Biography
Background
The history of this version of Steve Rogers is similar to his mainstream counterpart, being born on July 4, 1918 in New York to Joseph and Sarah Rogers. During the height of World War II, Rogers became the world's first super soldier and fought against the Axis Powers and HYDRA. He would stop the Red Skull from destroying the west, and sacrificed himself to going into the ice to prevent the bombs from landing in the states. After being thawed from the ice decades later, Rogers returned to heroics by becoming a founding member of the Avengers.
What If...?
In 2018, the Quantum virus started to spread across the United States after Janet van Dyne infected her husband after he saved her from the Quantum Realm, and proceeded to turn others. Rogers reunited with his teammates and Black Panther to San Francisco, California to stop the spread and the zombies there. During the battle at the Golden Gate Bridge, Captain America was attacked by a zombified Hank Pym, and transformed while Iron Man, Black Widow and Hawkeye were overwhelmed and turned as well. Though T'Challa survived the incident, he was captured by Vison, who brought him to Camp Leigh to be feasted on by an infected Scarlet Witch. Despite being infected, Rogers maintained most of his intelligence and was capable of using his enhanced abilities and shield to fight his victims if they resisted.
Two weeks into the outbreak, Rogers intercepted a train at the Grand Central Terminal that was carrying survivors, and ambushed Sharon Carter. He succeeded in infecting Carter, and confronted Bucky Barnes alongside Sharon in their attempt to infect him. Despite putting up a fight against Barnes, Rogers was sliced in half by his own shield, killing the undead super soldier. The rest of the surviving Avengers then traveled to Wakanda with the Mind Stone in a attempt to find a way to make a cure for the Quantum virus.
