My favorite part of the Cap vs. Thanos showdown is when the Surfer misses his chance to grab the Infinity Gauntlet, so Captain America just straight punches Thanos in the face anyway. Sure, Thanos snaps his neck with a backhand just a second later, but Captain America saw that a spacegod was going to kill the universe, so he wanted to at least try to deck him.

This is why I love '90s Cap. It's fashionable today to make him into a relic of WWII Bombastic America with full-blown jingoism. But when Gruenwald was writing him, you got a well-balanced patriotism combined with a real sense of love for the country and what it could be..and how it was a battle for a delicate soul instead of mindless mottos shouted over and over again.
