You're right. Okay, I replace Banshee with Erik O'Grady Ant-Man.

Myself.

If I was a super-hero/villain.

I would rock. I'd emulate Tony Stark and set up the "Thirty-Two County Initiative!" (Or Twenty-Six depending on the PC of Northern Ireland)

Hmmm... the Avengers version of Beast is pretty high up there, but the X-Men lion version sucked a lot of the fun out of the character.

I guess I'll go with Eric O'Grady.

Strictly speaking, the "Mc" prefix is more prevalent among the Scottish than the Irish. In any case, Hank's family probably emigrated to the US many generations ago, and has likely intermixed with several distinct European groups since. He's about as anything-American as I am.
