History: (Spider-Man cartoon episode - "The Capture of Captain America" (fb)) - In 1941, Captain America made his debut. Fighting against the Axis in World War II, Captain America fought across Europe, frequently battling the villainous Red Skull, before falling into suspended animation in 1945. He was thawed out in the present day when the ice melted (see comments).











(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "7 Little Superheroes" (fb) - BTS) - At one point, Captain America crossed paths with the Chameleon and ruined the criminal's schemes. He did this enough to earn the master of disguise's ire.

(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "Triumph of the Green Goblin" (fb) - BTS) - At some point, Captain America licensed his likeness for use on various products, including a Captain America costume.

(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "Triumph of the Green Goblin" - BTS) - Bobby Drake wore a Captain America costume to a costume party at Empire State University.

(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "7 Little Superheroes") - Captain America, along with Dr. Strange, Namor the Sub-Mariner and Shanna the Jungle Queen, were invited by an unidentified host to Wolf Island Manor and upon arrival, they waited for over an hour with no sign of their host.

When the Spider-Friends entered the room, having decided to visit Wolf Island Manor themselves after Spider-Man found one of the unseen host's invitations under a city building's ledge, introductions were made and the Chameleon introduced himself over a set of speakers as both their previously unidentified host and their executioner. When the heroes tried to escape the island, Captain America pointed out the Chameleon's voice could have been a recording. Captain America and Iceman partnered up and explored the jungle around the manor. When Iceman was snared by a booby trap, Cap tried to free him but set off another trap that fired thorny projectiles. Using his shield to deflect the projectiles, Captain America dove into a nearby apparent pond on the word of Spider-Man, unaware that the "hero" was actually the disguised Chameleon. To his anger, Cap discovered the "pond" was actually quicksand and when the master of disguise offered him a webline, Cap reached out for it but the line broke and the hero sank under the sand. Via unrevealed means, Captain America was taken from the quicksand and placed in an electrified cage alongside the previously captured Dr. Strange and Shanna. When the Sub-Mariner was freed from his sun lamp trap by Spider-Man, he smashed the control panel that powered the cage and Cap escaped the cage along with the other captive heroes and went after the escaping Chameleon, who had a set a bomb to blow up Wolf Island Manor. He watched as Spider-Man shot a webline to catch the Chameleon and Iceman froze the villain's helicopter. Cap grabbed Spider-Man's webline and escaped the manor before it exploded.

(Spider-Man cartoon episode - "Carnival of Crime" - BTS) - Captain America balloons were given out at a local circus, at least one of which floated off into the air.

(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "Pawns of the Kingpin" (fb) - BTS) - Footage of Captain America was taken of him performing both acrobatic and heroic feats. This footage found its way into the Kingpin's clutches and the Kingpin devised a plan to have hypnotist Dr. Faustus hypnotize Captain America into stealing the Omni-Blaster weapon for him.

(Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends cartoon episode - "Pawns of the Kingpin") - Captain America made a personal appearance at Empire State University, performing acrobatic stunts for the cheering crowds and speaking of the importance of exercise. He then introduced the Spider-Friends, who were also part of the show, and challenged them to stop him from crossing the finish line at the opposite end of the school's gym. He easily dodged Spider-Man, blocked Firestar's flame with his shield and smashed his way free from Iceman's cage.

Cap was subsequently taking a break outside and signing autographs for the students when a limousine pulled up, secretly housing the Kingpin and his ally Dr. Faustus. Dr. Faustus shot him with a hypno-disk, placing him under hypnotic control. When Iceman approached Cap about an interview (for Bobby Drake's school assignment), the hypnotized Cap brushed the younger hero's request off and asked him instead to help on what he called a top-secret mission. When Spider-Man and Firestar talked to Iceman and Captain America about their encounter with the mysterious limo, Cap seemed nonchalant and drove off, unaware that he was setting off Spider-Man's spider-sense.

Later that night, Captain America radioed Iceman and told him to meet him at the Slumber Hill Cemetery. When the young mutant arrived, Cap escorted him to a nearby US government base and told Iceman that the base was actually a nest of enemy spies and that they had to recover the Omni-Blaster weapon before it was used against them. Cap shorted out the fence with his shield and disabled a guard. Despite the guards and scientist’s best efforts, Cap and Iceman easily took them out and stole the blaster. Cap then used the blaster to knock two guards through the floor before escaping with the duped Iceman. When Spider-Man and Firestar arrived, having followed Iceman, Cap shouted that they were simply androids made to look like his friends. During the ensuing short fight, Cap shot Firestar with the Omni-Blaster's freeze ray, knocking her out before freezing Spider-Man, who secretly stuck a spider-tracer on the unknowing Cap, in a solid block of ice. The hypnotized Cap then took Iceman out of the base and back towards the Kingpin on his motorcycle. Cap led Iceman to the Kingpin's house, although Cap's hypno-disc burned itself out seconds after he gave Dr. Faustus the Omni-Blaster. Cap was horrified at his actions when he realized what he had done but Dr. Faustus shot him with the Omni-Blaster's stun beam before he could do anything. The stunned heroes were then dumped in a cell before Spider-Man and Firestar, having followed the heroes using Spider-Man's spider-tracer, arrived to rescue them and Cap was woken up with a blast of water from a nearby fire hose.

