Ten million bucks, a new identity, and a first-class ticket outta this washed-up country? Not to mention bein' a celebrity for a year. I've already sold my life rights. My agent said they'd be worth a little more if I goosed the body count up a bit before I went "legit." But with that taken care of... (with style, I might add) ...I've got only one question... where do we sign?

Synopsis for "Non-Human-Americans"
With the Super-Human Registration Act in full effect, Beverly Switzler talks Howard the Duck into registering themselves (with Bev as his sidekick) so that they can take advantage of the benefits of signing up (like a steady paycheck and benefits.) Initially signing up at the DMV in error, they get into the Super-Human Registration line up, however when trying to sign up, a local S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent recognizes Howard as the human duck that has been reported time and time again.
Forever fed up with having to do write ups about the human-duck and furious that they have all turned out to be true, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent tells Howard that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s official policy is that he does not exist and kicks him out of the SHRA office. Disappointed that he couldn't register, Howard looks on the bright side, since he doesn't exist in the eyes of the government, at least he doesn't have to worry about traffic tickets, have no worries about jury duty, doesn't have to file his taxes, heck he doesn't even have to vote if he doesn't want to.
