The Avengers movie had been getting a rave attention worldwide, in the Philippines alone; it had already broke local box office record making it the highest grossing film of all time. I believe it will also do the same in other countries, but before that happens we might as well learn more about the characters in the movie, going beyond there suits or public image.
Black Widow - Natasha Romanoff
A sex serine and highly trained spy working for S.H.I.E.L.D, an international peacekeeping organization. She has an extraordinary fighting skill, clever personality and swaying prowess like no other, but best of all, she works for the greater good. Weakness, she has no superpower unlike other members of the team.
Captain America - Steve Rogers
A World War II veteran who was enhanced to the peak of human physicality by an experimental serum. In the film, he is trying to come to terms with the modern world, where he was sent, decades after his time. Steve Rogers of course got the looks, enhance human ability and has the virtue of a true hero. Weakness, he’s also vulnerable being human.
Hawkeye - Clint Barton
A master archer and S.H.I.E.L.D. agent known as the "World's Greatest Marksman". Just like Black Widow, he possesses no superpowers, only a mastered skill of archery but unparalleled. It's a lonely character for Hawkeye, he's an outcast and his only connection is to Natasha whom was considered his critical right/left hand. They both need to coexist when it comes to a physical mission.
Hulk - Dr. Bruce Banner
A genius scientist who, because of exposure to gamma radiation, transforms into a monster when enraged or excited. In the film, he was impersonated as a being who people don’t want to mess around, danger is within him and invisibility as well. He won’t get hurt by gun shots or any form of firearms. Weakness, he continues to struggle with the two sides of his character, the dark and the light, and everything he does in his life is filtered through issues of control.
Iron Man - Tony Stark
A technology buff, self-described genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist with a mechanical suit of armor of his own invention. He had all the coolest gadgets in the world from thin touched tablets/phones to computer hologram screens, the hottest chick in town and all the money in the world. Who wouldn’t want to be Tony Starks? Weakness, he is purely human and depends a lot on his mechanical suit.
Nick Fury
The director of S.H.I.E.L.D., an international peacekeeping organization. He possesses a cunning leadership skill, fitting to lead superheroes. But as inciting as he is, he does not want to be mess around with, it’s like he has dark side in him but on the lighter note.
Maria Hill
A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who works closely with Jackson's Nick Fury. Being an agent, she also possesses a strong character with fighting skill, though not shown in the movie. She was touted also as a normal career woman balancing work and family life. Her greatest strength, a trusted confidant, while her weakness, she has no superpower unlike other members of the team.
Thor
The god of thunder based on the Norse deity. Being a god, he possess a supernatural personality; powerful, protector and commanding like he carries the world upon his shoulder. He is heroic yet autocratic. Weakness, he's constantly having to battle the greater good and what he should do vs. the fate of his little brother, who was the causing all the trouble.
So back to the title question, for me, being a geek, I’m more of a Tony Stark by 40% because I’m fun of having gadgets around me but I’m not as brilliant, as vile and as rich as he is. I’m also a 30% Steve Rogers being good looking (ahem!), plus the fact that I have a problem fitting to the modern times, not by character but by monetary resources and last but not the least, 30% Nick Fury having the dark side vulnerability of not wanting to be mess around.
So how about you, which Avenger character are you?
