| Realistically, what superhero power would you want if you could have ANY, one that ISN'T going to become an every day bane of your existence after the initial fun wears off? I feel that its probably not all that it cracks up to be - this being a superhero lark!! |

| Telekinesis or Magneto's power to control magnetism doesn't seem like something that would ever get old. Teleporttation, flight, or at least the ability to lesp long distances (like the Hulk) would seem pretty convenient as well. |

| i can see the advantages of being as quick as flash but i think you'd quickly feel very guilty for all the times something happened that you saw but didn't act on. A child falling over, an accident that could have easily been avoided with intervention. Its hard to find a superpower that would benefit yourself whilst not making you feel obligated to help others. Maybe having a superpower would make you a better person and it wouldn't feel like an obligation.... I think telekinesis could (over time) end up with you being a very lazy, lethargic person who can't be arsed to lift a finger! Again, teleportation the same. Why walk to the shops etc when you can teleport. In a 'real world' situation, i think most superpowers are hampered in one way or another. Would jumping like hulk or flying really be that great? |

| I would take Wolverine’s healing ability. Be nice to never get sick and age much more slowly. | ||

| @michaelekrupp the not getting sick id agree with, ageing slowly.. not so much. I think id rather pop my clogs rather than see all my loved ones die around me cos I'm ageing so much slower than they are. Not getting sick is a very good call though! |

| have you been in crowded airports, holy cow, its insane sometimes! and expensive sometimes. plus, being able to swing by my brothers house in vegas or on a beach in florida on my lunch break at work would be awesome. since I was a kid, ive always though it would be pretty cool to fly. @nikki666666, how about you, what super power would you want? | ||

Instead of going to the airport, going through security and waiting around you could just take off and go where you want, when you want. It would be like having your own helicopter with free gas without the storage issues. Also, you don't have to go by yourself, you could always carry someone. |

I would choose the ability to fly. The freedom of the skies and being capable of visiting any place on the planet at my convenience. Just strap on a GoPro and start my own YouTube vlogging channel. Also, it would be a real blast chasing after UFO's.  |

@drchaos - you get it man.  to just not hear other people standing in the gigantic security line, griping and whining about the gigantic line like it gets smaller the more they complain and throw a fit. and I bet those are the same folks in the 10 mile long traffic jam honking their horns like it speeds things up. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Pre_Coder Bingo. Flight, all the way. Screw superhero-ing, I just want to enjoy the pleasure of flight without the anchor of a machine or device that limits the full experience. Speed would be cool, but I see problems for the speedster when needing to interact with 'normal' people. Having the mental endurance to be able to react at speeds described in comics and film must make dealing with everyday people seem like talking to the sloth in Zootopia while he's sleeping. |

Quote:Originally Posted by conditionfreak I imagine you mean through the acquisition of info, or similar. The drawback I see for invisibility is that 'you' can still be tracked by other means, assuming someone is looking for 'you'. A guard dog would detect 'you' as you waited for the room to clear out (for example). I've always felt that SOME forms of invisibility (such as the illusion type) would still cast a shadow. |
