Commence an exclusive journey with Folio and Marvel Comics, celebrating the 80th anniversary of a truly flagship Super Hero.
The first in a new series, Captain America collects ten star-spangled tales in one spectacular hardback edition.
This ultimate comic-book chronicle of the Sentinel of Liberty also features a replica issue of 1941’s Captain America Comics #1.

Former Marvel Editor-in-Chief Roy Thomas selects key stories from Cap’s 80-year career – from wartime battles with the Red Skull to his Reagan-era resignation – presenting the ultimate portrait of Marvel’s shield-slinging Super Hero.

Award-winning Marvel illustrator Michael Cho provides inspiring cover art of Cap himself in glorious red, white and blue, as well as a sapphire slipcase design stamped with the Super Hero’s iconic shield emblem.
With an authoritative introduction by Thomas, Captain America offers an unrivalled view of one of the most enduring characters in American comic books.
Uncover Eighty Years of Adventure

Few embody the spirit of wartime Super Heroes quite like Captain America. Conceived by Jewish creators Jack Kirby and Joe Simon, the character famously punched out Hitler on the cover of Captain America Comics #1 — months before America officially entered the Second World War.

This iconic piece of comic book history has been reproduced in its entirety as a meticulous replica issue, included with this edition. Every page has been painstakingly scanned from an authentic copy, preserving original promos and vintage ads with no digital remastering.

The ten milestone tales collected in the hardback volume have been expertly curated by Stan Lee’s editorial successor, Roy Thomas. Together, they showcase a galaxy of comic book talent — from writers Lee and Ed Brubaker to artists Frank Miller and Gene Colan — who chronicled Cap’s adventures across the shifting tides of the modern era.
