Quicksilver (Pietro Django Maximoff) is a fictional character that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. Quicksilver is a mutant capable of moving and thinking at superhuman speeds. Originally capable of running at the speed of sound; exposure to the High Evolutionary's Isotope E made it possible for the character to run at supersonic speeds of up to Mach 5 and resist the effects of friction, reduced oxygen, and kinetic impact while moving at super-speeds. The character's speed allows him to perform feats such as create cyclone-strength winds; run up walls and cross bodies of water.

Quicksilver loses his powers of speed when his sister alters reality, but gains new powers courtesy of the Inhumans' Terrigen Mist. The mist gives Quicksilver the ability to displace himself out of mainstream time and space and "jump" into the future. The character can summon several time-displaced duplicates of himself and appear to teleport by "jumping" into the future and then returning to the present at a new location. By voluntarily embedding fragments of the Terrigan Crystals into his own body, the character could empower former mutants with extreme versions of their superhuman abilities. The effect, however, was usually fatal. The crystals are subsequently forced from the character's body by the mutant Rictor, leaving him without these abilities. Quicksilver inexplicably regains his mutant superspeed powers after having a series of hallucinations.

Hawkeye (Clint Barton), also known as Ronin and Goliath, is a fictional character that appears in the comic books published by Marvel Comics.

While Hawkeye has no superhuman powers (with the exception of the period when using Pym particles to become Goliath), he is a trained athlete and tactician, being at the very peak of human conditioning. He is a grandmaster marksman, having been trained by the criminal archer Trick Shot, and has been a highly trained acrobat and aerialist since his days in the circus. Hawkeye has been thoroughly trained by Captain America in tactics, martial arts, and hand-to-hand combat. Hawkeye excels in the use of weapons, especially the bow and arrow, and carries a quiver containing a number of customized "trick-arrows" that use sonics, gas, explosives, and flares, among others. In his new role as Ronin, Barton shows great proficiency with the katana and other melee weapons.

SCARLET WITCH

"SCARLET WITCH"

The Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff ) is a fictional character that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appears in X-Men #4 (Sep. 1963) and was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

Initially, the Scarlet Witch had the mutant ability to manipulate probability via her "hexes", which usually manifested physically as "hex spheres" or "hex bolts". Wanda has the ability to affect probability fields to cause an occurrence of various unlikely phenomena, including spontaneous combustion of flammable objects, rapid rust or decay of organic or inorganic materials, deflection of objects in flight, and disruption of energy transmissions or fields. These hexes were relatively short range and limited to line of sight. Casting a hex requires a gesture and concentration on her part, though the gestures are largely a focus for the concentration. Despite this precision, the hexes are not necessarily guaranteed to work, particularly if Wanda is tired or using her powers excessively. If overextended, Wanda's hexes can backfire, causing probability to work against her wishes or to undo previous hexes.

Doctor Strange also states to Beast that Wanda's one spell is of such complexity and strength that it has woven itself into reality and the world of magic itself, and that if he were to even to try to reverse it, all of reality would implode; the spell Wanda cast also affects even the alternate realities, strongly implying she was of sufficient power to permanently change the Multiverse itself, which is nearly unprecedented, even by cosmic entities. As the spell causing Decimation only affected mutant-based powers, not mystic-based ones, in all logic, Wanda is still perfectly capable of wielding magic, even if her mutant hex-powers have been removed. Wanda has recently shown herself to be capable of projecting her astral form for considerable periods of time and achieving flight, intangibility and even teleportation of many people over continents and oceans without apparent exertion or effort.

Before Anything Else

Are you planning to buy a new car? My Uncle James is actually planning to buy a new one and because of his excitement, he even bought some car accessories that he will be using in the near future for his car once he has it. My Dad advised him to take it easy because there are more important things to consider other than those car accessories just like car insurance. We have to admit that car is one of the properties that an individual could have that is very close into accident and losing such a property like your car is such devastating especially is the car is not insured. We told our him to look for an insurance company to help him out for this before it’s too late. He do not have to worry that much in looking for an insurance company especially now that there are sites that offer cheap auto insurance. So before investing money in decorating your car and making it more appealing, you have to make sure first that your car is insured. Apply online and get a cheap insurance quotes. Just make sure that you are dealing with a well-trusted insurance company.

