I think it might be the leader of the santerians from DD: Father. their fighting styles were similar. The image that keeps popping in my head is from CW Daredevil flipping a coin, Im pretty sure Ive seen some other heroe/villain doing the same thing, cant remember from where.(No, Im not thinking Two-Face)

People harp on Stark for making a deal with villians, but Batman did the same thing in Kingdom Come. But in the end, we saw that he had a plan. Give Stark a chance to play his hand before you condemn him.
Oh I agree it could work, I was just calling Stark a hypocrite. He goes on about the super-hero registration act to make people feel safer but his big plan involves utilising villains, the reason why the act came into place and the reason why people don't feel safe in the first place 🙂
I don't agree with this whole heroes going public...They aren't heroes anymore...Just Super-Soldiers or Agents...Peter Parker or anybody unmasks him/herself will be like or worse than a superstar. You can't even walk in the park without people asking you or it's him/her, or have quiet dinner iwht your girlfriend,he/she will get letters too much letters, journalists all around ya, no private life. Just with thi you end up worse than superstars and in the end no hero stuff just drugs-n-alcohol just put you through stuff....

Number one, I think you're a bit dramatic here. In the end, they just end up as druggies and drunks? Taking quite a leap there...
Number two, nobody--I repeat--NOBODY is forcing the heroes to reveal themselves, even to the public. They were asked to register with the government. If they did not want to do that, they can always "hang up the tights" and not have to worry about the ramifications of a revealed identity.

If i were the heroes I would "hang my tights" for a while and when the next big threat comes let the government fend for themselves, see how long they last. Specially against cosmic threats.
