I'll confess no experience with Action 2: Exploits. My main concern was with the core rules do with your prospects of being hit by a bus or what an explosive shockwave does to a neighborhood full of innocent bystanders. I'm sure you can contour the rules to Marvelize GURPS but at some point of the sculpting I think there's value in seeing if mechanics designed t the task might suit the game better.
