"Civil State of war" is a 2006–07 Curiosity Comics crossover storyline consisting of a 7-issue limited series of the same proper noun written by Mark Millar and penciled past Steve McNiven and various tie-in books. The storyline builds upon events in previous Marvel storylines, particularly "Avengers Disassembled", "House of Yard", and "Decimation". The series' tagline is "Whose Side Are You On?"[1]
The plot begins when the U.S. regime passes a Superhero Registration Deed, ostensibly to accept super-powered individuals act under official regulation, somewhat alike to law enforcement. Superheroes who oppose the act, led by Captain America, observe themselves in conflict with its supporters, led past Fe Man. Spider-Homo is defenseless in the eye, while the X-Men take a neutral stance. The superheroes who back up the police force, including Mister Fantastic and Ms. Curiosity, become increasingly disciplinarian. Civil War explores the conflict between liberty and security confronting a backdrop of real-life events and discussions, such every bit the U.S. authorities'southward increased surveillance of its citizens.[ii] [iii]
The serial polarized critics but information technology was a commercial success. A sequel, Civil War Ii, debuted in June 2016. The 2016 film Captain America: Ceremonious War in the Marvel Cinematic Universe loosely adapted the storyline.
Publication history [edit]
The Superhero Registration Act introduced in Civil State of war requires whatever person in the United States with superhuman abilities to register with the federal government as a "homo weapon of mass destruction," reveal their true identity to the regime, and undergo grooming. Those who register may work for South.H.I.East.L.D., earning a salary and benefits like other American civil servants.
Characters within the superhero community in the Marvel Universe dissever into two groups: 1 advocating the registration as a responsible obligation, and the other opposing the law on the grounds that it violates civil liberties and the protection that underground identities provide. While arguing with Iron Human being about the police force, Luke Cage (previously the 2d Ability Human being), an African American, compares the mandatory registration to slavery.[4] A number of villains also cull one side or the other.
Mark Millar, writer for the story, has said:
I opted instead for making the superhero dilemma something a little different. People thought they were dangerous, but they did not want a ban. What they wanted was superheroes paid by the federal government like cops and open to the same kind of scrutiny. It was the perfect solution and nobody, as far as I'm enlightened, has done this before.[5]
Delays [edit]
Curiosity appear in August 2006 that some issues of the chief Ceremonious War serial would be pushed dorsum several months to accommodate artist Steve McNiven. The schedule had issue #iv being released one month late, in September, while issue #v was released two months after, in November. Furthermore, various tie-in books including the Civil War: Front Line miniseries and tie-in problems of other comics were delayed several months so as not to reveal any plot developments.[6]
In belatedly November 2006, Marvel appear some other delay. Ceremonious State of war #half dozen, originally scheduled for release on December xx, was pushed back 2 weeks and released on January iv. Unlike the previous case, only The Punisher War Periodical #ii was delayed. In a concluding act of rescheduling, Civil War #7 was pushed back two weeks (from January 17 to January 31),[7] and then pushed back once again until February 21.[eight]
Behind the scenes [edit]
Afterward the publication of Ceremonious State of war #7, Mark Millar described the book to Newsarama equally "a story where a guy wrapped in the American flag is in chains every bit the people bandy freedom for security".[9] Millar conceded a "certain amount of political allegory"[9] but said its real focus was on superheroes fighting each other. Contrasting information technology with The Ultimates, Millar said Civil War was "accidentally political because I simply cannot help myself."[9]
Plot [edit]
The New Warriors (Dark Thrasher, Namorita, Speedball, and Microbe) battle a grouping of villains (Cobalt Human being, Speedfreek, Coldheart, and Nitro) in Stamford, Connecticut, while filming a reality television bear witness. Nitro explodes, killing more than than 600 people (including school children and all of the New Warriors except Speedball). The balance of the superheroes announced in Stamford to search for survivors.
