"Can I refund this superpower?" (A.K.A. The Bruce Banner thread)

[traceur_]

Cyclop's power would be unbelievability annoying and expensive, if those glasses fell off while I was asleep I'd be carving up my house and the local area until I woke up.

Not unless you sleep with your eyes open.

I do sometimes.

For those of you that have seen the film 'Mystery Men', I would hate to have The Spleen's power.

I have, but the Spleen's isn't the worst. I pick the Invisible Boy's power. He can only turn invisible when nobody looks.

 

[Overlord Moo]

The obvious ones, Rogue, Batman, Superman.

Rogue: "Hi! I can never create offspring!"

Batman: "Hi! I'm a motivated emo billionare with geniuses doing all of my work for me! Also, my parents were killed right in front of me!"

Superman: "Hi! I'm a very human seeming alien who can pick up islands but I have the same reaction to an otherwise harmless green rock that humans have to the venom of the Brown Recluse! Also, I have almost no control! Watch me burn that house to the ground!"

Seriously, step away from the mythology and Superman is just a moronic concept.

That was funny

 

[Vortex Traveller]

Almost any power I could not control or turn off when I needed to.

 

[Lexodus]

Rogue's "I can't make physical contact with people without murdering them" mutant ability.

Probably this. Either that or the Blob. He has the power to be a fat guy.

An immovable fat guy. >_>

So... we have an immovable object. Now all we need is a unstoppable force to throw at it, and see what happens.

Super-Man?

A three-year-old with a tricycle (not an Awesome Trike of Death, but an ordinary tricycle) could kick the shit outta Superman.

 

[Axeli]

I second Daredevil. Basically, you're blind but so good hearing that it replaces your sight... So in essence you're pretty much like a normal person.

 

[Jamous]

This is stupid because no one here has any super powers to get rid of.

are you actually aware of what the word "hypothetical" means? because this is a hypothenical situation. its like saying what superpower is the worst, except in a fun colour filled format.

RAINBOW

ok, so i know that technically there are only six colours in a rain bow, but it is spelled w/ seven letters, damn.

Ummm.. Wrong. ROYGBIV. 7.

 

[ArcWinter]

Any comicbook superhero's power, really. Almost never useful, and you'd get arrested for using it at all due to the property destruction.

Everyone knows all the cool comics are on the internet anyway

Dark Knight?

Anyways, I think the power to control minds would be the greatest and yet most tempting power. With it, you could for the most part play God (depending on a couple factors, ie strength and range of powers, people with resistance to power, etc). You could force people to do whatever you wanted them to, do pretty much whatever you wanted to, and could destroy entire nations just by walking down the street.

 

[spuddyt]

Intangibility, a la Kitty Pryde from X-men. I'd probably end up at the Earth's core before I figured out how to turn it off, and by then I'd be completely unable to climb out and faced with the exciting options of starvation or becoming one with the lava.

Do you suppose that you could keep going untill you reach the other side?
Does gravity effect you if you are intangible?

Please say you didn't say that

I think cyclops' power would be bad, as you wouldn't be able to be born!
Unless you gave your mother a caeserian to get yourself out
(anyone who can correct me, please do, as I've always wondered how he was born...)

A lot of the mutants in X-men don't get their powers until they're in their teens. So... That's probably the simplest explanation.