When the Kingpin took control of the Omni-Blaster, Cap and the Spider-Friends tried to attack but the Omni-Blaster's rays kept them at bay. When the Kingpin fled, the heroes followed his trail and were attacked by the Kingpin's criminal gang and Cap took out three of them with his shield. As the Kingpin fled to his private jet, Spider-Man raced after him with help from Cap's parked motorcycle. When the Kingpin was defeated and arrested, Cap took his motorcycle back and thanked the Spider-Friends for a job well done. He then rode off into the dawn as Iceman chased after, shouting about his interview. Cap tossed Iceman an audio cassette that he had made sometime earlier and continued on his way, unaware the tape was ruined seconds later by Iceman's extreme cold. 

(Spider-Man cartoon episode - "The Capture of Captain America") - Captain America was invited to "Captain America Day," an event organized by J. Jonah Jameson. Cap cut through the crowd and leapt onto the stage in the park to address the crowd when he recognized the Red Skull's voice, as the Skull had secretly impersonated Jameson earlier. Cap ordered the crowd to stay back and Cap and the Skull battled but the patriotic hero was dazed by the Skull's gas gun. Throwing his shield, the stunned Cap didn't see the arriving Spider-Man, who had been present as Peter Parker covering the event. Spider-Man was hit by the shield midair and fell and Cap quickly succumbed to the gas and passed out. Unconscious, he was carried off into the Skull's airship and taken away to the Skull's secret castle headquarters. Cap was still knocked out when the Skull subsequently boasted of his plans for the hero. At the Skull's castle, Cap awoke as the Skull demonstrated what he intended for him by switching the minds of a dog and a cat. When he unveiled the larger working model of the mind transference machine, Cap watched in horror. Shortly after strapped into the machine, Cap struggled against his bonds as the Red Skull berated his scientist Dr. Nieman and ordered the power increased. Cap was only freed when Spider-Man arrived and tossed him his shield, which the hero used to flip the switch to shut off the machine. Spider-Man tore Cap's restraints away, freeing the hero. Cap ran to retrieve his shield as the Red Skull blasted away with his deadly ray, attempting to stop Cap. Captain America used his shield to block the deadly bursts, blinding the Skull. Grappling with the Skull, Cap stood back as Spider-Man webbed the criminal and threw him back into the mind transference machine. When the Skull's scientist Dr. Nieman threw the switch, tired of the Skull's insults and orders, and blasted the Skull's mind out of his body, Spider-Man held Captain America back.

Later, during a parade, Cap shook hands with Spider-Man and called him a real American. He offered to talk to "a certain publisher" about a getting a Spider-Man Day started and saluted the crowd.

(Spider-Man cartoon episode - "Arsenic & Aunt May" - BTS) - A prime-time animated television series called "The New Adventures of the Mighty Avengers" was made about the fictional adventures of Captain America and his allies, the Avengers (see comments).

Comments: Created by Doug Booth and Marvel Productions, Ltd. (see Appearances list for list of artists involved).

According to a few online sources, Captain America was voiced by George DiCenzo in both shows. 

All physical stats are from his 616 counterpart. He was never seen with his cowl off but his hair was presumably blonde like his 616 counterpart.

In the Spider-Man episode, "Capture of Captain America," all of Cap's background was revealed via a newsreel, so it might be propaganda. In the Spider-Man episode, "Carnival of Crime," we see balloons with Cap's face on them. Spider-Man also gets a Captain America costume from a costume shop, so there seems to be a fair amount of merchandise. Several Cap costumes are also seen during the few costume parties in the series.

The Avengers only show up as a cameo and the tv announcer calls the show "The New Adventures of the Mighty Avengers," which Spider-Man remarked about being "a cartoon show," so a licensed show maybe? Presumably the lineup was based on the actual roster. It was mentioned that the time was eight o'clock and it was dark so the show aired in primetime.

Earth-8107's Captain America was likely Steve Rogers though his real name was never given in his appearances. - Proto-Man

Profile by David Lawrence.

CLARIFICATIONS:
Earth-8107's Captain America has no known connections to:


The New Adventures of the Mighty Avengers

An animated series based on a fictional team of heroes known as the Avengers, consisting of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, the Vision and the Scarlet Witch, "The New Adventures of the Mighty Avengers" aired in primetime and was watched by Spider-Man.

The events seen in this animated series would be occurring on Earth-82026. It's possible that they mirrored Earth-616, which would be a strange bit of metafiction, but they likely had some differences like most fictional accounts so these would be the Avengers of Earth-82026. -Proto-Man