Public stance turns against superhumans. Even the inactive members of the New Warriors are branded equally "baby killers". Hindsight (drastic to altitude himself from the team) releases their secret identities online, and several are attacked. She-Hulk forces Retrospect to shut downwardly the site, and Hindsight is arrested past John Jameson. Angry civilians attack the Human Torch outside a club after he cuts the line and arrogantly delivers the quip "When you salve the world from Galactus, you can likewise".
Guided by Iron Man, Congress chop-chop passes the Superhuman Registration Deed (SHRA), half dozen U.South.C. § 558,[10] requiring the registration of all persons with superhuman abilities with the U.S. government, and the enlistment and preparation of those wishing to operate as superheroes. The law applies to those with naturally-occurring superhuman abilities, those humans using exotic engineering (such as Iron Man), or anyone who wants to claiming the superhumans.[11] Enactment of the federal law leads to revisions of state criminal codes.[12]
Captain America refuses to join a Southward.H.I.E.L.D. strike force hunting superhumans in violation of the act, and is attacked by Due south.H.I.E.L.D.'south "Greatcoat-Killers", even though the act has not been passed withal. Later on, he becomes a fugitive and forms an underground resistance movement calling itself the "Secret Avengers". This team includes Hercules, Falcon, Danny Rand (who is acting every bit Daredevil in Matt Murdock'southward place),[13] Luke Muzzle, and the Young Avengers.[14] [xiii] Fe Human being, Reed Richards, Hank Pym (really a Skrull in disguise), and She-Blob come down in favor of the act. Spider-Human unmasks at a press conference every bit a show of support for the act.[13] Doctor Strange wants no part of the act and tells Iron Man and Mister Fantastic that they are never to telephone call on him again (the government declares Doc Strange exempt from the act).
The government-backed heroes runway downwardly unregistered superhumans and subsequently detain or register them. Helm America'south Secret Avengers and Atomic number 26 Man'due south Avengers stop up fighting in Yancy Street. The Affair, who was simply visiting the old neighborhood, gets roped into oversupply command. Notwithstanding, when a young member of the Yancy Street Gang is killed in the violence that ensues, Grimm, disgusted with both sides, leaves the country for France.
The Secret Avengers, responding to a false emergency, are lured into an ambush by the pro-registration forces. Every bit the battle turns confronting them, a new weapon is brought into play: Project Lightning, a cyborg clone of Thor (created from a few strands of the Asgardian's hair and empowered by a technological copy of Mjolnir). Confronted by Nib Foster, "Thor" sends a bolt of lightning through the hero'south chest, killing him. With both sides in shock, Cap orders a retreat. Sue Storm shelters the re-group Secret Avengers under an free energy shield, allowing their escape.
Bill Foster's death shakes upwardly both sides: Stature and Nighthawk surrender and register, while the Human being Torch and Invisible Adult female oppose the act. In plow, Pym drafts a sub-group of the Thunderbolts to their cause.[15]
Spider-Man demands to come across the concentration camp-styled prison facilities "42" in the Negative Zone.[16] He concludes that he has made a mistake by siding with Stark and attempts to defect from Iron Man'south side simply is confronted by Fe Man and, after a brief battle, escapes. Against Iron Human's will, he is hunted down and badly beaten by the Jester Three and Jack O'Lantern of the new Thunderbolts. The Punisher saves Spider-Man by killing the two villains, and carries him to a Secret Avengers safe-house. Later on recovering from his injuries, Spider-Man joins Cap'southward forces,[17] and makes a public statement in which he pledges to fight the Registration Human action.
The Punisher seeks to join Helm America's forces, pointing out that Iron Man's determination to utilize infamous mass murderers every bit enforcers of the human activity is what has motivated the vigilante to come out of hiding, although crime is at an all-time low every bit a result of the registered heroes. Captain America reluctantly accepts Punisher's offer of help.
