Stepping into his San Diego Comic-Con panel in sparkly stilettoes, the Torchwood star flaunted his red, white and blue cape before revealing the Avengers costume beneath.

Naturally, he gave the audience a look at his star-spangled behind, before holding his shield high and declaring: “I am Captina Americana!”

So far, so Barrowman. But then he told a story about how marijuana makes him paranoid and obsessively stroke cats like a Bond villain…

…made a meat-based double entendre…

...and serenaded the audience with a rendition of A Thousand Years…

And after, he scooted away (still-stilettoed)…

....before looking pensive with a Star Wars book.
