'''{{C|Captain America|ua}}''' is a character appearing in the animated films {{ua}} and {{ua2}}, both of which have their tenth anniversary this year. He was voiced by [[Justin Gross]] in both his appearances. While the videos were based on the first ''Ultimates'' story arc, he is more inspired by the original Earth-616 version.
'''{{sm}}''' is a series that ran starting starting November 19, 1994 and ending January 31, 1998. It is the fourth to focus on the wallcrawler after {{sm67}}, {{sm81}}, and {{smaf}}. It is the second longest running series based on a [[Marvel Comics]] property after only {{xm}}, which exists in the same [[Marvel Animated Universe|continuity]].

During {{C|World War II|ua}}, {{C|Operation: Rebirth|ua}} turned meek little Steve Rogers into the powerful superhero Captain America. 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 fighting Kleiser, Captain America climbed onto a nuclear missile and destroyed it over the North Atlantic. He fell into the ocean where he froze. 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. He stopped when he saw the modern {{C|New York City|ua}} and {{C|Nick Fury|ua}} told him they had won the war.
The show followed the life of Peter Parker as [[Spider-Man]] (voiced by [[Christopher Daniel Barnes]]). After the death of his [[Ben Parker|Uncle Ben]] ([[Brian Keith]]), Peter struggles to balance his [[superhero]] life and personal life with his [[May Parker|Aunt May]] (Linda Gary and Julie Bennett), girlfriend [[Black Cat|Felicia Hardy]] ([[Jennifer Hale]]), eventual wife [[Mary Jane Watson]] ([[Sara Ballantine]]), and best friend [[Harry Osborn]] (Gary Imhoff). He fights classic villains such as [[Shocker]] ([[Jim Cummings]]), [[Kingpin]] ([[Roscoe Lee Browne]]), [[Vulture]] (Allen Johnson and Eddie Albert), and [[Doctor Octopus]] ([[Efrem Zimbalist Jr.]]) as well as then-recent characters such as [[Venom]] ([[Hank Azaria]]), [[Hobgoblin]] ([[Mark Hamill]]), and [[Carnage]] ([[Scott Cleverdon]]). He would team up with the [[Fantastic Four]], the [[X-Men]] (featuring the cast of {{xm}}), [[Nick Fury]] (Phil Abbot) and [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]], [[Prowler]] ([[Tim Russ]]), [[Captain America]] ([[David Hayter]]), [[War Machine]] ([[James Avery]]) and [[Iron Man]] ([[Robert Hays]], both reprising their roles from {{im}}). The show adapted stories including ''The Kid Who Collects Spider-Man'', ''[[Secret Wars]]'', and even the controversial ''Clone Saga''. He even traveled to the "real world" to meet [[Stan Lee]].

Steve found that everything he knew had changed. His neighborhood had evolved, his fellow soldiers had died, and friend Bucky Barnes had grown old while married to Gail. Fury recruited Steve into his {{C|Avengers|ua}} project and gave him command of the team. He explained to the group that the Chitauri were still attacking Earth. He was given a new indestructible {{C|Captain America's Shield|ua|shield}} and lead the team to retake a captured S.H.I.E.L.D. base that housed satellites used to track the aliens. However, only {{C|Black Widow|ua}} obeyed his orders, the team failed, and the base was destroyed. Steve left feeling disillusioned with modern people. When the Chitauri assaulted the Triskelion, Captain America and the other Avengers joined in defending the planet. Under Captain America's leadership, the aliens were defeated. Unfortunately, {{C|Bruce Banner|ua}} lost control of {{C|Hulk|ua}} and attacked the team. They managed to hold him off until {{C|Betty Ross|ua}} calmed him down stopping the rampage. Afterwards, Bucky brought Gail to him so they could reconnect. Then, the Avengers held a party in his honor.
The series came about when Marvel Comics was facing financial problems. [[Avi Arad]] started [[Marvel Films Animation]] to bring characters to animation and hired [[John Semper, Jr.]] to be story editor after a previous editor failed to work out. The two clashed on the direction of the show, but Semper won after arguing that a quality show would sell toys anyways. Semper had great freedom when it came to guest stars and included characters such as [[Punisher]] (John Beck), [[Blade]] (James Donald Hall), [[Doctor Strange]] ([[John Vernon]]), and [[Madame Web]] (Joan Lee). 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]].

