What are Uncle Sam's powers?
 * According to the DC encyclopdiea "Superstrength, invulnerability; can change size; powers are proportionate to the country's faith in the ideals of liberty and freedom." Elijya 08:13, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Man, they really piled it on with that last bit.--KrossTalk 10:15, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, the opposite also held, and he received a paper cut every time a smartphone EULA was accepted or a program was given microphone and camera permissions for no good reason. After around the billionth such incident, he was unable to walk, and was let go and replaced by a fleet of predator drones.  He died 3 months later of a staph infection that went septic while waiting for his medicaid application to process, having been unable to afford medical insurance as a result of his government pension fund being used to bail out multiple irresponsible banks.  The end. --A Shortfall Of Gravitas (talk) 08:09, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Was he portrayed with all of those in Quality Comics, or not until DC took him over? Postdlf 18:02, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
 * The depictions of his powers does tend to vary. I'll add a section detailing the powers he's been demonstrating in the post infinite crisis continuity.Kittynboi 00:59, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

not sure
In an alternate DC universe appearing in Superman/Batman, Uncle Sam becomes Green Lantern when Wonder Woman gives him Abin Sur's ring, as Hal Jordan was dead in this reality and wasn't able to take the power ring. I'm not sure about the Alternate dc universe wasn't that an alternative future that was avioded??--T-man... &quot;&quot;worst vandal ever&quot;&quot; 05:12, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * No, it was weird. People from an alternate future journied into the past and raised Batman and Superman to be overlords, thus creating an alternate present. Elijya 18:57, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I had the concept in mind but I expressed it wrong. wasn't that an alternative future that was avioded?? ment alternate present I only didn't think it through before writing. I and although I have it crystal clear in my mind now... My head still hurts. It's basically your Back to the Future II-villain-from-the-future-mess-with-past-therefore-alters-present plot. I got confused because of the term alternate DC Universe, which makes it look as if it were an Elseworld or an "Earth #". Maybe a currupted present, currupted present a la , currupted DC Universe present, or something like that.--T-man... &quot;&quot;worst vandal ever&quot;&quot; 03:45, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I think just "alternate universe" sums it up fine. Elijya 19:07, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
