Why the World Needed a Captain America Series Before his reappearance on X-Men '97, Captain America was set to have his own cartoon. Captain America: The Animated Series had potential that was never realized. With his divisive portrayal on X-Men '97, the world could've used a Captain America solo series.

Present from the creative team were co-writer and Milestone Comics alum Joseph Phillip Illidge as well as illustrator N. Steven Harris.