Equally the Punisher makes his mode through the Baxter Building to call back plans for the Negative Zone prison, Sue Richards travels to Atlantis to persuade Namor to join the Secret Avengers, although he refuses. The supervillains Goldbug and Plunderer get in at the Secret Avengers' base of operations to join Helm America's team, merely the Punisher immediately kills them, leading Captain America to assail him and kicking him out of the group.
While meditating, Doctor Strange speaks with Uatu the Watcher, who asks Foreign why he doesn't use his immense power to end the conflict. Doctor Strange informs Uatu that the Sorcerer Supreme has no business organisation in flesh's internal struggles, just promises to pray for an event that volition do good mankind and spill the least amount of blood.
As the concluding battle begins Cloak teleports the combatants to New York Metropolis, where Namor and an army of Atlanteans make it to fight alongside the Secret Avengers, while the Champions, the Thor clone, and Helm Marvel reinforce Stark's team. Mister Fantastic saves Invisible Adult female from a bullet launched by Taskmaster, and Hercules destroys the Thor clone. The Thing returns to protect the citizens from harm. As Captain America is most to deliver a last blow to Iron Human being, policemen, EMTs, and firefighters try to restrain him. Realizing how much damage the fight has already inflicted upon the very people he wishes to protect, Captain America surrenders and orders his team to stand downward.

Other versions [edit]
Amazing Spider-Human: Renew Your Vows [edit]
When the Super-Human Registration Act was proposed, Professor X and the Avengers argued that mutantkind and super-powered communities should law themselves. Cyclops thought information technology was preposterous for Professor 10 to engage himself the representative of mutantkind, and his opposition to Xavier'southward proposal led Jean Grey to intermission up with him and marry Wolverine.[19]
Contest of Champions [edit]
The 2015 Contest of Champions series featured an alternate version of Civil War that had everything go in Tony Stark's favor. Five years afterward the war, Tony becomes the President of the U.s. and leads the Mighty Avengers as the Iron Patriot. His team consists of Penance (Robbie Baldwin), Iron Spider (Natasha Romanoff), Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers), and the Thor clone known equally Thunderstrike. Steve Rogers (no longer called Captain America) and his teammates take been arrested and buy time off their sentence past performing suicide missions as the Thunderbolts. Steve's team consists of Spider-Man (Peter Parker), Invisible Adult female, the Punisher, and Nib Foster's Goliath (who survived the Civil State of war in this reality).
President Stark and his Mighty Avengers are taken to Battleworld by Maestro and have their memories altered to think that they are on Earth and that the Renegade Champions already there are unregistered vigilantes. The Thunderbolts are sent to rescue them, but misunderstandings event in the deaths of Penance and Thunderstrike and all three teams start fighting each other. Tony kills Steve and reveals that he is in the possession of the Reality Gem from the Infinity Gauntlet. Tony and the members of the Illuminati divided the half dozen Infinity Stones afterward hunting them down and vowed never to use them. Only when Tony let the events of Civil War happen in their natural course, he couldn't resist using the Reality Precious stone to modify events in his favor. He used the gem to forbid the deaths of Goliath and Captain America, win the war, and rig the presidential election. He attempts to utilise it again to undo his killing of Steve, but it does non work since they were in some other dimension. Maestro kills Tony and the Punisher, but is stopped past the intervention of Stick, the Sentry, and Nigel Higgins using the Iso-Sphere. The remaining 5 heroes from the Mighty Avengers and Thunderbolts stay behind on Battleworld with the Sentry and fight villains attempting to gather the Iso-Sphere equally the Civil Warriors.[20]
Earth-3490 [edit]
When Mister Fantastic was researching realities where the Civil State of war ended differently, he found one reality in which their version of Anthony Stark was a woman named Natasha Stark. The Civil War was avoided entirely in this reality due to her spousal relationship to Steve Rogers, by deterring each other's more aggressive behaviour and allowing Reed Richards to complete the Super Hero Registration Program.[21]
