"My Captain America" is the touching story of Meghan Margulis about her grandfather Joe Simona, who will forever remain for her Papuela Joe. For us, he is one of the legends of the amazing world of Marvel Comics.
In the period of the 1980-1990s, New York Streets were a dangerous place, starting from the thefts with a hack to the shootings of drug dealers. Megan at home, too, did not go smoothly: life with a family of five people in a tiny two -room apartment cannot be called calm. The only salvation for Megan was the studio of her grandfather, Joe Simon, who later became her second home.
Megan, with great love and attention to the details, tells the biography of Joe Simon, from his childhood and conquering New York to cooperation with Jack Kirby and World Recognition. The result of this friendship was the creation of important characters in the Golden Age "comics of the 1930-1940s, such as the Fiery Mask and Captain America, as well as Joe Simon, headed the editorial office of Timely Comics, which will subsequently rename the well-known Marvel Comics.
In this biography, you will see the legend of the world of comics through the eyes of his loved ones: friends and family, in his small but cozy apartment with a view of the night of New York, where he continued to create fantastic worlds of comics until his death. And where his free and ironic spirit still remains
