CAPTAIN AMERICA: AN UNTOLD ORIGIN! Witness the rise of one of Marvel's most infamous villains as Captain America comes face to face with DOOM for the FIRST time! This is Latveria like you've never seen it before⦠Also: Who is David Colton, and can Steve trust him to have his back as they infiltrate a hostile country with the new Howling Commandos?
Plot
Steve Rogers is sent on a mission with the current Captain America, David Colton. This assault team infiltrates Latveria, and Steve separates from Colton. Steve wants to help the insurgents stop Doctor Doom, while Colton only wants to fulfill his mission: rescue the kidnapped diplomats.
Colton feels that Rogers is out of place, out of his time, and that his hope for a better world is naive. The comic shows how Colton, as Captain America in Iraq and Afghanistan, lost trust and respect for his country; his patriotism is fading from so much disappointment and deceit.
Steve Rogers is discovered by Doctor Doom himself and welcomes him, considering him a hero for having fought Hitler.
This comic offers a very realistic view of Captain America, refreshing his mythology by placing him in a modern-day setting.
Art

Summary
Steve and David are two sides of the same coin: disappointment versus hopelessness. This duality is put to the test when they begin working as a team for the first time.
