The hero timeless Steve Rogers adapts to modern times: the war the Nazis comics and The First Avenger at the turn rebellious of "Captain America: Civil War".
(Emanuele Zambon) . These are the years of World War II, and the specter of a US involvement in the conflict made his way through the public Stars and Stripes. Screenwriter Joe Simon follows with vivid interest the news coming from Europe: Hitler's Germany is moving forward towards the realization of the Third Reich, leaving behind a trail of death and repression. Simon, to express their dissent towards Nazism, create a new cartoon character and features editor of Timely Comics (later Marvel) Martin Goodman to publish a strip. Born Captain America , the first superhero to be sent to the front to turn the tide of the war in progress. The peculiarities of the comic dedicated to the super-soldier Steve Rogers is indeed contamination of ink between ideology and evasion. Captain America is a political comic strip, with which America expresses its contempt for European totalitarianism: in the first issue dedicated to Cap - dated March 1941 - the Avenger punches even the Fuhrer on the cover. The original Captain America is amazing, since the nemesis of the paladin stars and stripes is not a mysterious villain, but Adolf Hitler personally. Steve Rogers in the comics fought the Nazis (curiously as he will years after Indiana Jones Harrison Ford). After the end of hostilities and the victory (bitter) of democracy over fascism, the Sentinel of Liberty comes to terms with oblivion. A war hero has little appeal for peace and Cap-time back in vogue only in the mid-60s, thanks to restyling operated by Stan Lee . To the movies instead?
