Mutants/super heroes in real life.
Imagine someone like iron man responding to a crime or some fire breathing human/dragon mutant rampaging through the city. Now a friend of mine at work likes to talk about how he thinks the government does things or how they will respond to said situation. He's a really smart guy and not some crazy lunatic trying to spread the word of the corrupt U.S government and trying to tear it down kinda person.
Anyway I brought up heroes on day before lunch and he said the government would straight up kill these people.(Assuming they could) On top of that of course they would also censor/erase all the media of such events and try to contain it. Without being too logical about this, what do you guys think?

Re: Mutants/super heroes in real life.
Agreed. Beings of unchecked power would be a threat to national security in their eyes. Also you get the issue of international politics. Are they independent agents, or are the heroes enlisted in military service a la captain atom? But then you get a super power arms race for metahumans and the like.

If I had to say, it'd be like Civil war but darker. but without the infighting. And also, Xmen storyline sums it up ok, as well.

Why don't you give me an answer for both independent agents and enlisted military services?

Re: Mutants/super heroes in real life.
Independent: Hunted by national/international government for vigilante justice. cover up likely
Government: you see hero and metahuman soldiers in war, arms race builds, then world war with metahumans across the globe.

Re: Mutants/super heroes in real life.
I also believe that the outcomes of this would be one of either two possibilities....
1). The metahumans become the majority after a while, and a world where this stuff becomes not only normal but common would emerge.
or...
2). Humans in their infinite wisdom will probably blow up everything up once it looks bad for them....
and just to say it...cause he makes sense in this role....
3). "President" Trump would become a Norman Osbourne-esque (during dark reign) figure, and he would build the "Titanium Trump Wall", sending the metahumans over it to show his superiority. (I'd say he's Doctor Doom, but that implies he "could" be a good ruler, since doom achieved way more.)

Re: Mutants/super heroes in real life.
Yeah, see, a world of super meta-humans and all that...would only end badly for everyone involved.
There would be no "special hero team!" or anything like that. just villains, and people trying to hide what they are, and the worlds governments and populations would hate and fear both of them.

Re: Mutants/super heroes in real life.
Thing about meta-humans, is that people always assume it will follow the X-Men trope, of the metahumans only really appearing in the 20th century / present day, alongside current governmental structures.
But if metahumans were an offshoot of humans, logically, they would have been around throughout all of human history.
If metahumans were a thing, we'd still be in the middle ages. Those guys would totally own the warrior aristocracy... and humans have enough of a tendency towards feudal hierarchy as it is; if the nobility had laser eyes as well as all the cash, we wouldn't have a chance of overthrowing them. Game of Thrones is fun and all, but not if you're the smallfolk.

Re: Mutants/super heroes in real life.
I will point out that the reason why mutants are hated in Marvel is cause of a sentient bacteria that lives in every human being that makes them hate mutants cause mutants are immune to it and it sees them as a threat
Useless info I know, but like...I kinda like the take of superhuman society that Boku No hero academia does. Everyone kinda has some sort of power, and they were fast in developing rules and stuff that people have to follow. Also superheroes like get paid and stuff and are treated like celebrities.

I like the world "Gamma" paints for this.
