Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least for a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!”

wouldn't people suspect that the singing superhero and the superstar opera singer are the same person?

Not if the opera singer dude wore glasses and then... he took them off!

Brilliant!

:P


Personally, I like the teleport option, hands down over everything else.

I wouldnt have any use for weapon-powers like so many are suggesting. And neither do they.

Believe me, if I could raise an army of the dead, I would have plenty of uses for them!

I most humbly wish the powers to infect spam-mail-robots with a deadly virus, that also inflicts the programmer with a highly voltage whiplash over their fingers, leaving burned scars so common people can recognize these pests in public, if they dare go out . Dev

Sorry for the threadomancy, this post was too good to miss. Plus I have been away for too long.

I would take the powers of Superman. I know that sounds simple, but man it would be so cool to fly around and have people think you are the savior of man kind. Then I would turn into evil superman and start wiping out whole countries that annoy me.

if you guys could have any type of super power at all, what would it be? I don't mean "I wanna fly and have super strength and be invincible!" cuz thats pretty lame

That's alright, the original context of the post was to give me ideas for a book I'm currently writing but if Mal want's to be able to stop bullets with his eye balls then all the power to him :D

Lets ee an original superpower. First of all, I knew the rules. But I don't believe in rules. Secondly, most of you have listed powers that are almost God-like. There is no fun in that because it makes you all omnipotent. So, here are some powers I would love to have:

(1) To be able to tell when someone is lying.

(2) To be able to prove that someone is lying.

(3) To never forget anything I ever read, heard or said.

(4) THe pwoer ofd persuasion.

These would be great powers for me, as I am a lawyer.

pish posh - (lol don't i sound british :P )

what would one want powers that, for some people, come naturally?

If you could have one power, anything, anything at all, why wouldn't you choose something God like? there is only one reason i can think of:

Selfishness, the reason i say this is that you don't want the power to heal, to stop bullets with your mind or to blast bad guys into outter space with your nostrals, because you can't be bothered. helping others just doesn't fit in with your schedule :P

now, i could be barkin up the wrong tree (and i'm not implyin you're selfish, more defending everyone (including me lol) that posted the SUPER powers earlier) and maybe there are other reasons for not wanting God like abilitys, but selfishness popped into my head due to a film i watched about a guy that could heal any injury but he got fed up of people asking him for help (and that happened in spidey 2 aswell, he got fed up of his own life being screwed around with and so jacked the mask in for a bit lol).

i can sometimes tell when people are lying (not always, but often enough to say that i can lol) and it's easy enough to prove people are lying. and never forgetting anything could be a real pain. i mean people get nightmares about car crashes they're in or other traumatic events (that popped into my head as my cousin had one around a month ago and had troubled sleep for a few weeks after due to it). i like forgetting things lol. but hey, the name Lawyerman isn't taken yet :P

sorry for the epic post, but i like super heroes, so i thought what the hell lets go for it lol

That's sort of a point that I'm writting about, because if everybody is a God then really, is anybody a real God? Everyone would be of equal Godlyness and so nobody would be able to truly take advantage; if one guy wants to rule the world then two dosen other guys are right there to stop him.

Now the real question, what if their was one man left who didn't have these powers, would he be seen as a God by everyone else for being so different or would he let his own special 'gift' go to waste?

nah, course he wouldn't be a God like person. he'd either get killed (by a quick brain popping blast) or be specail because he was normal.

and everyone having super powers would mean that they wern't so much super powers, more just normal traits. you'd have those guys that can manipulate electricity doing your wiring and hydroman/men sorting out your plumbing.

Everyone would still be specail, or different. its just that if one guy can shoot lasers out his eyes he's a God, if 10 can then it's pretty phenominal, if 1000 can then its just specail lol, same as the guys who can fly and the ones that spit venom lol.

and besides, we wern't talking about being Gods, we were talking about super powers. and, to be honnest, the super heroes i like are often veiwed as menaces anyway (spidey, most X-men) and as such arn't seen as Gods.

to be honnest, in the realms of marvel and DC comics, there must be near 100 people with super powers, the normal "humies" still outnumber them massivly. and the bad guys outnumber the good guys in comics and stuff, good guys still nulify the bad guys advantage (i'm thinking more of super-villains as aposed to your petty thugs lol)

and, in the past 1 guy has wanted to rule the world, and loads of other guys have been right there to stop him. the only difference was they had armys backing them up lol.

:lol:

I don't know though, because he'd be the last true representative of what they used to be like, some might choose to protect him while others would want to get rid of all signs of their past.

Bit more than that I'd say, just check out the list of heros and villians on Marvel's site, theirs tonnes! Though you are right that humans still vastly out number them and I guess in a world like that they would be shunned as we tend to shun those who are different from ourselves, where as worship is more along the lines of that we don't understand the power or events were looking at.
