Scott Supplement - Civil War


"You know, I’m really enjoying Civil War and all, but I have to say I think the logic behind the whole thing is just a wee bit faulty. So for decades there have been super powered maniacs running around, killing, stealing, and – oh – occasionally trying to take over/destroy the nation or planet and the response of the government and S.H.I.E.L.D has essentially been, “Ho hum, the Avengers (etc.) took care of it nothing to see here folks move along move along.”

But when a few essentially benign costumed vigilantes fail to freaking register they’re all like, “We are freaking MOBILIZED and ready to MESS YOUR SH!T UP, you masked scumbag!” And just in a matter of weeks, at that. You’d think they would have put at least half as much effort into protecting people from – say – the bastards tearing around the country causing mayhem and destruction and generally being antisocial dicks as they’ve expended in trying to take down Captain America. Maybe it’s an election year?"
