Pulled out a House pf M Spider-Man last Saturday and trying to figure the best strategy with him.

Just wondering if I'm guessing right: can I attach Pounce to him? He meets the requirements and that means - at first click - he could move of 9, attack with 12 and make *ouch* 5 clicks of damage beacuse of CCE?

What do you say?

Not quite.

Pounce:
Choose a character.

Give this character a power action; it moves up to its speed value and makes a close combat attack as a free action. After resolving this action, this character takes 1 pushing damage that ignores Willpower and team abilities.

Prerequisites:
Leap/Climb; damage value 1 or 2

Modified Combat Values:
Attack: +1
Damage (Standard figures only): +1

CCE is another power action so they cannot be used together. The best he could do would be 3 on his first click. Wouldn't be able to use Pounce on his second click (3 Damage)! And on his third he could deal 5 if he got a heavy object. Sorry to burst your bubble.

So there's a distinction between close combat action and close combat attack? Would figures like AW Captain America be able to use Exploit Weakness and Pounce?

Yes. No.

To further clarify, Exploit Weakness is a Close Combat Action. Pounce grants a free Close Combat Attack. Again, as was already said, there is a difference between "Action" and "Attack".
