i'm gonna guess the ability to suppress minorities, and to get into other superheroes business while making it seem as though he is very righteous. he can also rack up ridiculous sums in debt, and has some completely inept sidekicks. in one story, his right hand man accidentally shoots another superhero with his gamma ray while hunting zorks in sector 5. he's also very bossy, and feels as though he owns the superperson world.

Captain America didn't have any super powers, instead he was injected with Super Soldier Serium during world war two, transforming himself into essentially a human at it's peak - he could outsmart any spy and run a mile in a minute.

i went and read this comic online after reading this post, because i was that bored. After reading it, I have since grown more bored and am possibly a lesser person for having done so.

If you've read the recent issues, the latest one is a logical progression.

It's good.

I never got into those Civil War comics. I used to collect DC comics as a kid and when I quit smoking last Feb. I took up comic collection again. They say to pick up as many hobbies as you can to help, not sure if that was the deciding factor but over a year and I still haven't smoked. Anyway, at the time the Infinite Crisis was going on in the DC world, comics are expensive, so I chose to stick with DC. I haven't collected in about 8 months now but I actually did enjoy it.

It might be a bit nerdy but some of the story line is actually quite well done, there are a lot of good writers in the comic industry, many who could write novels if that was their choice.

Best news since Superman got his ass handed to him by Batman. I always hated the swarmy super heros.
