JAGS
This system used to be better know but since its been moribund a while I think folks should hear a few words about it.
The creator Marco calls this Just Another Game System and while the name has a waggish sense of humor about it, its really not.
This is a generic system with easy to learn rules, several interesting setting including the amazing JAGS Wonderland Setting. I won't spoil it for you but its simply the most unique RPG take on that classic on the market.
I'd describe it as a bit like GURPS but less complex. Not hard to learn and character creation is pretty simple.
It also has one of my favorite "toolkit" products Fast Company which is a solid coherent framework that lets you play action movie heroes ranging like The Watchmen, Kick-Ass, Remo Williams, Max Payne Rambo, Bat Man, John McClane and more . That tool kit even has its own setting The Fall of New York which is fun and likable
