Just a little discussion

[silver-autumn.livejournal.com]

I recently started reading this really thought-provoking Graphic Novel called Irredeemable by Mark Waid and it set the plot bunnies loose in my mind. It's dark and a bit distrubing but ..pretty good.

Anyway I was thinking of writing some tony/cap inspired by this comic. So my question for discussion is this: What would it take to make Steve Rogers go bad?
Is he capable of going bad? We saw him be a bit of a rogue in Civil War but could he ever be considered a villian? What would have to happen in order for Captain America to go (for lack of a better term) to the dark side?

I've only been playing in this fandom for about three years now so I'm still pretty new. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Mods- I hope this post is alright. Let me know if it's outta line.

Sure, X-23 turned out all right, but then who many others could claim the same. In most cases like that Laura's the oddity. So it could go either way Plus, she had her mother to sort of give here that bit of humanity (albeit in a roundabout way that plagues the Wolverine clan like a bad funk).

But yea, I was sorta leaning towards the idea of good intentions and the road to hell sort of thing - as is the military's usual way to get people to do some pretty nasty things. If Steve's only moral compass is what his commanders give him, then it'd be easy for the wrong sort of guy(s) to take that and warp his patriotism(*cough*for God and Country*cough*).
