So, say your opponent has out either The Captain or any character who has been Carrying The Torch'd into let's say The Hulk. Flip TES and then name Hulk and... those characters loose all their powers, etc.? or only one's associated with the name Hulk?

As far as I can see TES would just null any effects on those cards because they have those names, however I figured it would be better to pose the question incase someone has more insight with the multi-named then I do. If anything I would say The Captain is the most tricky with this as he gains names as part of a power.
Important difference: "with that name" vs "with the same name". "With that name" just means "has, as one of its properties, the name Hulk". "With the same name" would mean "with the exact same SET of names, no more and no less".
Elektra uses the looser wording, so yes, calling Hulk would hit that Captain.
fair enough, I suppose my only follow up question is as to whether or not The Captain would loose the other names as part of loosing his powers, then regain his powers having lost the name that made him loose his powers and... oh no I've gone cross-eyed.
Actually, I'm assuming that seeing as The Captain's power giving him the name had already resolved at the time of which he would have lost said power, he would retain the additional names.
