The sacred liquid did more than just restore Steve’s wounds, it granted him superhuman abilities and eternal youth. On their return to England, Steve and Buchanan were lost to the sea. Roughly 600 years later, with the use of modern technology SHIELD discovered the body of Steve frozen under several thousand layers of ice, still grasping the holy grail. They brought him back to their HQ and revived him using the relic. Steve awakens in a future impossible for him to comprehend, he is sent to a special center within SHIELD’s headquarters where he tries to find his place in this new world. It is here that he meets a group known as the Avengers, a group dedicated to saving the world.
