For me it’s Peggy from Mad Men. At first I thought she was going to be an annoyance but half way through the first season I’ve grown to absolutely love her!

    Oh, no worries at all. I read some which were digitalised, probably from the 50s and early 60s (that’s a big guess from my side judging from the drawing style). Those put me off regarding the character as a whole until the first MCU movie was released. Once I subscribe to the Marvel online reader again, I’d like to read some more older ones in case you’ve got some recommendations for me. :)

          Sure thing, I had to look up issues because I couldn’t remember as I read them years ago. Some of these will be campy because they are old, but they are some good stories:

          • Cap 193-200 (Madbomb)
          • Captain America 253-254 (Baron Blood story —> the Civil War MCU movie has a moment that parallels what happens in this comic but different outcome)
          • Cap 372-378 (Streets of Poison)
          • Cap 450-453 (Man Without a Country)
          • Civil War (not a Cap comic per se, but a good arc)
          • Cap 170-176 (Secret Empire)

          There’s probably a lot more like his fights with Nuke, fights with US Agent, his partnership with Falcon and being a White patriotic symbol partnered with a Black man (Sam Wilson - Falcon) from Harlem, Winter Soldier, and a lot newer ones