Spider-Homo: Life Story [edit]
In a reality where all the characters age naturally after Peter Parker becomes Spider-Man in 1962, the Superhuman Registration Act was passed soon afterwards the September 11 attacks in 2001 and lasted for years. Equally a result, nigh of the heroes are middle-aged and older. In 2006, Ben Reilly (who was publicly known every bit Peter Parker/Spider-Homo) was murdered by Morlun, prompting the existent Peter Parker to return to New York to reveal he'due south alive to depict Morlun out to him and prevent Stark from taking control of Parker Industries. When Peter refuses Stark's offer to register, he is attacked by the U.Southward. Avengers (consisting of Tony Stark/Iron Man, James Rhodes/State of war Car, Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel, Natasha Romanoff/Blackness Widow, Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk, and Danny Rand/Iron Fist all wearing power armors) before he is assisted by the Anti-Registration Avengers (consisting of Steve Rogers/Captain America, Clint Barton/Hawkeye, Luke Cage, Tyrone Johnson/Cloak and Tandy Bowen/Dagger). Peter dons a new Spider-Human armor and defeats the U.Southward. Avengers with a device that exposes a fail-rubber Tony placed inside all of their armors. After Tony is revealed to exist a hologram and disappears, Spider-Man joins the Anti-Registration Avengers to follow his daughter'southward communication on leaving the world a better place for future generations.[22] A decade later, it is revealed that Dr. Doom took over the planet as the heroes were besides busy fighting each other (a reference to the 2015 Hugger-mugger Wars). Peter becomes the new leader of the resistance after all the other heroes died or disappeared from the public.[23]
Spider-Poetry [edit]
During an attempt past the reality-displaced Superior Spider-Man (Doctor Octopus' heed in Peter Parker'southward body) to reach back to his dimension as seen in the Spider-Verse storyline, he discovered an alternate dimension where a Civil War Fe Spider-Man lies dead (killed past Karn) prompting him to continue investigating the murders of Spider-Men throughout the Multiverse.[24]
What If? [edit]
In What If Ceremonious War Concluded Differently?, a stranger appears in forepart of Fe Man, who is visiting Captain America's grave at Arlington National Cemetery. Tony Stark is told of two alternate ways the Civil War could have concluded:[25]
- The first is detailed in, "What if Captain America led all the heroes against the Registration Act?" In this reality, Tony Stark dies of the Extremis virus, leaving the U.S. government to choose Steve Rogers as the spokesperson for heroes, who, every bit in the regular universe, opposes the Registration Act. Though he manages to filibuster its passing, the Stamford disaster occurs as in Earth-616. Without Tony to provide a fairer path for registration, the government'south response is more farthermost. Government forces led by Henry Peter Gyrich destroy the resistance and many heroes are slain.
Faced with this vision, Tony believes that this proves that he was correct to pursue his pro-registration grade of action, but the stranger then reveals another possibility;
- The second is detailed in, "What if Fe Human lost the Civil State of war?" In this reality, Iron Man asks for Cap's help during the confrontation at the power plant instead of threatening him, admitting his doubts about his actions rather than trying to justify them, and thus Cap does not apply the hidden weapon in his glove to disable Tony'southward armor. The heroes so unite to defeat the out-of-control Thor clone, Ragnarok, which is released when a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent detects the weapon and assumes that Cap is still planning to use information technology. The resulting goodwill convinces Captain America to help run the plan every bit he is the only one the heroes will trust with their cloak-and-dagger identities.
The stranger is revealed to be Uatu, World 616's Watcher. Upon learning of the possibility of this alternate reality, Tony is devastated and weeps for the vivid futurity he helped prevent.
