Footnote correction: Captain Australia does not carry a defensive spray, and is looking at the legalities of carrying a swiss army knife.
Be cautious around King’s Cross, that’s one of the toughest parts in the state.

Hello Citizen
I’ve been teaching jujitsu and judo for years, I’ve also learned karate, kungfu, ninjitsu, iaido and traditional boxing.
Your friend,
Captain Australia
Hi
I would like to know what the difference is between jujitsu and ninjitsu?
WOW!!! you have super speed when it comes to replying to comments!
what’s the one after ninjutsu? i don’t think i heard of it.

iado is the art of drawing a sword
Impressive feats of kindness. Carry on with your good work.
Looking into becoming a Real Life Super Hero. Have you ever had to defend yourself? Have you ever assisted in an arrest? Just curious! Hope to hear from you!
I’ve had some physical conflicts, but to-date nothing too serious. There hasn’t been any situation where I’ve had to hold someone until the police arrive (yet).
Crime fighting is about 1/3 of my mission, I also search for new ways to help people and inspire people to make the world a better place .. for the most part, crime fighting is a lot of foot patrols, and a lot of following up on leads.

keep our city safe im relying on you captain australia
I live in Melbourne. Do you know any superheroes in Melbourne?
Hello Citizen
I’ve had some contact from people interested to start up in Melbourne, but I’m unaware of anyone else serious and active anywhere in Australia.

Hi C.A.,
I really admire what you do and stand stand for, great job!! Keep it up.
I also have been working in a similar field, for approx 15yrs (minus the suit) lol.
Would like to talk/email to you one on one if you have the time email me.
Look forward to hearing from you,
Good luck and stay safe,
Greg
Hey, I think what you do is really cool. Giving up your time and risking your safety at night to help people.
I’ve got to know, do you read superhero comic books yourself or do you just like the idea of costumed vigilantism?
Hello JT
I’ve never been a big reader of comic books, actually. The idea just jumped right into my mind a couple of years ago, and I had to act on it.
It’s less about the uniform, and more about taking accountability for making the world a better place.
Your friend
Captain Australia
What ispired you to get started?
Actually, what inspired everything you do? your costume? your hunting ground?
ha ha your gonna stop crime. good one tubs.
i’ll call you the day i get attack by a giant pizza.
Let’s meet, and you can share your opinions with me face to face ?
CA
I’ll draw you a comic book =)
dude i was wondering if i could be ur sidekick
hey mate , i am a felllow Australian such as yourself. and i may not live in sydeny or wherever you work. but i am gratful of what you do
it would be awsome if you could have a sidekick, and if i lived local i would want to be your sidekick
lol CAP i love how when people abuse u verbually u turn it around on them, good job on killing the haters good luck in ur quest to find a sidekick soon enough ill be on the streets with you, and thats no word of a lie talk to u soon
Hey man, cool idea, but if your doing this vigilante thing, do you really need to look into legality issues with your armoury, also nightsticks are bad ass, and would probably make you well imposing therefore you would probably never have to use them, or some cool kido stuff?
Peace
SB
What have you actually done so far ??
Would u think about coming to New Zealand and helping Christchurch with all the looters over here, we need all the help that we can get
Hey CA,
since i could’nt contact you privately due to my hotmail account could u please read my reply on the guest comments.
Thank you for your time.
GOD SPEED CAPTAIN………..
KEEP SAFE………
hey me and my mates were thinking of helping you. but we live in geelong, do you think we should become superheroes?
G’day Captain Australia, mate you’r an inspiration to us all is there anyway i can donate money to your cause ? i want to help make a difference
Hello Mate
Thank you for the kind words, but I really can’t take money from anybody. If you want to use your money to make a difference, can I suggest sponsoring a child under the World Vision program ? I currently sponsor two kids in very poor countries around the world, after becoming aware that Price Waterhouse Coopers did a transparency study on WV confirming that more than 90% of your monies make it directly to the communities, there is very little money burnt in administration.
Money gives choices and power – I already have choices and power, so I’d suggest that you could direct your cash to folks who need it more ?
In any case it’s a very kind and noble question, thank you.
Your friend
Captain Australia
Thank you everybody for your comments and questions.
I have been absentee dealing with a major life event under my civilian alter ego, and haven’t been able to regularly reply here. I am very sorry – I don’t want to disclose too much detail for fear of compromising my secret identity, but I’ve basically been extremely busy with my newborn son.
For those who have made kind comments – thank you very much.
For those interested in becoming heroes in their community asking for my advice, maybe you could email me at [email protected] ?
There were a number of people posting hate, but regrettably I could not publish them as they included profanities and vulgarities, and I have concerns that kids may read the website. But for those with criticisms : thank you for your scrutiny and attacks, it makes me stronger and compels me to improve myself and refine my vision.

Hi, I would like to say my quotes i’ve made.
“The good and bad are just words but there is a difference between right and wrong”.
“One Life and once chance to live it”.
“When the rich wage war, it’s the poor that dies”.
I made these quotes and i have engraved those quotes on my shield.
Hello Captain Australia,
I am the New Zealand Nemesis, I stand for everything you stand against. I possess powers similar and comparable to those of your own. I’m in need of an Arch Rival. Therefore, from this day forth I shall be your nemesis and we shall battle til the end of time, or until one of us gets hurt.
Meet me on Death Mountain at sun down on the last day of the month, I hear Virgin Air have excellent one way rates this time of year.
You have thwarted my plans for the last time, you Doer of Good!
Aha! Another villain pledges himself to the destruction of Captain Australia. New Zealand Nemesis, I offer you an alliance.
You guys are so sad, can’t you see this man is trying to do something big? Today more so than ever before, people need heroes, people they can turn to. Things are getting out of hand and someone has to step in. Police are abusing their power, people are becoming restless, something must be done, and there are people out there willing to do it! You need to back off and take this stuff seriously!
Oooo pens and paper, Captain? You ARE serious, aren’t you? HA!
Hello captian aussie
i love your outlook on evil doers have fun and stay safe
Good on you mate!! I admire your outlook and the ability you have shown in following your ideas and putting them into practice!! we need more people like you around!!!

Hey, just wanted to say I love the site. Also, just out of curiosity, have you ever stopped any “real crime” ? I’m not taking a stab, I think what you’re doing is amazing, and has really inspired me. I’m just curious to know how bad it’s actually gotten for you at times?
