For me it’s Peggy from Mad Men. At first I thought she was going to be an annoyance but half way through the first season I’ve grown to absolutely love her!

MCU’s Captain America. I remembered some old comic books with him and always disliked his blind and unreasonable patriotism. The MCU version was a refreshing take on the character.
I’m curious which comic you read exactly? I’m questioning the comment about the always “blind and unreasonable patriotism” you mentioned.
Cap in the comics continually goes against the government and corruption since his re-introduction in the 60s. He’s always been a man for the people.
He talks about the American Dream and wears the Stars and Stripes specifically because he is fighting for what America should be and has continuously been about fighting to ensure that all people are provided equity and inclusion. He even threw away the costume and became Nomad for a while because he was so disgusted with America (the storyline mimicked Nixon and Watergate). He’s fought nationalists, nazis, and neo nazis.
Edit: not trying to downplay your personal feelings. I’m just generally curious what you read because that’s not my experience from reading an omnibus containing 60’s to mid-2000’s.
Oh, no worries at all. I read some which were digitalised, probably from the 50s and early 60s (that’s a big guess from my side judging from the drawing style). Those put me off regarding the character as a whole until the first MCU movie was released. Once I subscribe to the Marvel online reader again, I’d like to read some more older ones in case you’ve got some recommendations for me. :)
I could probably recommend some. Do you want Steve Rogers, Sam Wilson, or Bucky Barnes versions?
That’s very kind of you. Steve Rogers, please. :)
