If you could choose a super power...

Thread Starter 
I've been thinking about this subject again myself, I'm considering trying my hand at writing my own superhero story to either comic or animate.

So I want to know, if you could by some nuclear or magical happenstance, have a superpower or two, what would you want?
I figure the why to it would be obvious enough to us here.

Personally as sweet as it would be to have super strength, I'd have to go with Camouflage (think cuttlefish type) and flight, cause yeah.

Lets keep it at 2 so as to not go crazy with it, for now at least.
So now, what superpowers would you choose?

Gravity manipulation pretty much covers all the powers I'd want (flight, levitation, telekinesis, super-strength) in one nifty package if you ask me, and I'll add teleportation.

Oooh, Gravity Manipulation sounds fun.
Kay, well I'd replace regular old flight with that.
Still want the camouflage though.

I want teleportation and the ability to create a protective field complete with oxygen around myself. The first is kind of a no-brainer, the second is so I could travel beyond Earth, and protect myself from teleporting into solid objects.

Looney Tunes style ability to reach behind the back and pull out anything you need at the moment.

Classic, if a bit trite, and no vunerability to yellow.

The ability to add and subject duplicate body parts to and from any other part of my body at will.

The possibilities are endless. Fancy turning your head into a big ball of eyes? No problem. Need to get down a hill fast? Just add a hundred extra arms and roll down like a ball. Need to punch someone frustratingly out of reach? Have an extra arm and fist project from your open palm. For all other situations you can just sprout penises from every spare inch of your body. My god, what a life it would be.

This was my answer in a similar thread a while ago, but I'd absolutely go with being blue, naked and bearing a penis. I'm Dr. Manhattan, who the hell is gonna have the balls to tell me anything?

Yeah, I thought about putting it there, but I wasn't sure, so Werewolf Girl suggested I just put it here.
Any moderators are welcome to move it in there if they want.

There was this old syndicated TV show in the late 80s or very early 90s, called OUT OF THIS WORLD. Chick named Evie was an alien and was able to freeze time by touching the tips of her index fingers together, then unfreeze it by putting her palms together. If, while time was frozen, she wanted a cohort, all she had to do was touch them and they'd unfreeze while everything else stayed put.

I want that.

Really?

"While proper grammar usage is all well and good, a Grammar Nazi cavils even insignificant errors in English to somehow win an argument. Of course, rather than being genuinely persuasive in an argument, pointing out English errors is a weak attack only on the typist's credibility and never has any bearing on the underlying premises and assertions therein.

By the way you're..... "sooper powder" wood basically make you a rapist....

I hope I spelled all those words correctly....

I have to choose invisibility, I would get totally creepy with it and sneak around people's houses to see what they do when they're alone.

It's probably best for the world that I don't have that power.
