You are Zachary Rowsdower, Hollywood producer, and you've just been handed an account by MGM. Specifically, you've been handed a stack of comic books from Marvel and told they've optioned the rights to the whole of the catalog. Seeing as it's the Summer of '68 and the biggest superheroes are Batman and Superman, you can see why MGM wants in on the superhero business. Still, it's up to you to pick a movie to make and do some magic.

Which superhero should you pick first?
[]Spiderman: A teenager, Peter Parker would appeal well to the younger set, as well as setting a good example.

[]Iron Man: an ex-arms manufacturer, trying to do better but struggling with alcohol. Can you really make someone like that look good, considering Vietnam is ongoing?

[]Captain America: Punch some Nazis? Hell yes!

[]The Incredible Hulk: A scientist transformed by rage? It has possibilities.
 
Captain America ideas
Ok, so you're going with Captain America. Good choice, who can hate punching Nazis? But now you need a plot. It's time to brainstorm!

[]Tell the origin story and hit all the main points: sickly kid, experiment, faces the red skull, etc.
[]There's a character in Captain America called "The Hatemonger" who is behind all sorts of ugliness in the USA. Given the times, you might be able to make the controversy work for you if you focused a movie around this character.
