No, I don't think so. Have you read Ultimate Nightmare? Russia's super soldier program bit it a while ago...

One of Russia's super-soldier programs. Black Widow mentioned being aware of six and the Nightmare-Centric one is the seventh so there's plenty of opportunities for more. But she's already openly the product of one of those programs, just with a different aim than direct combat in mind.
 
But don't you think that since there's been so many attempts that have floundered that no one super soldier program is strong enough to support a World War? Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but I'm thinking Russia missed the boat on this one.

The whole point is that its not just one super-soldier program trying to carry this plot idea. There are so many programs its not relying on a single one to carry the story but the continuous variants of the different varieties of super-soldier.

I cannot argue against.
 
Well, I'm guessing you're right, however, I don't think there is any one that can take down Captain America. All of them are far less sophisticated than ours and I'm not just saying that.
 
I think your getting Captain Britain confused with Snowbird perhaps Goody. Captain Britain is just called Captain Britain, he has no special connection with the country whereas Snowbird has her connection with Canada. Captain Britain's powers come from a combination of things including his suit, a resurrection by Merlin and Roma, a live extending fluid and various other things.

No..he is spot on. Although THIS one is 616

http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/c/capbrit.htm

Powers/Abilities: Captain Britain is a hybrid human/Otherworldian. All of his powers-- energy storage, flight, super strength (100 tons)-- are derived from his alien origin. In the past, Captain Britain has used mechanical devices to augment his powers. His last suit had an energy force field that could be extended and used as a weapon.

His superhero costume amplifies this ability, granting him super human strength, speed, endurance, the ability to fly, and projects a personal force field with extreme resistance to most forms of attack. Early in his career, Braddock was able to project his force field outward and manipulate it, like an extended pair of hands, Braddock was able to use his powers without his costume on, but without it, his powers operated at a lesser extent and perhaps not at all, if away from Britain for an extended time.
 
Going on about the Ultimate Cap Britain.

His uniform looks like it's modeled on Cap americas. I doubt it is magic that is his power source knowing the ultimate worlds 'ultimizing(TM)' approach.

Also i doubt he is anywhere near class 100 strength or even Ironmans Strength level by the look of his only showing so far. Although it is safe to say

1. He can fly
2. He has augmented powers of strength
3. Can function and communicate underwater
4. A braddock
5. is half german

Obviously the fly bit is still open to debate as it was only shown on the cover but the others are cast iron.

I'd be much more inclined to believe that if it was grammatically correct. It disagrees with my information which I'm going to dig out now so I'm going to stick with that.
 
Wait, this coming issue? I don't think so... I thought this was the issue that introduced all of the hero teams and it will introduce the fight between the Ultimates and Thor. There's too much there already; Millar's got his work cut out for him.

Woops! **smacks self on the head**


Sorry, I don't know why, but I was thinking issue 6 and not 4.
 
Getting a little anxious there, Osrick? ;)

Well, do you think that the European teams will have anything to do with Thor and Loki?
 
:shock: I'd be much more inclined to believe that if it was grammatically correct. It disagrees with my information which I'm going to dig out now so I'm going to stick with that.

Well you are wrong, Please feel free to pick up a Marvel UK comic or do a goggle search. Then again please don't let a little thing like facts get in your way!


Goodwill right you are, grammer poor my sorry. Cacadus wrong is he but grammer perfect important more. :lol:

Not many more issues to go now. And all theses super soldiers appearing i doubt that will be involved in taking down Thor although i can see that they will have more role in the aftermath of the Thor story.

Eg Thor is found out to be Actually a god
Thor is ala Fight Club and both Thor and Loki
Thor is Nuts
Thor is something else (alien race etc)

I think there will be some fragmentation and that this will all go political and be 'facist/capatilistic authoritarian' newworld order on one side (fury, hawkeye,BW etc) Vs 'Socialistic/idealistic, anti authority' teams on the other (Thor,Hank defenders)

With some of the facist team (iron man) being taken for a ride by maybe having his tech stolen, The socialist side having no big hitters and there only one (thor) losing or out of action

And the angst Cap America goes through before turning against the new world order and siding with the people rather than the grammatically correct authorities.

:?
 
Oh forgot to mention, in response to the post Well, do you think that the European teams will have anything to do with Thor and Loki?

I put the supersoldiers under the new world order with the idea that the state knows whats best for us.

Yeah, I've got to give you that. My only excuse was that I was in a foul mood at the time. Sorry 'bout that.

I don't know if your aware the many of the UK comics aren't considered in continuity for the American Marvel timelines and so on which is why our information doesn't match up.

Hey, I've even got a thread about it. But you do have to admit, if random sentences in a piece of informationd don't make sense, you probably shouldn't trust the information as much.
