I would probably have set Cap at 20th level, yeah.
I also think I would straight up have given him Superhuman Dexterity. He seems *really* good with that shield and *really* hard to hit.
This is a reason I don't make a distinction between normals and supers at a rules level. Whether he's superhuman or not, I don't have a problem with Cap (or Batman) having Superhuman Dexterity.

Wasn't sure if I should have added Superhuman Strength or just raise his Str score high, Wiki says he can lif close to 1000lbs (or Superhuman strength PL2?) But wasnt sure the best way to limit just his strength with a lower PL

This I can almost guarantee, because it's quick and easy for a dispatch.
Hopefully yes, at least in little dispatch-sized adventures.
We have at least three more supers dispatches "in the can". Milke Lafferty is converting a M&M adventure he did called 6th Seal to Supers20.
The first of those should hit in a couple of weeks, we have some Soldiers and Spellfighters dispatches to get out first.
So, my campaign is going along great! We kinda have a marvel/DC mixed world, with a bit of james bond added to it. The group of heroes is brought together by a splinter group of the CIA, called Central Enforcement agency of Law and Liberty (or C.E.L.L. for short) Super powered heroes policing super powered heros and villians is the basis.
So - we have a new guy start last night and ask what kinda super he wants to play and a single word pops out which through me for a loop. He says, "Jedi" "I want to be a jedi." For a minute I almost was going to say no, but as a testament to the games versatility, I helped him create one. And its totally working in the game.
His back story helped the other players accept him - in his galaxy far far away his hyperdrive motivator jams and he is flung into our solor system and crash lands on earth.
Quick and easy and I said, if superman and Jonn Jonn'z are here why no a jedi?
So - at first level here is Talo Kain - Padawan
