Ironman and Captian America, however, lead the charge with different views on a newly announced governmental bill...
Granted, heroes "fly in" when there is absolutely nobody else on the planet can do anything about the problem, they also save over half a million lives and even the whole world from lunitic aliens with subjugation issues.. And granted, after fighting off an army of radioactive ninjas, the heroes are pretty much exhausted-- DROP. DEAD. EXHAUSTED!
Nevertheless, speaking on behalf of a few civilians I know, I should think there would still be something for a superhero to help rebuild after a week or four of resting up, so why not come back and lend a constructive hand?...
... I dunno. Honestly, I can't judge. I have instant healing abilities and cause little to no property damage when thrown at a brick wall.
Of course, I understand the heroes side of the argument too. I mean honestly, are you under some delusion that there would be less of a mess if we didn't show up? Hehehe no. Just picture all that building rubble as people rubble. Aliens don't want you, they want the planet. Nuff said.
Yet I digress. This is not about whether it's right or wrong to make a mess on behalf of saving the world and not helping clean it up afterward-- Though personally, I think as far as that goes, Ultron should have been an "After-Super-Battle Clean-Up Droid" rather than a "Replace the Super-Hero Entirely Droid" which would have saved everyone A LOT OF TROUBLE and Ironman calls himself a genius. puh!--- But again, that is really not the point.
What Ironman and Captain America are disagreeing about is whether the government should be involved in summoning forth a legion of superheroes whenever they see fit, whether the heroes wanna help, don't wanna help, or simply can't help; being little more than a body to throw at the enemy due to colds or leg injury.
Yet, I'm reminded, we are talking about the same people who were gonna nuke Manhattan just because it was being invaded by aliens-- Like that's never happened before. Not to mention the fact the portal would still be open and the aliens were pretty much mutant boogers anyway, so a little radiation wouldn't have hurt 'em at all and they just would have kept coming-- But again, I digress.
ANYWAY!
The government wants heroes to register... Or maybe they just want the Avengers to register. I'm not sure. I haven't really heard anything about it personally because, like I said, my super-battles don't damage anything but myself. Nevertheless, this is not the first time I've heard the term "Registered Superhero" in my life.
In fact, my younger sister, Vortex, is a registered superhero who wears it proudly and recommends it on a regular basis. My twin sister; Galaxia, however, is adamantly opposed to registering, and is even considered a phantom menace in some countries for lack of governmental respect...
In her defense, she's a living rip in space; hence a piece of outer-space, hence it would kinda be ridiculous for her to respect one single government on one single continent of one single planet.
And, I think we can all agree, the people of Earth have joined their alien neighbors in becoming stark-raving control freaks:... The only difference being, we like to subjugate each other instead of other planets. But that's REALLY beside the point.
...Wow, I'm bad at staying on topic.
ANYWAY!
So that's what I hear is currently going on with my superbuds.. Sad really. And not to jump to conclusions, or point fingers, or do anything really, but I smell another hero vs. hero duke-out shaping up here.
Lloyd Out!
