Restoring Captain America to his original glory this four-part story details, and in some ways revises, the origin of Cap and chronicles his early days fighting in World War II.
Beginning with a gangly Steve Rogers at the movies with friends, riveted by newsreels of the encroaching Nazi forces in Europe. Rogers signs up for the Army afterwards, so strongly does he react, but unfortunately he is deemed unfit for service. Luckily a top scientist and a general taps him for 'greater things' - a clandestine project, Operation: Rebirth.
Making it through the testing program on sheer will alone he ultimately receives a treatment which turns him into a "Super Soldier." But will a Nazi assassin ensure that he'll survive the process?!
If he can Rogers will have to try and fit in an Army where his identity must be concealed. There he'll meet James Buchanan Barnes, a.k.a. Bucky, a wisecracking teen who lied to get into the army. And Cap's fledgling attempts at "heroing" may send him winging his way to France, then Germany, where he'll come face-to-face with his arch-foe -The Red Skull- for the first time.
Meant to capture the flavor of a 1940's serial in this series readers get to see a Captain America before he become the self-assured adventurer and leader of the Avengers. With supporting characters Bucky, Chester Phillips, Harmon Furmintz, Sgt. Duffy, Cynthia Glass plus a host of villains - Blitzkrieg, Master Man and of course Adolf Hitler.”
