* GoodIsNotNice: Deconstructed. He's a petty, bullying, anti-intellectual, womanizing smug jerk. He also saves the city from super-villains on a regular basis, but only for the PR, and is completely unconscientious about the safety of its citizens, judging from his "save" of Penny. He also clearly doesn't believe in ThouShaltNotKill, considering he ''throws a car at Dr. Horrible's head'' and prepares to actually execute the doctor in public with his own Death Ray.

Added DiffLines:
* ThouShaltNotKill: Averted, which brings home how un-heroic he really is. While he seems to be content with just beating up Dr. Horrible, he's also not restrained with potentially lethal force - he ''throws a car at Dr. Horrible's head'', may have been planning to choke him to death during the heist (though this is unclear, especially since Hammer lets him go when Penny enters the picture), and prepares to actually execute the doctor in public with his own Death Ray. It's unclear whether Captain Hammer deliberately leaves his nemesis alive or is just too inept and/or a showboat to properly finish the job before Dr. Horrible slips away. When he finally ''does'' make a genuine attempt to kill Dr. Horrible, it backfires on him spectacularly.
