He dated the beautiful Gail Richards though they were separated by the fighting. He became bitter enemies with the disguised {{C|Chitauri|ua}} alien {{C|Herr Kleiser|ua}} though he found the Nazi leader impossible to kill. At the end of the war, Captain America joined the 101st Airborne in storming a Nazi stronghold.

After sixty years, {{C|S.H.I.E.L.D.|ua}} found his body and returned it to the {{C|Triskelion|ua}}. There, Steve woke up and fought his way out.

Semper had great freedom when it came to guest stars and included characters such as [[Punisher]], [[Blade]], [[Doctor Strange]], and [[Madame Web]]. He used season long story arcs, against direct orders since that was something not being done in a children's show. Despite being top in the ratings, the show was eventually cancelled because of a disagreement between Arad and [[Margaret Loesch]]. |