In What If: Annihilation by David Hine and Mico Suayan, the cosmic Annihilation War reaches Earth during the War. The heroes unite to neutralize information technology, and many die in the first clashes. Helm America and Fe Man, after a last reconciliation, sacrifice themselves aslope Nova to deflect the full Annihilation Wave.[26]
Ceremonious War in Hole-and-corner Wars (2015) [edit]
The "Civil State of war" storyline is featured in the 2015 storyline "Underground Wars", a crossover storyline, which revisits previous Marvel Comics storylines in the form of isolated geographic locations on a planet called Battleworld. The "Civil State of war" area is referred to as the Warzone.[27]
In this story, the Stamford incident leads to a polarising political contend that culminates with the two sides clashing in the Negative Zone Prison. During the fight, Black Panther hacks into the prison house's computers and sees that the portal will explode, killing most of the combatants and stranding the residual. Black Panther assumes that Stark volition teleport his combatants out at the terminal minute, but meanwhile, Southward.H.I.E.L.D. managing director Maria Hill tells Stark that Black Panther activated the explosives on the orders of Steve Rogers. Deactivating the teleportation device, Blackness Panther tries to shut downward the bomb. Everyone in the prison rushes to escape through the power of the hero Cloak, who drops them all in midair over St. Louis. Unfortunately, Cloak tin can not shut off his powers fast enough to block out the explosion. The resulting axle of explosive energy creates a vast chasm called the Divide, destroying St. Louis and leaving millions dead.
The two sides regroup, with the Pro-Registration group taking control of the land to the east of St Louis, while the Anti-Registration grouping takes control of the country to the west. Each side blames the other for the deaths. The Eastward became "the Iron", run past Tony Stark, and The West became "The Blue", run past Helm America. Differences in politics have acquired people to choice i side over the other, with the carve up ossifying every yr. The only place in the country that embraces both is a community in the ruins of St. Louis, built on a bridge over the Divide. One of its inhabitants is Miriam Sharpe, a woman who lost her child at Stamford but who wants to bring peace.[ volume & result needed ]
Half dozen years subsequently the start of the conflict, Sharpe brings the two leaders together to discuss peace. At the meeting, Miriam is able to get the 2 men to open up. Stark explains that the Iron has wealth and resource from trade with the outside world where the Bluish is regarded as a rogue state. Still, his citizens are running out of space while the Blue has twice the infinite just half the population. He proposes that the Bluish shrink, giving his people more space in exchange for which Stark volition make trade concessions. General Rogers dismisses the offer, which leads to the showtime of an old fence between the two men. As Miriam Sharpe tries to intervene, she is shot in the back by a sniper. Reacting starting time, Full general Rogers calls Peter Parker to catch the shooter. Parker finds a remote-controlled sniper rifle. As Miriam dies, General Rogers realizes that from the angle of the shot that the shooter was most likely aiming at him. President Stark denies the shooter is one of his, but renewed civil war seemed inevitable.[28]
President Stark sends a drone to rail the killers, but information technology is shot down and its datacore claimed by the Blue. President Stark discovers certain anomalies regarding by events, leading him to believe that events like Sharpe's murder were caused by a third party. Meanwhile, Hank McCoy shows Rogers the results of "Project Bellcurve", a procedure capable of depowering superhumans. Numerous resources from the Iron are needed to continue the project, for which Rogers sends a team composed of Parker, Elektra, Azari, and Eagle (Clint Barton) to infiltrate Stark's territory. At the aforementioned time, Stark sends Jennifer Walters to infiltrate the Blueish and go on investigating Sharpe'due south murder.[29]
