You're right, it is pretty darn ambiguous. I've read the series, and while there is no outright references to the super-soldier serum or Captain America, the Destroyer clearly possesses superhuman strength (He punches through a guy's skull in the very first panel). Also, the process through which he derived his powers seems to be replicable as his sidekick has the same power-set. Finally, in one panel when they venture into Marlow's basement, next to his original World War II era costume is Captain America's original triangular-shaped shield.

On the other hand, however, Marlow appears to work for a SHIELD-like agency that isn't SHIELD and often goes up against a HYDRA-like group that isn't HYDRA. It's called Horde, a group that I can't seem to find anything on.
