What is the Captain America meme?

The Avengers franchise introduced several Captain America memes such as:

• The Hail Hydra Elevator Battle.
• “No, I don’t think I will”
• ‘So you have detention’
• Steve Rogers vs Iron Man

The Hail Hydra meme series is a series of image macros that assemble scenes from Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Avengers: Endgame.

The image composition shows the aforementioned hero in a fight with undercover henchmen of the villainous organization Hydra.

After the release of Endgame, a scene featuring an older version of Captain America started trending.

Towards the end of the scene with the older hero, Falcon, his teammate from Avengers, asks him, “Do you want to tell me about her?”

To which Steve Rogers replies, “No, I don’t think I will.”

Still images from the scene are used by social media users to express disapproval.

Following the release of Spider-Man: Homecoming, Steve went viral again with yet another image macro.

In a scene from the film, Steve as Captain America takes on a high school PSA, which begins by saying, “So, you have detention.”

Online users have repurposed this scene, often replacing “detention” with another word or phrase for humorous effect.

Another of Captain America’s viral moments was his tense duel with Iron Man from the first Avengers film.

The image macros show the two heroes in a tense conversation and when used on social media can represent any two opposite points of view.

What is an image macro?

An image macro is an online image or media form with text superimposed on the image.

The texts are usually displayed at the top or bottom of the image.

The image can be a still from a movie, TV show, or any other form of media that web browsers happen to find.

Most image macros are used for comic effects and meme purposes.
