Captain America: The First Avenger Page #4

Synopsis: It is 1942, America has entered World War II, and sickly but determined Steve Rogers is frustrated at being rejected yet again for military service. Everything changes when Dr. Erskine recruits him for the secret Project Rebirth. Proving his extraordinary courage, wits and conscience, Rogers undergoes the experiment and his weak body is suddenly enhanced into the maximum human potential. When Dr. Erskine is then immediately assassinated by an agent of Nazi Germany's secret HYDRA research department (headed by Johann Schmidt, a.k.a. the Red Skull), Rogers is left as a unique man who is initially misused as a propaganda mascot; however, when his comrades need him, Rogers goes on a successful adventure that truly makes him Captain America, and his war against Schmidt begins.

But for Schmidt it is not fantasy.

For him, it is real.

He has become convinced

that there is a great power.

Hidden in the earth.

Left here by the gods.

Waiting to be seized by superior men.

So when he has found my

formula and what it can do.

He cannot resist.

Schmidt wants to become that superior man.

Did it make him stronger?

Ja.

But, it has other effects.

The serum wasn't ready.

But more important.

The man.

The serum amplifies everything

that is inside, so..

Good becomes great.

Bad becomes worse.

This is why you were chosen.

Because a strong man.

Who has known power all his life.

They lose respect for that power.

But a weak man.

Who values of strength.

And loves

Compassion.

Thanks.

I think.

Give this.

Whatever happens tomorrow,

you must promise me one thing.

That you must stay who you are.

Not a perfect soldier.

But.

A good man.

To the little guys.

No, wait, wait. What am I doing?

No, you have procedure tomorrow.

No fluids.

All right, we'll drink it after.

No, I don't have procedure tomorrow.

I can't after, I can now.

Is there something in particular you need?

I uh, understand you found him.

See for yourself.

You disapprove.

I just don't see why you

need concern yourself.

I can't imagine he'll succeed.

Again.

The serum is the allies only defense.

against this power we now possess.

If we take it away from them,

then our victory is assured.

I shall give the order.

It has been given.

Good.

Doctor Zola.

What do you think?

Masterpiece.

I know this neighborhood.

I got beat up in that alley.

And that parking lot.

And behind that dinner.

Did you have something against running away?

You start running they'll never let you stop.

You stand up, push back.

You can't say no forever, right.

I know a little of what that's like.

To have every door shut in your face.

I guess I just don't know why you

would want to join the army.

You're a beautiful dame.

Beautifu..oh a woman. I mean...

An agent, not a Dame.

- You are beautiful.

- You have no idea how to talk to a woman, do you?

I think this is the longest

conversation I've had with a woman.

They're not exactly lining up to dance

with a guy that might step on them.

You must have danced.

Well, asking a woman to dance always seems so terrifying.

And the past few years just...

Didn't seem to matter that much.

Figured I'd wait.

For what?

Right partner.

This way.

What are we doing here?

Follow me.

Wonderful weather this morning.

- Isn't it.

- Yes, but I always carry an umbrella.

Good morning.

Please, not now.

You ready?

Good.

Take off your shirt your tie and your hat.

Senator Brandt, glad you could make it.
