Excerpts

BELOW: Captain America recalls President Roosevelt's famous quote about fear:

He felt like he was in dangerous territory. You're coming close to going off the reservation, son, he told himself.But if what General Fury was telling him was true, America had fallen a long way since Roosevelt had told the country that the only thing it had to fear was fear itself.
