Helen O’Hara of Empire magazine wonders why some critics think Captain America is boring. She asks, “Many superheroes, action heroes and sci-fi stars have troubled pasts that they sometimes like to reflect upon while staring handsomely into the distance.

So why is Captain America interesting? O’Hara makes a compelling case in her blog. Click here and see if you agree.
