I've never really understood Captain America. I get his origin, but what about him is so great other than his morals? Wuwu leet shield. And the morals bent seems like it would restrict the direction you could take his character. He can't walk the middle of the road, he has to be good or he isn't Captain America. Again, a somewhat pointless story to tell.

Watch cap fighting spiderman in civil war. even when completely overpowering spiderman (including bypassing the spider sense for a large part) spiderman was completely overthrown by the sheer respect he had for Steve Rogers. Hell, even the PUNISHER refused to fight him because he respected cap too much. Cap was a symbol, He was WAY more then a guy in a suit with a funky shield. Superheroes respected him, enemies feared him. He did step away from his goody goody image before civil war, going under the alias of Nomad.
As for Iron man getting the snot beaten out of him by Thor. Why do you think Iron man even stands half a chance vs. a GOD. It's technology vs. one pissed off deity. a god of THUNDER vs. a guy in a metal suit. iron man never stood a chance.
