Super Powers Ruined by Science

[TheyCallMeBruce]

Personally, I want the ability to turn into a giant bullet proof elephant. Like if I'm waiting in line for too long, I'll just turn into an elephant and trample everyone, and gangs with guns can't kill me.

In other news, a large elephant died of a knife wound in a confrontation that developed near a frozen yogurt stand.

Here's another vote for telekinesis. I've long felt that the ability to move objects with my mind would be the ultimate. Although I'd be pretty disappointed if I ended up with super lame telekinesis like James Hydric.

I'd want to be able to do more than slightly shift a perfectly balanced pencil or turn one page in the phonebook from 6 inches away. And only if there isn't any static electricity nearby. Yeah I'd be pretty choked up if I had that kind of telekinesis.

That must be some other elephant, because I don't like yogurt.

That's what made you angry.

I think Mystique has the best super power of all. To become somebody else is better than being invisible and naked. Now if only i could fly too...

I hate to break it to you guys, but science doesnt exist anymore.

Its been shattered by a penis enlargement drug. I heard it on the radio. Penis enlargement and Fox News have 'literally' shattered science.

Ergo, science exists no longer. We'll miss you science. Well, some of us anyways. Not me. I always thought science was overrated and scientists were self-important, self-absorbed and overly pompous jerks.

Good riddance. Whats science done for us anyways?

who says you have to be naked? I can transfer my invisibility to other objects...including my clothes

[Frequitude]

I'd easily choose the ability to fly.

its not a have to thing - i'd prefer to be.

[Coach]

fair enough

That list is complete and utter BS. I guarantee that every single comic book character that has those powers have had ALL vulnerabilities dealt with at some time or another. Think of how anal most comic book nerds are. You think they'd let giant loopholes exist without letter writing campaigns, petitions, suicide bombings etc.?

Hmmm. How did you handle it, Flip?

Although I read a lot of comics, stuff like that doesn't really bother me. Now Retcon bothers me but that is a whole other discussion.
