Being one of Marvel’s oldest superheroes, Captain America has seen a lot of different versions.

Be it due to a different timeline, a multiverse being opened, or simply because of Steve Rogers's death, the infamous shield has been wielded by many. In fact, with so many faces involved, the original version ceases to be the strongest one. However, not all the versions of this beloved character fit the superhero category.

While some of these alternate variants abide by the infamous code of honor and valor, others are just downright evil. That said, differentiating between Cap’s good and bad versions is a debate for another day. For now, here are the most powerful versions of Captain America, courtesy of the Marvel multiverse. 

                            1

                      US Agent

  The Government's Captain America

John Walker was an army veteran who decided to go through the Power Broker process to enhance his strength in order to become a hero to avenge his fallen brother. Originally going by Super-Patriot, he was later chosen to take up the mantle of Captain America when Steve  retired.

Although he was good-natured, he was sometimes too extreme in his methods and had some radical views, thus was not a true fit for the brand of Captain America. When Steve re-took the shield, he became the U.S. Agent but remained an Avenger. This story was even touched upon in the MCU, during The Falcon & The Winter Soldier series.

                  Bucky Barnes

              The Winter Soldier

Every Marvel fan is familiar with Bucky Barnes, aka, the Winter Soldier. The best friend turned foe, Bucky had always been a substantial character in the Captain America series. While the MCU version of him  never took the title of Captain America, his comic version became worthy of the shield.

Following the events of the Civil War in the comics, Steve Rogers is assassinated, leaving the role of Captain America without a face. To fill that hole, the newly rehabilitated Winter Soldier took the mantle. Combining his dark past and the motivation to honor his dead friend, Bucky proved to be a worthy leader. However, Bucky’s time as Captain America was short-lived, as Steve Rogers eventually returned to reclaim his title.

                 Captain Carter

What If Steve's Love Got The Serum

The character of Peggy Carter first appeared back in 1966, but it wasn't until her inclusion in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that she was fleshed out in the comics. One of these was a 'What If?' style adventure which asked the question if she was chosen for the Super Solider Serum rather than her love Steve.

First shown in Marvel Puzzle Quest in 2016, she has all the bells and whistles of Captain America but with a British theme instead. She went on to appear in Marvel's What If? animated series and even in live-action in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

            Captain Colonies

    A Product Of The Multiverse

For those who aren’t regular comic readers, this one may come as a shock. Simply because one of the most powerful variants of Captain America, isn’t called Captain America. This is where things get interesting as the Marvel multiverse opens, and spits out Captain Colonies.

Part of an alternate universe, Captain Colonies belongs to a multiversal group of heroes called the Captain Britain Corps. Similar to the Green Lantern Corps , this group includes multiple Captain Britains hailing from different universes, with their powers untold. With a strong group of soldiers to back him, Captain Colonies becomes another powerful addition to the Captain Americas of the multiverse.

                            5

              Steve Rogers 616

       The Original Captain America

Even with a ton of variants, nothing comes close to the original. While the Earth-616 version of Captain may not be the strongest, this is the one that fans always come back to. With his strict code of honor, bravery, and valor, this variant of Roger made Captain America one of the most iconic superheroes in the franchise.

In terms of sheer strength, the 616 Steve Rogers may lack a bit. But, what makes him truly powerful are his leadership abilities and his command over the Avengers. Not to mention, this is the version of Captain America that was worthy enough to wield Mjölnir, because of how pure he was.

                            6

                  Danielle Cage

           A Look Into The Future

The daughter of Jessica Jones and Luke Cage is yet another hero who takes up the responsibilities of Captain America. Inheriting the powers of both her parents, Danielle is a formidable hero in her own right. And, when combined with the ideals of Steve Rogers, along with a newly improved shield, she becomes one of the most powerful characters  to take up Captain America’s mantle.

In fact, through her journey in her dystopian reality, Danielle is mentored by Black Widow. This makes her character even stronger. On top of that, she has the ability to travel through time. Eventually, when all is said and done, she becomes the leader of the U.S. Avengers in her own universe.

                             7

                     Sam Wilson

        Steve Roger’s Chosen One

Despite the fact that Sam Wilson never got injected with the Super-Serum, he has taken the mantle of Captain America in various storylines. In the MCU version, Sam Wilson is chosen to be Captain America  by none other than Steve Rogers himself. While in the comics, one of the more popular storylines involves Sam stepping up to the position as Rogers becomes older.

In all cases, Sam proves to be worthy of Captain’s shield due to his honor and bravery. With the combined power of his wings, skills, and captain’s shield, Sam becomes a lethal hero on all fronts. And, earns his place as one of the strongest versions of Captain America.

                        MCU

Chris Evans Taking Cap To Another Level

The MCU version of Captain America is one that everyone is familiar with. Portrayed by Chris Evans,  this version of Cap is basically the same as Earth-616. And, with Chris Evans fitting the role like a glove, the character was brought to life and proved his worth ten times over.

Being worthy of wielding Mjölnir, this version of Captain America nearly took out Thanos on his own. On top of that, the iconic “Avengers Assemble” line had the entire MCU charging with him at his command. Combining the power of his shield, Mjölnir, and the entire Avengers, Cap became integral to the Avengers winning against their arch-nemesis.
