If you could pick any non-superpowered character to lead a group of superpowered characters, who would you choose?

I can hear all the DC fanatics screaming, “Batman” or “Nightwing.” All of the Marvel people are hollering, “Iron Man!” Well, I wouldn’t pick any of them. My character comes from a series that’s been out of print for a while now. I know I’ve mentioned the series multiple times on this here blog, but I can’t remember if I’ve mentioned the character yet or not, so forgive me if I’m repeating myself. The character I’m picking is from the CrossGen Comics series Negation, and the character’s name is Obregon Kaine.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the CrossGen universe, I’ll summarize:

The CrossGen universe is composed of many worlds, vastly different from each other. The only thing all of the worlds have in common is that all have at least one person/being, sometimes more, that is marked with something called a sigil. These sigils, which looks like the CrossGen logo, grant the person marked with them, Sigil-Bearers, various powers or abilities.

Negation is a large area of space within the CrossGen universe that is ruled by a godlike being named Charon, who decides he wants to conquer the rest of the worlds. Before doing that, he kidnaps a wide variety of people, Sigil-Bearers and normal people alike, and locks them up on a prison world, where his people experiment on the prisoners to find out their strengths and weaknesses. Obregon Kaine is one of those prisoners. A normal human, an ex-soldier, he rallys the rest of the prisoners around him, including those who have impressive powers, and leads them on a daring prison break. Even after they escaped, and were on the run from Negation forces, the Sigil-Bearers looked to him for leadership.

What about you? Which non-superpowered character would you choose to lead a group of superpowered characters?
