Captain America
November 22, 2002
This week, Marvel Comics kicked off a series that re-imagines the classic hero, Captain America. "Truth: Red, White and Black" begins with the revelation that blond-haired, blue-eyed Steve Rogers was not the first American to be injected with the Army’s Super-Soldier serum. Instead, the truth comes out that the Army had tested the serum on African American GIs long before then—which means that there is a black Captain America, whose existence was a secret until now. Brooke speaks with Axel Alonso, editor of "Truth: Red, White and Black," and Kyle Baker, artist.
