** According to WordOfGod, the story was originally going to end with the civilians that tackled Cap to give ''both'' sides a WhatTheHellHero talk. Realizing the conflict was pointless, both sides would enter a temporary truce to clean up the mess and the new status quo would've likely had Cap still at large leading the Secret Avengers. The plan was changed to what we got due to the apparent intervention of Creator/JossWhedon, who suggested that one side ''had'' to win after everything that had happened.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Mark Millar and Brian Hitch were working on a story for ''ComicBook/TheUltimates'' called ''Civil War''. Then Millar got the chance to write Marvel's crisis crossover of the year, so he declined that project, and adapted some of his ideas to the main comic book we have read. This pretty much explains the common criticism for the storyline that accused Millar of writing Ultimate Cap instead of 616 Cap.

* FlipFlopOfGod: Marvel's editorial staff refused to give any straight answers to exactly what the actual wording of the SuperhumanRegistrationAct was, claiming that it would be "too complicated" to understand. As a result, many of the details on how the law worked were effectively left up to the individual writers' interpretation. In addition, the lack of communication between said writers, made a mess of things in the different story-threads around the event, where there are often widely contradictory statements on what the Superhero Registration Act is actually supposed to do or say between almost every book.
