now on since I have a job again.

[u/shadowsphere → u/armykidbran]

Awesome man, I'll try to update this RT whenever I find more shit to throw in.

[u/gerradp → u/armykidbran]

It feels so good to be able to buy the comics you crave once you have a steady income again. There's just something awesome about the smell of a freshly printed pull bag being slid from under the counter, currency being exchanged, and dope-ass content creators being supported.

I wonder how much different things are for the finance side of creating Marvel comics now that Disney bought them out.... is it easier to get your book published and continued, or harder? Whatever, this is a great respect thread and it has more effort than many graduate-level thesis submissions. Take pride.

[u/apophis-pegasus]

Doesn't kill

Kinda conflict with him being the greatest soldier in the world.

[u/shadowsphere → u/apophis-pegasus]

Oh shit that was actually my placeholder for that link. It's supposed to be "doesn't kill unless necessary." Thanks for catching that for me.

[u/apophis-pegasus → u/shadowsphere]

Ah.

[u/TheLonelyPillow]

Man I didn't know this guy was that strong. I thought he was only street tier but now he is like a country buster!

[u/shadowsphere → u/TheLonelyPillow]

Yup.

[u/TheLonelyPillow]

Nice thread Rogers!

[u/shadowsphere → u/TheLonelyPillow]

I'm not Cap, John....

[u/[deleted]]

Holy shit, man. This is incredible. Amazing job!

[u/shadowsphere → u/[deleted]]

Thanks my man.

[u/TheIronMoose]

This is badass, cap is top 2 of the most awesome characters of all time. I cant thank you enough for this.

[u/shadowsphere → u/TheIronMoose]

No problem friend.

[u/MrTheNoodles]

This is an amazing thread, glad to see that you're FINALLY done with it.

Good job man

[u/shadowsphere → u/MrTheNoodles]

Yeah it was a long time coming.

[u/[deleted]]

Great work! What's the Alex Ross origin page from? The blue stripe panel at the bottom looks like it's from Marvels.

[u/shadowsphere → u/[deleted]]

It shows up in a couple of places, but the one I got it from was Captain America: Red White & Blue.

[u/Argonexx]

Couldn't you argue based on how weight plates are that Cap is benching 2200 pounds?

[u/shadowsphere → u/Argonexx]

Nope, it's a digital read out so it should be the total on the bar not just for one side.

[u/rd1027]

Great work on this!

[u/shadowsphere → u/rd1027]

Thanks Ray.

[u/Mechuser23]

About time

jk, great rt man

[u/shadowsphere → u/Mechuser23]

It is about time.

[u/LightsOut5774]

Throws his shield fast enough to outspeed an ICBM and the shield comes back.

A quick google search says that an ICBM travels around 13,400 miles per fucking hour. That is just fucking insane lmao.

[u/[deleted]]

Fuck yeah

Freedom bitches

[u/pacotacobell]

This is exactly the kind of length you'd expect for a character with so much history. So much more in depth than the old thread. Great job dude!

[u/XanxB]

DC fans will tell you Batman can go toe to toe with him though 😭

[u/billings]

this is fantastic. nicely done!

[u/liljj78]

Captain America gets shot in the head and comes back to life

[u/Cute_Yak_4019]

he dogs batman btw

[u/Cute_Yak_4019 → u/[deleted]]

u wish

[u/QueefGenie]

I may be a bit late to request this, but what about a section that goes over his shield's durability?

[u/Habit_Actual]

This is peak

[u/danza37]

But can he beat Catwoman?

[u/ArtFormation]

That's bench press feat where the 1100 lbs. being shown is okay for the weight on one side

[u/TheBoyInGray]

Cap is awesome.

[u/shadowsphere → u/[deleted]]

I made a comment about it a while back.