Spider-Human being'southward team suffers the commencement casualty when a Stark Lookout man kills Elektra. The team manages to overcome the rest of the defenses (including the reanimated corpse of the Kingpin controlled past Doc Octopus' tentacles) thanks to Venom, and return to the Blue with the components needed for "Project Bellcurve." At the same fourth dimension, She-Hulk had been able to infiltrate Steeltown. Nonetheless, Amanuensis Robbie Baldwin of the Punishers recognizes her and follows She-Hulk. She discovers the assassin was Bullseye. Baldwin attacks Jen as she is spying on Bullseye, and is forced to abscond. Before she can get out Steeltown, she is knocked out past an unidentified aggressor. She-Hulk awakes in an undisclosed location having been captured by Bullseye'southward client Blackness Panther.[30]
Equally the Blue prepare to invade the Iron in a last-ditch endeavour at ending the war, Atomic number 26 Human being tracks downward Jen's position and flies to rescue her. He finds her, but his armor is neutralized and stripped from him. Tony is brought to Black Panther who reveals himself every bit the Skrull Queen Veranke. Veranke tells him that she is the cause of every single failed attempt at reaching peace in a part of a plan to do good from the never-catastrophe war. Fe Man uses additional weaponry that was non in his armor to free himself, fend off the Skrull guards, and break She-Blob complimentary from her cage. Meanwhile, the Blue invade the Atomic number 26 while Full general America prepares to detonate a bomb derived from Project Bellcurve.[31]
Equally the disharmonize escalates, Iron Man is able to reach General America and reveal that Bucky is a Skrull, prompting General America to have a telepathic 'update' from Emma Frost that confirms that the Skrulls accept manipulated the conflict for years. Accepting their mutual responsibleness for the situation, Rogers and Stark cede themselves to detonate the Bellcurve bomb. The boom depowers the superhumans and reverts the Skrulls to their true state. A few months subsequently, a powerless Peter and Jennifer are shown discussing the tentative truce that has been formed between the ii sides, and wonder whether Stark and Rogers knew that peace would be the outcome of their sacrifice.[32]
Civil War II (2016) [edit]
A direct sequel to the original serial debuted in June 2016, written past Brian Michael Bendis and fatigued by David Marquez.[33] Unlike the previous story and the film, the disharmonize in this storyline is not about issues of government registration; instead, a new Inhuman, Ulysses, emerges with the power to see predictions about the future. This results in conflict emerging between heroes led by Iron Homo and Captain Marvel respectively, Stark favoring self-determination and concerned about the prospects of coming to depend on the visions while Danvers feels that his visions represent a potentially valuable nugget.
Reception [edit]
At the time of its release, Ceremonious War received mixed reviews. Comic Book Round Up gave the serial an average rating of 6.5. According to a scholarly analysis presented at the 2007 Comic-Con International, this story'south conflict is a natural outgrowth of what psychologist Erich Fromm called "the basic homo dilemma", the conflicting desires for both security and freedom, and "character motivations on both sides arise from positive human qualities because Fromm's image of human being nature is ultimately optimistic, holding that people on either side are struggling to observe what is best for all".[2] However, over time, Civil State of war has become more well received. IGN ranked it as ane of the greatest Comic Volume Events.[34]

In other media [edit]
Novels [edit]
Marvel adjusted Civil War into a prose hardcover novel in July 2012 every bit the first of a serial of iv novels adapting some of Marvel's most significant fictional events.[35] Information technology was written by Stuart Moore, the writer of Namor: The Showtime Mutant. The book expanded on the story and ready the events during Barack Obama's start term in part, rather than George W. Bush's last term; Tony Stark makes reference to the Affordable Care Act when speaking to Spider-Human in the first chapter of the novel.[35] The novel is set in the alternate timeline created past the controversial storyline "One More Day" and detailed in "One Moment in Time", every bit Spider-Man is depicted as never having married Mary Jane Watson, having never arrived on the twenty-four hour period of their wedding.[36] In the original comics version, Civil War was a atomic number 82-in to "One More Solar day", depicting May Parker'south assassination on the orders of Wilson Fisk almost the end of the main Civil State of war storyline.
