Voting off Superman cause he's boring, but I've come to really like Cap recently. His last two movies, both Avengers movies, and The Ultimates all made him look like kind of a lovable badass.
He's got the same kind of uber-paragon of virtue quality that Superman does, but his backstory is far more interesting, so rather than simply being an anachronism of pre-Vietnam America, his more three-dimensional character allows him to be actually inspiring in the way that superheroes should be.
I mean, man from the forties frozen in a block of ice and then dumped into our modern world that makes no sense to him, and yet he still stays true to himself. For better or worse...
