Captain America’s birth date?

So in the Movieverse Captain America was born in July 4, 1918

But the comic verse gives different years for 616!Steve’s birth date.

The Adventures of Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #1 says he was born in 1917 (and that his dad died in 1920)

The Marvel Handbook A-Z update #2 and Avengers: Roll Call as well as other Cap comics say that he was born in 1922 (In Civil War: The Confession, Steve tells a SHIELD rookie that he’s 85 which means that if you take into account that comic came out in 2007 then Steve would have been born in 1922)

Then there are other comics (can’t remember any issue number in specific just take my word for it), including Steve’s entries in wikipedia, comicvine and the Marvel database, that say he was born in 1920.

But since Avengers: Roll Call is the latest updated piece of official info that we have I guess for now 616!Steve’s birthday is July 4, 1922 (which means that Joseph Roger’s death would probably be bumped some years further because there is no way he could have died in 1920 now).

That means 616!Steve is 4 years younger than movie!Steve O_O which means 616!Steve was 23 when he got frozen (movie!Steve was 27).

BTW do we have a birth date for Ultimate Cap?

    Ditto, I always imagined 616!Steve to be around 25-27 when he got frozen and then found by the Avengers. It’s also kind...
