Tom Evans / Captain Canuck

“Need help getting up? Or is this one of the days that the floor is more comfortable.”

“Rough day?”

“Yes. That was back when I had an animated series. Which most of the run time was credits.

…at least the music was good.”

Oh yes. Go ahead. Take a bite without asking.

…I think a certain Canadian has been spending a little too much time down south.

…sweet chili mayo, actually. I like a bit of subtle heat.

Slowly sips his double double

“……There sure are a lot of American superheroes.”

“Sounds risky for anyone who’d join you for dinner.”

“Figured. Does seem to take a lot of focus.”

“I would not recommend eating a gun.”

“Requesting Incredible Poutine?”

“I don’t hate Steve Rogers or his flag. Or the country. But I do have very strong opinions about certain politicians who could use a good elbow to the face.”

// Brief political commentary here.

From myself and a lot of Canadians, we don’t hate America (most of it). We don’t hate the American people (most of them).

We hate the president, the government, the billionaires and corporations taking advantage of the situation. We just don’t like bullies.

“Canada wins!”

“We will not bow down to bullies.”

Now what gets me is Captain America’s shield vs Captain Canuck’s bio armor.

While the bio-armor covers Tom’s whole body and is bulletproof and explosion proof, he can still feel pain and the armor can be pierced with sharper objects. And it can be weakened as well.

// Captain Canuck vs Captain America

Probably biased but I feel like Tom has the edge when it comes to strength and tech/weapons, while Steve has the edge in experience, and overall fighting styles/skills. Both are probably evenly matched in speed and reflexes.
