In this summer of big budget super-hero movie overload, it's easy to forget the indignity comic book films often suffered in the past. It would be hard to find a better example of that than Captain America. One of Marvel's most iconic characters, Cap was the subject of two laughable made for TV movies in the late seventies, and a low budget feature film from schlockmeister Albert Pyun in 1990. Now that Marvel Comics is producing their own movie adaptations, they finally get a chance to do right by their star-spangled hero.
