Unknown Soldier can fly in to 1941 Berlin and take people from there back to England easily. The guy could have won World War II for the allies in a week. |

Captain Victory is now my Superman analogue. I dropped the starfish mask and gave him long pants, a cape, and a back story. Marcia Lopez is my Lois Lane and Ambassador Lansing is my Perry White. |
