In Marvel Comics, Captain America has always been one of those heroes who's set apart for the combination of his skills: Superhuman strength, the power to defend himself against any foe with an almost impenetrable Captain America shield - a combination that has set him apart in countless events - one that shows his ability to move at superhuman speeds as he fends off villains. Captain America often takes on roles within these stories where he acts as a moral authority. Fans are often moved by how Captain America is a symbol of strength and righteousness. He consistently fights against evil while often providing wisdom to those who work with him, which helps to solidify him as a strong, influential figure in Marvel Universe.

In Marvel Zombies, his role has transformed dramatically and has introduced a world where the heroic actions of this iconic figure, Captain America, are changed by this infectious and potentially world-ending virus, a disease that will have serious implications, particularly as those watching discover how Steve Rogers becomes a formidable zombie - a "Captain America zombie" in this universe.

Fans are left to wonder if this means the end of a classic figure from the comic book's storyline. This has raised significant questions regarding the fate of Captain America. But many have come to appreciate the storyline in "Marvel Zombies: Dawn of Decay" and how it is taking a more complex direction - especially considering that Captain America's transformation is also connected to the events and those actions of Groot. It appears that a major turning point was reached in how the "Zombie Apocalypse" came about.

Fans of "Captain America" are now focused on those elements of how this event will transform Marvel Comics' characters and its overarching narrative - even if Captain America's story is irrevocably altered as the Marvel Zombie - he will still appear in some instances as a central, critical character - a role he still takes on despite his transition. This also helps showcase how Marvel Universe - with its cast of incredible characters are often tested.

It is an odd turn of events as fans watch these characters in Marvel Zombies, as Captain America has an immense and long history of heroism - with this, fans tend to place their trust and affection in this hero and are shocked by his turn of events and those comments he makes to Groot. Fans have seen him be supportive and loyal.

Fans of Captain America are surprised. This makes them ponder if the show will further explore just why this is happening as it appears to be an unexpected turning point, especially with those characters such as Groot (an important character, whose journey has spanned many different series across Marvel) as well as those others such as Rocket and Star-Lord (whose individual personalities - in the Guardians of the Galaxy have often been perceived as somewhat brash) will have an impact on the overall narrative.
