Line 17:
* [[Captain Patriotic]]: Though he's a man of the American Dream, rather than the American government.
* [[Captain Superhero]]: Not the [[Trope Namer]] (that would be Captain Action) but definitely the [[Trope Codifier]], and one of the few who has actually earned the title of Captain.
* [[Cool Bike|Cool Motorcycle]]: His most recognizable vehicle is a Harley Davidson Custom Special with a paint job that matches his costume. Exactly how cool depends on the time period and continuity.
* [[Crazy Prepared]]: Captain America has spent a lot of time analyzing the data files the Avengers have compiled on all the major supervillains. No matter who he faces, chances are Cap already has a good idea of their strengths and weaknesses.
* [[Dating Catwoman]]: Diamondback, who reformed in part because of his influence.
Line 45 ⟶ 46:
* [[The Spymaster]] -- Served as one in the [[Nick Fury]] mold after coming back from his death following [[Civil War (Comic Book)|Civil War]], as "head of National Security". He operated without the shield and his iconic costume, and under his real name, as Bucky was already serving as Cap. {{spoiler|[[Status Quo Is God|It didn't stick]]}}.
* [[Super Reflexes]]: Not only can Cap always position his shield to block attacks, but even when he is [[Brainwashed and Crazy|chemically mindcontrolled]], nothing can prevent him from reflexively moving his shield arm to block attacks with his shield.
* [[Throwing Your Shield Always Works]]:
* [[Transhuman]]: Steve has been enhanced by Project Rebirth to go beyond normal human limits. His physical abilities are not something humans can gain through training and are not natural. Humans have to make trade-offs in training and cannot naturally excel in every single physical category but Steve is just above human in ''every'' category. He can match the best long distance runners, sprinters, weight lifters, throwers and martial artists physically in every way. This makes him ''barely'' superhuman and Project Rebirth also enhanced his healing and slowed down his aging allowing him to survive suspended animation.
* [[Unstuck in Time]] -- Was forced to go through this by the Red Skull in ''Reborn'', following his apparent death after [[Civil War (Comic Book)|Civil War]], to prepare his body for an eventual [[Grand Theft Me]]. {{spoiler|[[Comic Book Death|It didn't work.]]}}
