what super heroes powers would you want. I would like to have Psychic Powers but more like JOhnny from the Dead Zone (touch people and see their secrets). That or maybe Iceman's power (ice creation-duh)I have an Iceman comic with what I thought was an awesome cover.
I already have a superpower, the same one as The Spleen character in Mystery Men. And you don't even have to pull my finger!
The power to freely wield and command electricity has been a dream of mine since I was a boy.
I also think having Reed Richards from the Fantastic 4's ability to stretch himself would totally kick ass!
It would work well with the women I take to bed with me.
Hehe!

Look at the bendable skyrocket!
I always thought Daredevil's ability to hear heartbeats jump when people lied was the shiznit - I'd like to have that, every salesperson at my job probably has their pulses jumping all day long!
I don't know why this question is directed at superHERO powers... I'd prefer Magneto's power myself. Yep, that's right. Magneto... the superVILLAIN. And hell, since everyone here seems to be using their powers for good, I guess I'd use mine for evil. You've all got to fight somebody. :)
Good, Bad as long as you have the power!
"what power?..the power of the babe..."
Not to veer WAY off course here, but I wanted to clear this up.
I haven't seen the movie in such a long time, so I'm not sure... but is that a "Labyrinth" reference, Fearless Freep?
Dance, Magic, Dance!
"You remind me of the babe."
"What babe?"
"The babe with the power."
"What power?"
"The power of voodoo."
"Who do?"
"You do."
"Do what?"
"Remind me of the babe."
Me and my little brother had fun saying this over and over. It's funnier if the person asking the questions slowly gets more exasperated and angry as the conversation progresses.
Anyway, my favorite superhero power was one of the villains of the Brotherhood of Dada from Grant Morrison's genius Doom Patrol. The Quiz. She had every superpower you haven't thought of.
As for superpowers I wished I had, I've always been keen on a super sense of smell. Just imagine how much information you could extract out of everday environments if you could smell things so minutely. I know it sounds lame, but it would be incredibly useful.
Speed like the Flash. Versatile, you can go so fast you're invisible, ect.
i wish i had the punishers power of makeing asses out of people with powers. he actually beat wolverine daredevil spider man and the hulk at the same time. thats got count for something.

I think it would be awesome to have Storms powers. You would never have to worry about a vacation getting rained out, or you r house getting blown away in a storm.
I've always hated Punisher for that reason. I find it hard to believe he could mop the floor with ANY superhero... especially when the odds are stacked against him.
The power to fly. No more getting stuck in traffic jams, or dealing with airlines. Not to mention that it'd be awesome on dates.
I would like the whole Wolverine/Sabretooth package. General strength/enhanced senses/speedy healing tune up on my current carcass. I'm not likely to take on any SUPER villains, so this would serve my everyday needs nicely.
The claws could come in handy too around the house too *snikt*.

A super sense of smell could have some serious drawbacks though, somethings it is good not to be able to smell.
I would have Wolverines powers, the healing and lack of aging would be cool, and, being a diminutive young woman, I would feel a lot safer if I knew I had those claws to stick into any bastard who tried to attacked me.
I think the best super "power" would be Superman's invulenrability to anything other than Kryptonite. If you're going to get in fights with bad guys, what else do you need? Sure, it's not really an active power, but it would give you the freedom to just walk right up and subdue them with whatever method you prefer.
I've allways wanted Ghost Rider's Pennance stare. That would be so awesome to make someone feel what they make otehrs feel. Especially when they run you down just because you were trying to stop their car because they ran over a cone and was dragging i down the street. Sorry a little personal issue I had.)
Now live with it!
I don't know, JohnL....if your invulnerable, but no stronger then any one else, the bad guy could just knock you down, tie you up with duct tape, and laugh as he dumps your butt in a trash compactor, just to see it break.
Kitty Pryde's power (which conveniently extends to her skin-tight costumes) to pass through things is the one for me. If I had that power, I could sneak into any building I liked and take whatever I wanted. Since I'm a good capitalist, however, I wouldn't use it to rob banks or steal jewelry, however; I'd use it to swipe incriminating documents and other sensitive materials from politicians and political activists and sell them to their enemies.
(And if the victim in question was someone I REALLY didn't like, I'd give the stuff away for free! "Here, Cheney: it's Michael Moore in flagrante delicto with Chirac!")
Why stick with a single power, when a combination of them would be FAR more effecient? ;)
Supermans invulnerability, Hulk´s Strength, Wolvereens Healing, Batman´s Intelligence, Jokers creativity, Jean Jones ability to "Phase", Flash´s Speed, Storm´s Control over Wheater and Magneto´s Control over magnetic fields...
Now THAT would make one damn cool character! ;)
I think I would also stick with supermans strength. I would think that he would be stronger than hulk.
Bheliom : I believe they call that "God Mode."
Hummm....if your invulnerable, why would you need healing power, anyhoo?
I believe they call that "God Mode."
Or Rogue, after a fun night
What´s bad about godmode? :D
/me Opens Real Life Console
/me types set cheats enabled 1
/me types god
system message: god mode on
*tehehe*
;)
Okay, just kidding ;)
If i was too choose a single hero´s power i would definatly go with superman´s powers... since his powers are quite all-embracing! ;)
ooooh. Superman vs. The Hulk.
I'd side with Superman, but it would be close. The Hulk wouldn't worry about hurting anyone else while Superman would.
I would want to be able to see into the future. I'd make a killing at the local horse track.
