The United States of Captain America is a 2021 Comic Book celebrating the 80th anniversary of Captain America. It is written by Christopher Cantwell, with art by Dale Eaglesham. It includes backup stories by a variety of writers and artists, including Josh Trujillo, Jan Bazaldua, Mohale Mashigo, Natacha Bustos, Darcie Little Badger, David Cutler, Alyssa Wong, and Jodi Nishijima.The book celebrates by also introducing a network of people around the United States taking up the name of Captain America after being inspired by Steve, Bucky, Sam and others who took up the mantle.The shield has been stolen! No one understands the value of the shield like those who've wielded it, so Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson set out on a road trip across America to chase down the thief. But instead, they find the Captains, everyday people from all walks of life who've taken up the mantle of Captain America to defend their communities. And for some reason, the shield thief wants them all dead. Can Sam and Steve get to them first?

comment
Hero with Bad Publicity: The Captain America Network are generally not seen favorably by those in power, especially because they tend to be marginalized people fighting to protect those stepped on by those in power. Case in point: the sheriff of Dauphin County, Pennsylvania arrested Nichelle Wright and refuses to allow her to be released, even though there are a dozen witnesses that say she didn't do it, just because she's been a pain in his ass and now he can get rid of her.

Origins Episode: The first four issues contain a backup story about the origin of the Cap introduced in that issue. Most of them are flashbacks, except Nichelle's which takes place immediately after the events of the second issue.

The Chosen Many: It turns out that there are many Captains America, an entire network. When the legacy of Captain America is threatened, Sam Wilson even decides to switch out his Falcon costume with his Captain America costume, so that two Captains America are on the case. Bucky Barnes and John Walker later join the fight as well.

Affirmative-Action Legacy: The Network is comprised of a diverse group of people in varying ways. Aaron Fischer is gay and Jewish, Nichelle Wright is a black woman, Joe Gomez is Native American, and Arielle Agbayani is Filipino. Inverted with Jeremy Merrick, who is white.

Godwin's Law: Bucky invokes this trope on Steve's behalf when they talk about how one of his enemies is a living psychoactive energy derived from the consciousness of Adolf Hitler, and even enemies who aren't Nazis like Batroc have been associated with people who've been associated with Hitler's protegé Red Skull, defying Even Evil Has Standards.

Dirty Cop: The Sheriff from the second issue doesn't care if Nichelle is innocent or not. He just wants to get rid of her because she's been a pain in his ass, from picketing to sit-ins, and now that she can be blamed for a crime, he's fine with sending her to prison, no matter if she did it or not.