THE INCREDIBLE HULK

THE INCREDIBLE HULK

The Hulk (popularly known as The Incredible Hulk) is a fictional character appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.The Hulk is cast as the emotional and impulsive alter ego of the withdrawn and reserved physicist Dr. Bruce Banner. The Hulk appears shortly after Banner is accidentally exposed to the blast of a test detonation of a gamma bomb he invented. Subsequently, Banner will involuntarily transform into the Hulk, depicted as a giant, raging, humanoid monster, leading to extreme complications in Banner's life. Lee said the Hulk's creation was inspired by a combination of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Frankenstein.Although the Hulk's coloration has varied throughout the character's publication history, the most consistent shade is green. As the Hulk, Banner is capable of significant feats of strength, which increases in direct proportion to the character's anger. As the character himself puts it, "The madder Hulk gets, the stronger Hulk gets!" Strong emotions such as anger, terror and grief are also triggers for forcing Banner's transformation into the Hulk. A common storyline is the pursuit of both Banner and the Hulk by the U.S. authorities, due to the destruction he causes.
The core of the Hulk, Bruce Banner has been portrayed differently by different writers, but common themes persist. Banner, a genius, is emotionally withdrawn in most fashions. Banner designed the gamma bomb which caused his affliction, and the ironic twist of his self-inflicted fate has been one of the most persistent common themes. The Hulk possesses the potential for limitless physical strength depending directly on his emotional state, particularly his anger. This has been reflected in the repeated comment "The madder Hulk gets, the stronger Hulk gets."His durability, healing, and endurance also increase in proportion to his temper. The Hulk is resistant to most forms of injury or damage. The extent varies between interpretations, but he has withstood the equivalent of core solar temperatures, nuclear explosions, and planet-splitting impacts. He has been shown to have both regenerative and adaptive healing abilities, including growing tissues to allow him to breathe underwater, surviving unprotected in space for extended periods (yet still eventually needing to breathe), and when injured, healing from most wounds within seconds.
His powerful legs allow him to leap into lower Earth orbit or across continents, and he has displayed sufficient superhuman speed to match Thor or the Sentry. He also has less commonly described powers, including abilities allowing him to "home in" to his place of origin in New Mexico, resist psychic control, grow stronger from radiation or dark magic, and to see and interact with astral forms.
As Bruce Banner, he is considered one of the greatest minds on Earth. He has developed expertise in the fields of biology, chemistry, engineering, and physiology, and holds a Ph.D. in nuclear physics. He possesses "a mind so brilliant it cannot be measured on any known intelligence test".

Valuing Your Car

Car is every man’s best friend. We used to take care of it as much as we take care of others. If women are addicted into shoes and bags, well, men like us are addicted into cars. I am not saying that we used to buy multiple cars just like the women do with their bags. We’re not collecting cars, perhaps we are from a royal family or a son of a multi-billionaire! What we do with our cars is decorating them. It’s just a matter of expressing our idea and creativity. The more creativity you input with your car, the more appealing it will be. However, decorating your car is not just all about colors and style; you should also pay attention to its durability. Adding car accessories is definitely the most exciting part in decorating because it’s like you are renovating your house and make it more attractive. Just like when you’re using a pickup truck, you can place stake pocket tie downs in your truck’s stake pockets. It is very convenient and stylish and provides a clean sleek look what it is not in use.
Speaking of pickup trucks, my Uncle has one and he used to decorate it by his own. Pickup trucks are so hard to maintain especially when it comes to cleaning. When it comes to cleaning, the hardest part would be the back part because it receives all the dirt and dust knowing that it is the only part that is being exposed. To get rid of this, the best way would be adding truck bed cap in your pickup truck. In this way, your car is protected from any dust and dirt. But if you want to make it modern and current, you better try using bak flip covers. It is so modern and is currently used by most pickup trucks nowadays.
