I've always considered Cap to be boosted up to superhuman after the serum. His strength rivals Black Panther whom is enhanced and is even more knowledgeable in martial arts. He was able to chop Ultrons adamantium neck in half and shatter Iron Man's extremist armor. He's tackles enemies through walls and concrete. Dodges bullets and overpowers Beast. He beat an entire room of superhuman Asgardian trolls. He dodges cross bones energy attacks at point blank range. He clearly has superhuman durability when Warrior Woman punched him into the sky and he somersaulted onto a plane. He outran Atlaentiabs whom are far beyond any peak human. He withstood a fall of 200 feet easily. He jumped out if helicopters and left craters with his feet in the ground. Took a beating from Namor. He has pulled down a helicopter with two men inside with enough force that they came flying out the windsheild. Easily pushes a statue that weighs a ton by like it was nothing. These are just a few feats of his in a whole long list of others. He's superhuman as far as I'm concerned.

Out of curiosity what era were all those comics from? Post mid-90's? I gauge Cap's power levels based on his appearance in solo titles from the 60's to the 90's but I'm certainly no expert after about 1996 or so. So if they jacked him way up after that then I'd be ignorant to those events.

I kind of dipped into a lot there. But let's just say from the cap that I know from the 90s on those are consistent.

Truth. People downplay Spider-Man all the time, but the dude is dangerous. He's a super genius AND a physical threat. Anyone who thinks that Spider-Man's a low-level guy, clearly doesn't know what he/she's talking about. We're talking about the guy who lifted a building while hurt AF, scored the same as Reed Richards, got a Cosmic Cube to work, has tech that even Stark can't trace, has webbing that can immobilize Wolverine and Iron Man and many more. Sure, he's no Thor or Bleeding Edge/Superior Iron Man level, but Spider-Man is well above Captain America, not to mention the internet's favourite, Batman. That battle is so mitchmatched, it's not even funny.

I see it's "Hulk vs Godzilla" time of the year again...

After the ridiculous, "Gear up, we're going to Sokovia" scene in AoU where Cap gratuitously neglects to even *bring* his helmet to the biggest battle they were about to engage in it was very refreshing to see him keep his helmet on for all FOUR battles in Civil War (Crossbones, Bucky/BP chase, airport, Zemo bunker.) Well done Russos and Evans for not demanding mid-battle mugshots.

Not saying this was a good reason but in a deleted scene in AOU, Cap left the helmet behind because of graffiti they saw when they landed in Sokovia haha

Okay, fair enough. I don't recall Cap being that strong or durable on Steranko, McKenzie, Byrne, Gruenwald or Waid's watch (60's to mid 90's) which is basically the era that I knew him from (of course there's Joe Simon but his Golden Age abilities were much more subdued than his Stan Lee revival in the 60's.) From what I've read and heard of Markus and McFeely (TFA/TWS/CS writers) and of course the Russos they all prefer him as he appeared in the 70's/80's so that would explain how he behaves on screen in the current films.

I'm honestly very curious to see how different writers/directors handle him and what era they use as his basis for future films post-IW.

"Yeah, and he could, like, wear his Insider suit or something? And like, Batman knows all 127 Martial Arts, so that means that he can totes block hits from a super-powered individual whose agillity is off the charts, and even has developed his very own Martial Arts style. Yep, Batman's got this bruh"-Every Internet Commenter on Batman battles, ever...

If you compare the full capacity hydraulic strength of a T-800 Cyberdyne Infiltration Model 101 with unaltered CPU with the battle damaged Uncle Bob Terminator with the T2 Special Edition reprogrammed CPU even AFTER multiple bouts with a mimetic pollyalloy opponent such as a T-1000 (since I don't consider the T2-3D T-One Million "canon") then EVEN IF you say that Pops was a T-850 with double nuclear power cells there is NO WAY he should have been able to throw the original timelime T-800 through a steel fence one-handed regardless of how many times his tissue was regrown after being damaged despite aging and decomposing like normal flesh.

I've analysed the words you're putting in my mouth and I find them wanting sir!.........I would structure my sentences better than that.
