Title: SUPER Powers
Post by: Acid on November 28, 2008, 04:59:16 PM
Everbody knows super powers. Green Lantern can materialize things, Spider-Man is a pest, Super Man is super and Dr. Manhattan is broken.
So RPM, what's your favorite super power from comics/cartoons/manga/anime?

Wolverine's combo: high-speed healing factor + Adamantium-reinforced skeleton. Gotta love being nigh-immortal and immune to most human defects and weaknesses. :P

My favorite superpower ever has always been and will always be Super Speed, ala The Flash.  Sure, flight is cool and all, but there's something about running close to the Speed of Light which I love.  Plus, my theory was also that if someone could move that fast, like say run around the globe in a second, how could you stop him?  His punches, due to SCIENCE, would contain so much mass that they'd be almost as strong as Superman's, when going at that speed.

This scene helps to illustrate that point. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53OyPYa7SEI)

Wouldn't that crush his own hand too?

It would, but the friction caused by super speed would burn you alive. Super powers don't follow normal physics.

High-Speed Aura protects against such things!   8D

The Green Lantern Ring I consider more of a Weapon than an actually Superpower, so in terms of Weapon-Based Superpowers, it would be my favorite.

Some other honorable mentions for Superpowers are Magnetism, Aquakinesis, and Invulnerability

I personally like elemental based super powers. Like being able to control/become fire/lightning/earth/whatever.

I was always a fan of super-strength and morphing abilities. Oh, the things you could do with either..
Title: Re: SUPER Powers
Post by: Protoman Blues on November 28, 2008, 08:04:29 PM
Morphing would be so much fun, I agree. 
Title: Re: SUPER Powers
Post by: King Reaper on November 28, 2008, 08:25:23 PM
Ghost Rider's Pennance Stare is one of my personal favorites. It's more or less the ultimate good-guy power: Turn all of somebody's past evils against them.
I've also always liked the idea of various mental abilities such as telekinesis mind reading, or putting your own thoughts into other people's heads.

Also, the Thing is one of my favorite heroes. Not sure if his super strength and stamina stem from him being composed of rock(or whatever it is), or if it's an actual super power. Whatever the case, I'd like to be able to do what the Thing does.

Nightmare Inspector, Hiruko: Can go into people's nightmares to help them get over them and eats them afterwords.  He can't eat anything other than nightmares and the more bloody the nightmare the tasteier it is.

PhD Sang: Is able to use magic, talk too some mythical animals, and change her gender and strength of her magic depending on how many rings she takes off (she has like 5).  If she takes off 2-3 or more she loses her memory.

I perfer Super intellegence (Batman) over Super Strength (Hulk). Besides, who adores having the ability to build a mecha out of scraps in litterally 10 seconds by a man with no enigneering prowess?

@Tails: Time Travel, I wonder which hero who has that ability..?

Well, she's powerful enough to warrant a spot in Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom.
And hey, I couldn't lift a bucket of water that big.

Or maybe Onslaught's one weakness is a robotic loli.

Oh, the irony, considering Magneto has complete control over metals.

Anyway, maybe some good ol' teleportation. That's always fun. I'd like to zip around anywhere, anytime.

Time Control:

1. Freeze time
2. Speed self up
3. Steal or develop necessary technology
4. Reverse time on self to eliminate aging
5. ????
6. PROFIT!

I agree with Ares. Teleportation is best way of moving around (other than super speed) and is a great method of fighting. I would also like Telekinesis. Ability to talk through mind powers, read their minds, or control minds. What better way to fight a person without lifting a finger?
Title: Re: SUPER Powers
Post by: Pyro on November 29, 2008, 06:38:08 AM
Superspeed would be my first choice but since that's taken I'd go for the transmutation powers of Element Lad of the Legion of Superheroes, or Firestorm the Nuclear Man who also has fusion blasts, intangibility, and flight.

Wouldn't mind having gravity powers, telekinesis, or invisibility either.
Title: Re: SUPER Powers
Post by: Rockmon on November 29, 2008, 07:37:33 AM
in no particular order, the powers the I'd really like to have are,
1)the ability to speed my mind and body up relative to time. I.E. 1 hour for me is 1 second for everything else.
2)static shock's powers, particularly the human cd player one and and the human radio one.
3)magneto nuff' said.
4)the ability to create skin tight force fields that protected me from extreme temperatures and from getting wet during rain.

this, but called "Time flow speed control", because it sounds better. Add an unaging, self-regenerating body and we're good to go. Anything else one may need will eventually be solved with SCIENCE.

I'd be good with Spider-powers. Ten tons worth of strength (Well, fifteen if I get turned into a giant Spider and back into a man. And twenty if a crazy life sucker kills me when I'm already dying), being able to detect where danger is coming from, crawling on objects for some stealth, a uber equilibrium, and super endurance? It was always the super power jackpot to me.

Yes please.  :D

While not a comic char, my Mutants and Masterminds character's Space Manipulation abilities.

But in all honesty, I'd want Franklin Richards power.  Just because [tornado fang]ing with reality it's self would be VERY fun.

I want the power of extreme laziness, or the ability to control time.

That way, I can have as much time as I want to be lazy before I have to do work that I would do lazily until stopping time again to be lazy some more.
