The character first appeared in Captain America Comics #1 (cover-datedMarch 1941),[1][2][3][4][5] from Marvel Comics' 1940s predecessor, Timely Comics, and was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby. As of 2007, an estimated 210 million copies of "Captain America" comic books had been sold in 75 countries.[6] For nearly all of the character's publication history, Captain America has been the alter ego of Steve Rogers, a frail young man who was enhanced to the peak of human perfection by an experimental serum, in order to aid the United Statesgovernment's efforts to win World War II. Captain America wears a costume that bears an American flagmotif, and is armed with an indestructible, boomerang-like shield that can both be thrown as a weapon, and defend against others' weapons.[7]An intentionally patriotic creation who was often depicted fighting the Axis powers of World War II, Captain America was Timely Comics' most popular character during the 1940s wartime period. After the war ended, the character's popularity waned and the comic had been discontinued by 1950 aside from an ill-fated, 1953 revival. Captain America was re-introduced by Marvel Comics during the Silver Age of comics, as anM.I.A soldier retrieved from an iceberg and awakened from suspended animation by the superhero team theAvengers in The Avengers #4 (March 1964). Since then, Captain America has often led the team, as well as starring in his own series.Steve Rogers was purportedly assassinated in Captain America vol. 5, #25 (March 2007), although he was later revealed to be alive. The comic-book series Captain America continued to be published,[8] with Rogers' former sidekick, James "Bucky" Barnes, having taken up the mantle until Rogers eventually again assumed the role.Captain America was the first Marvel Comics character adapted into another medium, with the release of the 1944 movie serial Captain America. Since then, the character has been featured in several other films and television series, including Chris Evans' portrayal inCaptain America: The First Avenger, released on July 22, 2011, and The Avengers, released on May 4, 2012. In 2011, Captain America was ranked sixth on IGN's Top 100 Comic Book Heroes.
