Thread "What would you do with super powers?" in forum "Comic Talk and General Discussion *"

What, no flying? I guess teleportation could cover the travel aspect, but I've always wanted to be able to ride the wind currents and go zipping around city streets.

Edit: Ah, that's what I get for reading a quote instead of the OP. Still, flyin' y'all.

I suppose fire powers would be awesome, too, and with enough manipulation I could probably become airborne with them.

They probably wouldn't like me too much in California, though. :<

I need to make 5 more posts so I can get the 100 posts trophy so I'm giving myself some more superpowers

The power to play with someone's thoughts. The power to become Chuck Norris. The power to sing like Jigglypuff. The power to be awesome. The power to light things on fire whenever I want to. The power to be my enemy. The power to have powers. The power to be a cartoon character…

Dang I ran out of ideas for powers…

I would want the power to blow peoples minds with my awesomeness. I wouldn't need a costume cause whatever I wear would be my costume. I wouldn't be good or evil cause my awesomeness would bring both world peace and world wide destruction and death.

I would have
The power of
The Truth

So when people get into
An argument or something,
I can just point at them
And be all like

"BAM! TRUTH RAY"

And they would
Suddenly know
The truth

And if they
Can't handle The Truth
Their heads explode

And my name would be
"The Truth" also

My super powers are my two magical guns given to me by the Magical, Ageless Rock Star, David Bowie, after I saved his life from the hordes of screaming fangirls. They can turn into any non-lethal gun, rendering them completely harmless, unless I throw them at you, or pummel you with them. Then they might hurt.
My costume is an epic pinstripe suit and fedora with a lone ranger mask.
I am a hero, because David Bowie's powers should be used for the betterment of society.(No Venture Brothers Jokes. Although I love that show.)

My superhero name is "Ginger the Kid" due to my all-natural ginger hair.

You want a term paper, cheap? That happens to one of my real super powers as "The Narrator"

Wear a suit, stand around, describe and explain everything with superb powers of observation. It's great being the outsider explaining everyone else's lives especially when you can wear the slim cut suit, smoke the cigarette and end every paragraph with "… in the Twilight Zone."

And look as if you're in severe, constant pain…

Super-smarts, easy. I'd use them to make a billion dollars, then spend it all on preparations for the inevitable zombie invasion caused by some jackass whose contagious super healing ability goes horribly wrong.

Haha, that's the best one I've heard thus far

My favorite would be to manipulate and transform matter to energy and energy to matter from molecular sizes up to macroscopic sizes. Including being able to turn myself into an energy being. The comic character that suits this most is Dr. Manhattan from the watchmen.

If I had to chose from the list I'd select electricity or telekinesis. depends on how you define the electricity ability. If electricity means to be a powerful dynamo able to throw sparks, I'll take telekinesis. If electricity means to controll electric flows in a wide range, I'll take that.

I would stop the huge flying battleship that is coming to destroy my city.

Posted at 8:11AM, Nov. 19, 2009

What would I do?

Posted at 8:11AM, Nov. 20, 2009

I'd take the powers of the HULK… and conquer the world!

JAKE SMASH!!!

Posted at 3:11AM, Nov. 23, 2009

Telekinesis or agility. Both of those can be used in everyday situations that I have and in the end become quite handy.

If there was the option to, I would pick flight, hands down.

What a great topic. Timeless and one I (among others I suspect) think far too much about. I'd totally be the good vigilante type. I have a wife and kid and they, as well as my neighborhood, needs to be protected from the gangs that are moving in. Real life, I've gone out at night with my huge black dog, listening to them signal to each other with whistles and vibrating with the urge to go hunting. But I can't leave my kid alone in bed while my wife's off working the graveyard shift. I'm pretty big (6' 5", 260 lbs) and when I take my dog for a walk the little f**kers part like the red sea when I walk through them. I'm not scared of them for myself but I fear them for my wife and kid. I'd take invulnerability. I'd let them kick my ass for a while. Hell, I'd let them plug me full of lead. Then I'd just keep coming and kick their asses until they weep openly. I already know they're cowards. Also, I'd dress in something post-modern hero fashion like a noir hero (mask, long coat, combat boots etc). I'd never kill anyone. I don't want to take someone's son/bother/friend away. That's just not me. Sorry to take so much time to rant but atleast I'm on topic!
