I've asked the question a few times and in several cases I've got the same response back... Invincibility
As cool as it sounds I honestly think its the worst unless you have no soul think about it, living forever and losing everybody I couldn't deal with the mass loss and loneliness. I think i wanted to be invincible ages ago but actually Wolverine put it into perspective because eventually wouldn't you lose a purpose you'd run out of things to do, I sometimes sit at home with nothing and I would not like to carry that on forever... However when I die I'm going to miss things like films and new technology soo it would be nice to hang around. it's one of those powers that has its good points and bad points but I've taken the bad points into consideration.
But lets face it we've all thought about it so I decided to give you a run down on the 9 powers I would love to have.
9) super strength. The ability to lift things is a challenge for me because I'm puny and quite weak so lifting a car would just be amazing but what would your limit be, would you even have any? Could you lift a tank with 1 hand whilst balancing a battleship on your nose or would you dim it down to cars and bigger vehicles. Personally I would be in the centre as in I could pick cars up reasonably easily but if I put my full strength to use I could potentially lift a ship, I'm not bothered as long as it makes everyday life easier, James take out those bin bags, watch out their heavy!
pfft please.
I think strength is a power that everyone has thought about because its been shown differently everywhere which makes us think... I wish I could do that; perfect example, Hulk uses a police car to craft boxing gloves, how cool would that be running around with metal gloves that you can lift up with ease and use; Pretty awesome! and you could face off against any enemy because you can throw them across a football field however you could potentially kill someone so it's a power you would have to be careful with unless you face a foe with similar powers then go for it, do as much as you can but... it solves the problem of opening jars.
8) flight is an ability that is kinda forgotten I think, a lot of heroes can fly but their other abilities cloud the power of flight, just think about it. If your in a rush going to college don't get the bus take off and fly at super speeds, you could go anywhere in a short amount of time and sorry for turning "political" but it would be cheaper and better for the environment, you won't need a car, you won't need fuel so you won't need to spend anything. you could go to Australia for free and if your a particularly lazy person you could fly to the shops that are 2 minutes away from you. I would love to fly because its a quicker process than queuing up to get on a plane or something and if your going at superman's speed you could break the sound barrier and fly around the world even quicker and plus your in control of where you go which allows more freedom.
7) Major elements- this power is great because you get 5 for the price of one, fire, water, earth, air and lightning, this ability allows you to manipulate each of them which would be a fantastic weapon and it mixes a lot of superheroes into 1, so you could have more power than Thor, Human Torch and Iceman if you could combine them you would be unstoppable. my favourite would be lightning because like Mjolnir you could summon it on command and direct it; just imagine the possibilities with this ability. I'm not on about elements in Avatar where you have to do a silly dance to do it I'm talking raise a hand and fire comes out like the human torch, and I'm pretty sure this ability would allow you to cover yourself with the element, you could make a rock armour or like electro you could create an aura of electricity around your body which is awesome however like I mentioned before these abilities require a lot of control and I want to see a comic in which we see a hero struggle controlling his abilities at first because its not something you can do immediately, you would have to learn and they actually do this quite well in X-men first class.
6) Telekinesis- I was going to put Magnetism and then I thought why don't I put the ability that allows me to manipulate and control anything I want including metal objects... AWESOME! this has to be my most wanted power because you can control whatever you want and if you have enough power you could pick up structures far bigger than you like a building without touching it, the possibilities are endless and the immensity of it is amazing, you could stop bullets, lift up cars and if you watch the film "chronicle" I guarantee you will be itching for this power or even the x-men films with Jean Grey or Magneto who picks up the golden gate bridge. plus this power would come in handy in real lift situations, no more would you have to use your arm to open doors and no more would you have to reach for the remote control your mind would do it for you.
5) This ones a strange one because it has its pros and cons and that power is Time, you can stop time and rewind it to fix past events historically and personally. remember that time you fell on your ass in front of everybody no need to worry just rewind time so It doesn't happen or get revenge and stop time so you can humiliate them. stopping a bad even happening is god like but is it right? should someone be able to change our future, past and present some would argue no but have there been times where you think "why did I do that" you can go back and fix it to become a better person however I've always followed the ideology that mistakes form the person you are now so if you had this ability you wouldn't need to worry about consequences but you could test out certain out comes of a situation and pick the right one so again like most powers there are pro's and cons but I think this could be extremely useful but again more dangerous than any other power because the things you could change are endless and the result could be catastrophic, what would happen if you prevented a war? what would happen if you stopped yourself meeting someone. I guess its all down to how you use it, I personally would use it to alter a few things that I screwed up and see the past but I would try very hard not to change it because who knows what would happen.
4) Shapeshifting- Mystique has the ability to change her appearance and thats awesome but I'm talking about the ability to change form entirely to animals and things like that but on a personal note it would be great to hide true appearances or if your like me you could just run around town as a dragon, that would be pretty awesome but like I said you could hide yourself if your not happy with your appearance which sounds sad but you could do it or like mystique you could borrow certain qualities from some, in my case I would want to change my hair because I don't like it so I could shape my hair differently which would be great however going back to the main point I could turn into a dinosaur or another superhero and take their abilities however some wouldn't work like in X-men Mystique changes into wolverine but doesn't have his healing ability only his claws but its no big loss because I could also turn into a bird and fly away or another dragon depending on my mood. something that would be fun is taking someone's appearance and walking into them, that would be hilarious plus I'm sure you could make a bit of money out of it.
3) Superhuman agility- this would involved enhanced reflexes, endurance, stamina, balance and speed so you could run faster and for a longer amount of time than the average human not only this but you would be able to sense an incoming object and dodge it or if your awesome catch it. this would be very useful in a fight because you would be able to counter incoming blows and use your body a lot more to defend yourself like the Blackwidow does she takes the enemy down with insane moves that involve a lot of flexibility. I guess this power isn't the most important but it would be nice to have.
2) Adamantium/claws- this feature may not be a super power but I'm classing it as one just for today, Wolverine made adamantium very popular with his retractable claws that can slice through almost anything and his indestructible body that survived a nuclear bomb, imagine have a skeleton that could not break, that provided maximum security for your organs (mostly) however you wouldn't be that great because lets say you got shot, you wouldn't be able to heal unless you had the healing factor but saying that you would have claws really awesome claws that you can retract whenever but wolverine wouldn't be anything without his healing factor which brings us to number 2.
1) Healing factor- this is going to be strange because I said that I was against Invincibility however Wolverine has an amazing regenerative healing factor whereas some characters have a less powerful one allowing them to heal from gun wounds and ordinary injuries however that doesn't mean they can escape death, it just means they are slightly harder to kill like Thor, he's not invincible but he has a quick healing factor which makes him the perfect warrior. I would just like to get a paper cut and then watch the wound close, or watch bruises fade away but I guess its down to the person whether they want the best healing factor similar to Wolverines which allow them to escape diseases and practically live forever which sounds great but do you really want to live forever? I only want to be able to heal wounds not live forever, I'd hate that! but I'd love to have the ability to heal everyday injuries in seconds.
So yeah, please feel free to comment your favourites but this is my 9 they are all really awesome and all of them combined would make an indestructible force of nature. I hope you enjoyed reading sorry its a lot but there was loads to cover but I enjoyed doing it and surprisingly I was running out my my favourite powers, before I could think of loads but picking the best was a challenge and it took me a while mainly because of technical issues I was having with Blogger, I think they are fixed... I hope so because it was annoying.
well thanks for reading!
I reached 6000 views yesterday which is awesome so thank you very much!
Until next time!
