** ''Captain America'' is a Black Box. The only scientist who knew how to produce the [[Super Soldier]] Serum was assassinated, leaving [[No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup]] after exactly one test subject was treated with it: Steve Rogers. [[Arc Welding|Trying to replicate the success of the project spawned Nuke, Deadpool, Wolverine, Fantomex and at least ten others.]] |

*** In [[Ultimate Marvel]] and the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]], the serum itself was quickly replicated, but an army of Captain Americas is still impossible because the ''recipient'' is the key factor; In Ultimate, it only works on subjects with [[The Determinator|superhuman willpower]], keeping the successes at a minimum. In the MCU, it grants [[Personality Powers]], meaning unless the government is willing to stick needles in a card-carrying ''saint''(who would thus never perform deniable operations), all they would get is more [[Red Skull]]s. |

* [[Foolkiller]]'s "purification gun". Nobody knows how it works, who made it, or how Ross G. Everbest (the original Foolkiller) got it. A [[Disintegrator Ray]] the size of a pistol, it never seems to need recharging or any sort of fuel. This may have been intentional on the part of Steve Gerber, who designed the character. |
