I also remember reading some Avengers comics a little while back where they talked about the "Captain America affect". There's just something about the man that makes you want to be better. Chris Evans as Captain America is cheesy, but he really does do that. He makes me want to be a better person, even if his example is unrealistic. There is a power to that that can't be realized with the hilarious but cynical worldview of Iron Man. There's just something magical about Cap. Something that can't truly be deconstructed no matter how hard Alan Moore or Mark Millar tries. Something that's rooted deep inside every human being. I suppose it's that most basic instinct of altruism. That's Cap.
