Fighting the Tyranny of Man Some unwinnable wars are worth dying for, some lost causes are worth fighting for, and if this is true justice will prevail. The Superhuman Registration Act is a consequence of Nitro’s actions, which killed the New Warriors and young children; this is unfortunate, but it does not mean all superhumans, super heroes and super villains, should suffer and be discriminated against, due to the actions of a select few.
