If there had been a hero registration in his world before he'd been made president, every hero on that registration list would quickly found themselves either assassinated or blackmailed into obedience to Luthor while that hero's children or grandparents were the guests of Guitanamo Bay.<br /><br />Even without Luthor as president, agencies in the U.S. government have been responsible for torture and imprisonment of anyone identified as a mutant, no matter how law-abiding or innocent.<br /><br />No, the greatest supervillain organization in the comic books is not the Maggia, or the Hand, or the Overgang, or the Legion of Supervillains; it's one of the agencies of the U.S. government or, at one time, the Oval Office itself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-11696304523721486502009-06-20T05:49:49.992-04:002009-06-20T05:49:49.992-04:00I agree with the above Anonymous comment on the in...I agree with the above Anonymous comment on the incentive program, and i have one thing I think should be added to it: tax breaks for metahumans who use their powers in a constructive but non-crimefighting way, like Magneto getting a tax deduction if he used his magentic powers for construction rather than terrorism. <br /><br />some might complain that metahumans who use their powers commercially could drive human competition out of business, but I believe the demand for their services would far exceed the supply, allowing them to charge a hefty premium for their super-service that would still leave plenty of budget-conscious customers for the human competition. <br /><br />and yes, I would be willing to pay extra for pizza delivered by mutant teleportation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-68071616296575954132009-06-18T18:43:40.615-04:002009-06-18T18:43:40.615-04:00I'd suggest incentives for metahumans to becom...I'd suggest incentives for metahumans to become superheroes (Advanced medical and dental programs provided by the government, maybe an insurance package for their families) and further incentives for heroes to join teams (Funding for HQs and vehicles, access to government databases on supervillains, basic law enforcement training, maybe some form of minimal pay).<br /><br />Most metahumans will probably never put on a pair of colourful tights. Combine an incentive program with normal legal penalties for bad behaviour, and we should be able to get most active metahumans to become heroes rather than villains. And we can do it without giving raving psychopaths a mandate to hunt and destroy their enemies, or penalizing those who want to help people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-38939555866323628032009-06-18T18:05:08.918-04:002009-06-18T18:05:08.918-04:00Actually, there are two prior (and better) example...Actually, there are two prior (and better) examples of sponsored teams/heroes: The Conglomerate (the first team Booster Gold tried to assemble when he left JLI) and American Flagg!, where everything was pretty much sponsored.Ricardohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13999757626100045058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-80640528031799486412009-06-18T16:04:46.118-04:002009-06-18T16:04:46.118-04:00On the DC side, there's the Suicide Squad that...On the DC side, there's the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_Squad" rel="nofollow">Suicide Squad</a> that is a team typically made up of 50% heroes and 50% villains working off their sentences.

Direct confrontations may lead to injuries incurred during the battle followed by jailtime, while hostage-takers might be given additional broken arms or legs beyond what happens during the rescue.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16132674237614327721noreply@blogger.com