Over the following months, Steve began dating Natalia. At the same time, he was growing depressed at his situation and began taking more dangerous missions. After nearly getting himself killed, Fury forced Steve to take a break. One night, {{C|Black Panther|ua}} invaded his room. Revealed to be {{C|T'Challa|ua}}, Steve learned that Kleiser was still alive and attacking {{C|Wakanda|ua}}. Fury gave Natalia command of the team while infiltrating the country that did not want outsiders there. Black Panther found the team and took Captain America into his city explaining the history of his people and Kleiser. When the Avengers were discovered, they were forced to leave. However, Steve left the aircraft when he thought he saw a Chitauri. It was a trick by Kleiser to destroy the team. {{C|Thor|ua}} saved them but the planet came under siege. The team returned to Wakanda, since the Chitauri was seeking the {{C|vibranium|ua}} underneath the nation. Captain America and Black Panther fought Kleiser in his true form eventually trapping him forever in hardened vibranium. The team returned to the Triskelion and Steve made things right with Natalia.
The show as a hit in the ratings. The episode {{eps|Day of the Chameleon}} won an Annie Award for Best Individual Achievement for Writing in the Field of Animation. The series won a NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Animated/Live Action/Dramatic Youth or Children's Series/Special. The show had a major impact on the comics and subsequent adaptations, most notably with the [[Venom Symbiote]]. Before, the symbiote just gave Spider-Man unlimited [[Web Fluid|webbing]]. Afterwards the comics, films, and other series including the aspect that the symbiote increased his aggressive side. In fact, the film ''Spider-Man 3'' included a recreated shot from {{eps|The Alien Costume, Part One}}. Other aspects include making [[Green Goblin]] an alternate personality to [[Norman Osborn]] who actually communicates with and demeans his other self. Additionally, the series finale featured a story of Spider-Man traveling to an alternate universe to team up with several other [[Spider-Men]] to stop an evil version of [[Spider-Carnage|himself]]. The video game ''Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions'' featured a similar story as well as the recent ''Spider-Verse'' story in the [[Marvel Comics]].

Widow Iron Man Cap Charge UA2

Captain America is a character appearing in the animated films Ultimate Avengers and Ultimate Avengers II, both of which have their tenth anniversary this year. He was voiced by Justin Gross in both his appearances. While the videos were based on the first Ultimates story arc, he is more inspired by the original Earth-616 version.

During World War II, Operation: Rebirth turned meek little Steve Rogers into the powerful superhero Captain America. He dated the beautiful Gail Richards though they were separated by the fighting. He became bitter enemies with the disguised Chitauri alien Herr Kleiser 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 fighting Kleiser, Captain America climbed onto a nuclear missile and destroyed it over the North Atlantic. He fell into the ocean where he froze. After sixty years, S.H.I.E.L.D. found his body and returned it to the Triskelion. There, Steve woke up and fought his way out. He stopped when he saw the modern New York City and Nick Fury told him they had won the war.

Steve found that everything he knew had changed. His neighborhood had evolved, his fellow soldiers had died, and friend Bucky Barnes had grown old while married to Gail. Fury recruited Steve into his Avengers project and gave him command of the team. He explained to the group that the Chitauri were still attacking Earth. He was given a new indestructible shield and lead the team to retake a captured S.H.I.E.L.D. base that housed satellites used to track the aliens. However, only Black Widow obeyed his orders, the team failed, and the base was destroyed. Steve left feeling disillusioned with modern people. When the Chitauri assaulted the Triskelion, Captain America and the other Avengers joined in defending the planet. Under Captain America's leadership, the aliens were defeated. Unfortunately, Bruce Banner lost control of Hulk and attacked the team. They managed to hold him off until Betty Ross calmed him down stopping the rampage. Afterwards, Bucky brought Gail to him so they could reconnect. Then, the Avengers held a party in his honor.

Over the following months, Steve began dating Natalia. At the same time, he was growing depressed at his situation and began taking more dangerous missions. After nearly getting himself killed, Fury forced Steve to take a break. One night, Black Panther invaded his room. Revealed to be T'Challa, Steve learned that Kleiser was still alive and attacking Wakanda. Fury gave Natalia command of the team while infiltrating the country that did not want outsiders there. Black Panther found the team and took Captain America into his city explaining the history of his people and Kleiser. When the Avengers were discovered, they were forced to leave. However, Steve left the aircraft when he thought he saw a Chitauri. It was a trick by Kleiser to destroy the team. Thor saved them but the planet came under siege. The team returned to Wakanda, since the Chitauri was seeking the vibranium underneath the nation. Captain America and Black Panther fought Kleiser in his true form eventually trapping him forever in hardened vibranium. The team returned to the Triskelion and Steve made things right with Natalia.
