Something truly profound about Captain America as a character, which I hope Marvel does not neglect, is that there will be a point in time within his world where he is the only person alive who lived through World War 2-- in fact, it won't be long before all of our veterans from World War 2 have passed away in real life, and I hope that the weight of Cap having to outlive all the men and women whom bravely fought for America along side him is something that I hope Marvel doesn't allow to be lost during the glitz of the action set pieces and special effects. Not only does he carry the weight of being a symbol of America, but also the last living representative of what we call the greatest generation.
