Captain America will be honored this summer by Marvel. To celebrate his 75th anniversary, a 13-foot bronze statue of the popular superhero will be unveiled this August in his hometown of Brooklyn in Prospect Park.
Paul Gitter, senior vice president of licensing for Marvel at Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media told USA Today,
“For the past 75 years, Captain America has inspired generations of fans serving as the ultimate global icon for freedom, strength and doing the right thing.”
With the success of Captain America: Civil War and his 75th anniversary, it has been quite a year for the Captain.
