Biography[]
Docter Abraham Erskine developed the Super Soldier Serum to enhance physical abilities, dubbed Project Rebirth.
In 1943, Erskine was preparing to test the serum on his chosen candidate, Steve Rogers. While preparing Rogers for the test, Erkskine gave Peggy Carter the option of waiting in the booth, to oversee the test from a safe distance. However, Carter denied the offer, instead choosing to stay. Erskine then began the test, but in the process, the staff came under attack by hidden HYDRA agent Heinz Kruger, who set off a bomb killing Erskine and the other scientists.
With his death, the key to creating the serum was lost, though Carter replaced an injured Rogers in undertaking the test, becoming a super soldier, making Erskine's work a success.[1]
