If you answered mostly A, you’re: Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.)Volatile and a teeny bit (okay, a lot!) self-obsessed, you don’t always play well with others – but given the chance, you’re a great mate. You are, by your own admission, a genius (humble, much?) – but you’re also loaded, so you can pretty much afford to be as arrogant as you like! But, don’t tell anyone… a lot of your bravado is for show. You’re really a softy at heart!

If you answered mostly B, you’re: Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson)Seductive, smart and sassy, you are the Ying to everyone else’s Yang. Popular and always invited to the right parties, you fit in easily in any scenario. But you’re more than just good looks and a killer wardrobe – you’re smart, incredibly self-motivated and always looking to improve yourself, and you know that what’s in the inside is what really matters.

If you answered mostly C, you’re: Captain America (Chris Evans)Big-headed, a little pig-headed even, macho, cheeky, bordering on the cocky, you’ve also got quite a troubled side. Not surprising really, after what you’ve been through! You often feel like a bit of a loner, that the world around you doesn’t understand the real you, but given the chance – and with the right person – you can let yourself go and reveal the real you.

If you answered mostly D, you’re:
Hulk (Mark Ruffalo)You’re a mass of contradictions and often misunderstood. You can go from sweet and sensitive to angry and thoughtless in the flick of a switch, but then that’s part of the attraction, right? People are on the edge of their seats when you’re around, which can be quite fun (if a little dangerous when you get in one of your moods!) But most importantly, you’re a smart cookie, and people should always remember that!
