Lol. I tried to get Dane at first but he's a crafty Australian. Please, I've been fighting sharks since I was a kid and they're like the Loki's of the ocean. Your deception has nothing on them. It was ignorant of me to try.

Annihilation wanted to make me read more of him, I just never got the chance. Read his title by DnA. It went from Annihilation (actually Annihilation: Nova) until The Thanos Imperative. Something like 36 issues. You will love it. He's a bad ass. One of my top 3 favs I'll read it sometime then. I loved Annihilation and like Thanos Imperative, so It only makes since.

Ronaldo is shit. Gerrard is a complete midfielder. Stick the ability of Messi. You've got the perfect player. False. Ronaldo actually creates things much more on his own as compared to Messi who depends a lot on his teammates (Xavi and Iniesta two of the best midfielders and passers in the entire world) to pass him the ball and get him in the right areas all the time. Not saying he can't create on his own, but on top of that, Ronaldo is dangerous with his head, where Messi has almost never scored a header. Both are great finishers, passers, dribblers, etc, but Ronaldo is just a more complete player in my eyes. The reason he doesn't score with his head is because Barcelona don't play like that. They don't even cross corners. They play them short then play it back into the centre. That's the reason he doesn't score headers. But when he does, they look like this...
and especially the last one. Remember, Messi is 5'7" tall, that's short. I should know, because that's my height. Ronaldo is 6'1" tall. Makes it easier for him to score headers.
With Xavi and Iniesta in the centre, it makes it may look like Messi doesn't create his own chances. But that's false. Messi does it all the time. With that midfielder, it just makes things easier.
Messi does things like this a lot.
And to world class players.
In the English Premier League, Ronaldo always got taken out by Gerrard because he was predictable. Kaka was faster than Ronlado.
Sorry for the off topic debate.

Does it have to be from comics? 'Cause I once made an amalgam character that was sort of a cross between Spider-Man and Zuko (Avatar). I always loved the idea of adding sweet superhuman athletic stats to Zuko's firebending and martial arts skill. I call him Dynamo, and plan on using him for a superhero RPG if we ever get one going.

I'll make an exception for Avatar characters, considering I love them so much

SM- Oh I'm well aware of what Messi can do, he is amazing. Messi and Ronaldo are undoubtedly the two best players in the world. I know he is short and it's tough to score headers because I'm short too. But regardless, having Barcelona's play style and having Xavi and Iniesta, the two best center mids in the world, plays right into Messi's style perfectly. He couldn't be on a better team for him. I just think over all that Ronaldo is a bit better.
And when Ronaldo was in the EPL he had not reached his prime yet. He had that one really good season, but he really started to shine at Madrid. He has just been an absolute beast the past few seasons.

Ronaldo has probably played better at Real. However, he was doing better at United than he was for Real. He may just score more goals at Real. And a lot of them goals come in bulk. Hat tricks and such. And there was an occasion I think he scored about 5/6 goals against a team. But when he played against a team with class, he struggled. Messi makes world class played look average.
I believe all of my football loving friends believe Messi is better than Ronaldo. And there is a lot of them. Messi been considered the best player in the world for the last 2 maybe 3 season. And he started that title at 21/22. And he's only turned 24 now. Ronaldo's 26. And Messi's been better for than him for a while. And Ronaldo's been playing at top level for 8/9 years. Messi 5/6 years. Messi also has another 4 years to reach his prime. Ronaldo's entering it and he's still not as good as Messi is now.
Don't let Xavi and Iniesta around to supply Messi change view of Messi being amazing. Because Ronaldo has world class players surrounding him as well. Also, Real have world class players ready to come into place in case of injuries. Barca' don't have that, however they still do amazing when one or two players are out. I remember a game, I think it was against Villareal when Xavi (injured) and Iniesta (suspended due to yellow card limit ) were not playing and Messi ran rings around them with a lesser team.

Grendel and Daredevil: He'd kinda be like Shadow land DD with a cooler weapon and he'd occasionally hunt the criminal populace.

Not only would that be the most powerful Superhero ever, it also sort of looks like my name! [/Naivete]
I tried to come up with a combination of heroes that would make your name but there are no Emu-based Superheroes.
