actually from what 've been reading of Injustice God Amongs prequel comics, it will have nothing to do with Civil War
more like a King Superman dystopian future thingie
Yeah, I've kept up with the comic, and there is almost no chance of the registration issue. The latest story trailer, though, does seem to hint at some sort of civil war among the heroes for other reasons with Wonder Woman siding with Superman, at the very least.
But as for how I'd sort them?
Pro-Reg
- Lex Luthor
- Captain Atom
- John Stewart
- Flash
- Captain Marvel
- Zatanna
- Hawkman
- Aquaman
Anti-Reg
- Batman
- Green Arrow
- Hal Jordan
- Nightwing
- Red Robin
- Bane
- Wonder Woman
- Superboy
Neutral
- Martian Manhunter
- Superman
- Ra's Al Ghul
- Harvey Dent
All right, so now for my reasoning.
Pro-Reg
Luthor - I figure he'd be the one behind it all. In all likelihood, he's the one leading the charge and insisting that for mere mortals to be safe that the heroes have to register.
Captain Atom - He has served the military quite a bit, and his identity is already known. He also served under Luthor when Luthor was president.
John Stewart - He is a lantern that doesn't hide his identity and has a loyal military background. He does things by the book as best he can, and he would certainly side with the practical choice of registration. I figure that the lanterns would be split right down the middle with Guy and Stewart on the pro side, and Jordan and Rayner on the Anti.
Flash - Barry Allen would certainly be pro. As a former cop and probably the most publicly welcomed and celebrated hero, he would side with the people and support registration. If it were Wally, I'm not sure. I don't know the character nearly as well.
Captain Marvel and Zatanna - Hard to place, but would likely end up neutral. Granted their standing in the magic community, and their secret meetings with other magic users, they would certainly join the same side. I leaned on pro because in the Batman/Superman arc that became the Public Enemies animated movie, Marvel was working with Luthor against Batman and Superman. Zatanna also uses her real name and has no mask, and MANY people within the government know her identity. They may well choose to remain neutral from the fight to keep magic from the public, or embrace it and come out. But they'd be more pro than anti.
Hawkman - I'm not sure how he'd feel about it ideologically. But, again, he worked with Luthor in Public Enemies as well. I also know that he is politically the opposite of Green Arrow, who would be SUPER Anti. So I figure he'd probably fall on the pro-side. Compared to other heroes, he also doesn't have much to lose or worry about by going public.
Aquaman - He would likely play it neutral, but in his mind, I'm sure he'd be pro-registration. Seeing it as a KING, I think he'd be inclined to support the government and what they think is right.
Anti-Reg
Batman - I don't think this even needs to be justified. Clearly, he'd be the leader of the anti-registration movement.
Green Arrow - Right behind batman. They are very similar in their views and styles, and would certainly see this as a dangerous step by the government, and Ollie would additionally see it as a huge infringement of the Government's authority.
Hal Jordan - As mentioned, he has a huge problem with authority. I can see him standing on he anti-reg side on principle alone, as unlike Arrow and Batman, it doesn't keep him or loved ones safe by being anonymous (all of the corps and his enemies know who he is, and most know Carol is a star sapphire). So Hal would probably do it just because he's a stubborn opinionated ass. Kyle Rayner would do it to protect loved ones.
Nightwing and Red Robin - They'd obviously follow suit with Batman. As part of his army and ideologically similar, they'd follow their leader into battle. While both were a little more nonchalant about revealing their identities than batman, they still strive to be secretive. I figure the whole bat family would join in on this side. Definitely Red Hood, Catwoman, and Batwoman. Barbara Gordon may be conflicted.
Bane - No one really knows him, I don't see how villains would play anyway. He's an anonymous mercenary to most, and has no need to play a part unless he is paid to. But even then, he'd play to his advantage, and if he lied about his identity, no one would even know. Hell, BANE is basically who he is. There's not even a need to be secretive. But he'd likely side with the Bats if he had to choose.
Wonder Woman - Can swing either way. But she supports freedom and may see it as an infringement of rights.
Superboy - A reluctant fighter who may well be neutral. The public would have a hard time handling his identity and origin, and I figure he'd side with the titans. With his best friend being Red Robin and (I figure) Superman staying out of the fight, I think he'd opt for Anti.
Neutral
Martian Manhunter - I think it's obvious. He's a martian, it's not really his fight. At best, he's an ambassador to this world. He likes to stay out of Human affairs of this kind, anyway.
Superman - I figure he'd play the boy scout and see the merits to both sides. He'd try to stay neutral, and encourage as much peaceful resolution as possible. He would also not be inclined to fight any of his friends. If he was pushed and forced to intervene, though, I think that he'd go anti. While he has his own powerful morals, he will never do anything to compromise lois, and I see the whole ordeal starting with Luthor trying to find a way to hurt Superman. Supes would catch on, not want to jeopardize Lois or his family, and join the rest of the Trinity on the Anti-Side.
Ra's Al Ghul - Ra's is seldom even in America, and he would not be at all interested in the ordeal. He has bigger issues to worry about.
Harvey Dent - He'd play it however he best benefited. He'd have no place in fighting, but would capitalize on weaknesses in the underworld scene that may occur as a result of the battling.
