Captain America was murdered.

After close to 60 years in print, Marvel Comics has killed off Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, one of its most famous and beloved superheroes amid an already controversial story line, “Civil War,” which is pitting the heroes of Marvel’s universe against one another.

In the comic series, Rogers was to stand trial for defying a superhero registration law passed after a hero’s tragic mistake causes a 9/11-like event.

Steve Rogers eventually surrenders to police. Captain America was shot by a sniper on the steps of the New York City federal courthouse. Then a sometime girlfriend, acting under post-hypnotic suggestion, finished the job by pumping three bullets into his stomach at close range.
