when thinking about leaders of superhero teams, you usually get a justified debate on who leads the best. Justice league is usally between superman and batman with wonder women as well. X-men have cyclops, wolverine, charles x and storm. Many kings and queens of groups rule like kings and queens and have too. Teen titans was usually nightwing by my memory most of the time.
But when it comes to the avengers their was really never any arguement at all about it! Not only was capt the leader of leaders, he was always looked at as being the leader no matter what team he was apart off. Even teams like the unity squad that had other leaders on it either deferred to capt allot of the time or made mistakes themselves in battle looking at him like a leader! Even in the pleasant hill arc recently, when capt become young again he officially was looked at as leader, no question asked if he was ready, he just was!!!
I don't know of any and i mean any character in fiction that has ever commanded this much respect by such a huge variety of fighters, heros, warriors, kings, titans and even demi-gods look up to steve rogers! He maybe mortal, but he commands higher then any immortal i have ever seen in comics that i have read up to this point or any media i have seen him in and that is saying allot with how much is out their of other brands of leaders!
Steve rogers is the greatest wwii veteran and warrior in history and has commanded in some of the greatest battles both street and cosmic in comic history, all with just powers that are on the level of best of the best humans can be, he has gone toe-to-toe with demi-god want-a-bees and alien empires!
Honestly steve prove with and without the super solider serum that he commands the best when he is just present!!!
The video below is a fun example, but it gets to the heart of what i am saying, in the whole of the video!
