With regards to actual terms of a 'super'hero,
Captain America is more of a superhero than,
say, Batman or Hawkeye or Black Widow.
He was injected with super soldier serum which
gives hims super strength, agility, speed, healing,
and has increased his brain function so he is
a master technician.
Batman has a suit, some toys, a car and money,
there is nothing 'super' about that hero.
Likewise with Hawkeye and Black Widow, both
are trained S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, however,
neither have anything that makes them 'super'
that they haven't trained for.
However, they are all considered superheroes.
So therefore, Das, I have to disagree. Captain
America is a superhero.
To me, super heroes have super powers, just as you described. I still have love for Batman. People tend to rip on him because he has no powers, but who says super powers make the hero.
Wayne (Batman) has trained in martial arts, devoloped detective skills which allows him to percieve things, and with the combined help ofhis butler, he is able to invent gadgets and cool stuff.
I'm not trying to say you are wrong about Batman, but some heroes or anti-heroes have redeeming qualities without super powers.
(Why am I speaking up for Batman? Because the Dark Knight is my homie.)
Why does everyone think I was dissing Batman?
I used two other examples of Hawkeye and
Black Widow, yet everyone thinks I was dissing
Batman.
In no way did my comment say that he wasn't
a superhero. In fact, I said that he was regarded as
a superhero, along with Hawkeye and Black Widow,
even though none of them have super powers.
They are still superheroes.
This comment was in reply to Das, who said that
Captain America wasn't a super hero.
Ugh!
