But you might be surprised to find out that the comic book history of the squeaky clean, star spangled Boy Scout is as dark as they come. And if fans of comic book movies think their superhero blockbusters are getting a little too dark, violent, or serious, they’d better hope these famous moments from Captain America’s history are never adapted.
