Captain Consumer
With his ability to be seemingly everywhere at once, it is rumored that there is no one person donning the black makeup of Captain Consumer. This is bad news for the bad guys. An army of costumed justice-dealers spells D-O-O-M for enemies of light. Collectively, Captain Consumer's voracious appetite for justice overwhelms evil in a swirling vortex of spending. Hurling every penny he has (and using credit extended to him by his good friend Lending Lad) this crusader for awesomeness purchases the ammunition he needs to fight evil.
Giant screen plasma TVs, new cars every year (he leases!), a five-bedroom home for he and his unemployed, childless wife, jet skis, boats, RVs -- these are the weapons in Captain Consumer's aresenal of justice.