Film [edit]
The 2016 moving-picture show Captain America: Civil State of war was a cinematic treatment of the story, albeit focusing more on the upshot of government control rather than public noesis of secret identities: these matters were also being escalated by the interference and manipulation of Helmut Zemo as his programme for revenge against the Avengers' role in Ultron'southward assault and the deaths of Zemo's family. The movie version of Civil War also differs from the comic substantially, former U.S Ground forces Full general Thaddeus Ross as the U.S Secretary of State is involved in the registration debacle instead of South.H.I.E.L.D and Maria Loma as the erstwhile was dismantled in Helm America: The Winter Soldier and the latter's whereabouts are unknown at that indicate or is presumably in hiding with Nick Fury, with the fate of Bucky Barnes becoming a key chemical element of the war after he is framed for the assassination of the Black Panther's father, the king of Wakanda. Every bit in the comics, Captain America and Fe Man are the respective leaders of the anti-registration and pro-registration sides of the conflicts, with Cap'southward side including the Falcon, Bucky, Ant-Man, Hawkeye, and the Red Witch, and Iron Man's side being Black Widow, War Motorcar, the Blackness Panther, Spider-Man and the Vision. Stark and Rogers reconcile afterwards realizing the truth of the king's assassination, but it is short lived as Zemo reveals Barnes' role in Stark's parents' deaths, and that Rogers kept the truth from him. An enraged Stark attacks both Rogers and Barnes, and the fight culminates with Rogers abandoning his shield and identity and escaping with Barnes, becoming a avoiding in the procedure. The moving-picture show concludes with Cap'south side seeking asylum in Wakanda after the Black Panther recognizes that he was incorrect to target Bucky. The latter is and then put in a cryogenetic sleep. Blackness Widow goes on the run after betraying Stark's side to help Rogers detect the instigator of their fight, and War machine is left crippled after injuries sustained in the final battle.
Later in the 2018 film Avengers: Infinity War it was revealed that Hawkeye and Ant-Man made deals with Ross to be placed in house arrest, so they could be with their families. The impact of the Ceremonious State of war is also heavily felt throughout the picture show equally the Avengers' disunity and Rogers and Stark still being on bad terms, left them vulnerable to Thanos' invasion and the Bleep.
Tv [edit]
A unlike variation of the Civil War storyline closely resembling Civil War II as it features Fe Man and Captain Marvel in opposition to each other was adapted in the four-function Season finale of Avengers: Ultron Revolution. In this version of the storyline, the Registration Act targets new Inhumans, and teams of Avengers come into conflict over the issue, as in other adaptations. It is revealed in Role 3, all the same, that the Inhuman Registration Act is really part of a program by Ultron (bearded as Truman Marsh) to begin the Ultron Revolution by manipulating humans and Inhumans into destroying each other, which is foiled by the combined efforts of the Avengers.
Video games [edit]
- The comic is adapted into Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2. While the storyline remains relatively faithful to the original comic, it takes a dissimilar path halfway through the game, as the act is briefly suspended for the heroes to deal with a crisis involving the nanite network used to control supervillains manifesting a form of sentience. In the game, the player gets to cull whether to side with Pro or Anti-Registration- with Captain America, Luke Cage and Iron Fist 'locked' into Anti-Registration and Fe Man, Mister Fantastic and Songbird in Pro-Registration- which affects the story's progression, characters they interact with, and the story's ending. Spider-Man and Wolverine are nevertheless playable on both sides.
- In Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, Iron Human being and Captain America reference the outcome if they are pitted against each other. The player too receives an achievement titled "Whose Side are You lot On?" if Fe Man defeats Helm America or vice versa in an online match.
- In Marvel: Contest of Champions, a special storyline featured elements of the Ceremonious War, as the credible death of the Collector causes Iron Man and Captain America to go divided over what action they should take with the Iso-Spheres that must be collected in the game. This storyline besides introduces a special player in the grade of the Ceremonious Warrior, who is identified as a version of Steve Rogers who witnessed so much death in the final battle of the Civil War that he adopted some of Tony Stark's armor and dedicated himself to preventing such a catastrophe ever again.
