Captain America is one of the most recognizable superheroes in the world. He’s been in so many TV shows and movies that at this point it wouldn’t be unfair for fans to think they’ve seen every aspect of his history. This, however, is not entirely true. While they always see the classic origins of Steve going from someone not physically able to serve in the army to becoming Captain America, there is one part of his early life that always gets glossed over: his abusive father. Joseph Rogers was a man who made Steve’s childhood a misery, and yet, in his own way, he helped form the foundation for Steve’s beliefs.What’s more, Joseph’s history of abuse is actually proven to be relevant by later additions to Captain America’s lore, such as his HYDRA variant. The suffering Joseph inflicts on his son is not something he is grateful for, but what he went through helped form the conviction that he would always stand up for himself and others, no matter who was trying to keep them down. The inclusion of such a story would also help humanize Captain America a bit more to audiences. Those who have been in that situation would see that even in the worst moments life has to offer if someone as small as Steve was at the beginning could achieve such greatness, then it’s a source of hope for many more.This confirms that Joseph did have a sense of morality and duty before his descent into alcoholism. If anything, these qualities may have been passed on to his son, perhaps partially inspiring Steve to try and enlist during World War II. After the Great War ended, though, Joseph and his wife decided to immigrate to America, hoping for a better life there. Instead, Joseph would find only hardship after hardship.
