Walker's time as Captain America very nearly succeeded in bringing the Red Skull's vision to fruition. His parents were killed by a group known as the Watchdogs, one of the groups secretly run by the Red Skull. This drove Walker to the edge, and he began a steady streak of murder. He massacred many Watchdog members and ended several missions with fatal results.Walker eventually fought Steve Rogers, who temporarily took the name The Captain in his continued fight for justice. The two fought, and eventually The Red Skull's plan was revealed. Walker realized the he could not be the type of man necesary to wear the Captain America uniform and asked Steve Rogers to take back his rightful uniform.
