How would you tweak, hack, take away from, or add onto Swords without Master to play a game of Fantastic Four, X-Men, or Avengers style comic book action?

I can think of a number of aesthetic tweaks I would make, just to keep a handle on tone and theme at the table. Glum and Jovial would be Iron and Gold (purely aesthetic, as I said), and I'd rename the phases a little (Rogue Phase is the Heroic Phase, for example). 

I can't imagine Morals or Mysteries needing any changes, as superhero comics are full of morals and mysteries as it is.

Share your ideas! SwoM is already a really decent engine for superheroics (as Tim Franzke's GotG idea basically indicates), but I'm curious what dials we could tweak to really focus the playstyle.
