If i was a superhero... who would i want to be?
it is a question that has haunted me over the years and i believe right now i have the answer!
ok let's first list the possible candidates that i've considered before. of course there have been various superbeings with (literally) god-like abilities in comic books but such choices would've been boring
i've considered
longshot cos what's a better superpower than being super lucky? i could like beat badguys by some fluke like a tree falling on them or something and still earn a fortune at a casino.
then there was also the choice of lobo. he killed everyone on his planet as a science school project. then after wiping out his entire race, he gave himself an A. how cool is that?
but NONE of them compare to this guy.
deadpool.
list of abilities: Regenerative healing factor, superhuman strength, speed, endurance, and agility. Expert marksman and swordsman. Teleportation. Cursed Immortality by Thanos. Master martial artist and tactician. Instantaneous reflexes. "Comic Awareness"...
hold on a second... "comic awareness"? yep he has the superhuman ability to know that he is in a comic breaking down the "4th wall" and shit. he's also fallen in love with the female personification of death and is thus suicidal "so that he can be with his one true love" no doubt. this has of course incurred the wrath of jealous thanos who is also in love with death. thus thanos makes him immortal (wtf) as a curse, so that he can never meet death.
lol i just read this
'Deadpool was cursed for a short time by Loki, who had claimed to be his father; the curse made him look like Tom Cruise, rendered his face totally invulnerable, and his life to "fall to ruin." '
whoa that's mean... to be cursed to look like tom cruise. now i truly respect this guy.
oh wait i just clicked on a related link
doom patroltheir
list of abilities is just awesome.
Karma: Wayne Hawkins was a mutant born with a power to disrupt the mental processes of people attacking him so they could not touch him -- punches would miss in what seemed to be accidents, such as the attacker slipping or tripping. However, his power only protected him from attackers who had brains; a collapsing building or a stray bullet could still kill him.
Crazy Jane: Kay Challis is a former mental patient who suffers from dissociative identity disorder ("multiple personalities") stemming from severe physical and sexual abuse as a child. Due to the effects of the Gene Bomb (a major plot point originated from Invasion!'),
each of Jane's 64 personalities has its own unique superpower, some of which actually transform her physically.
Dorothy Spinner, an ape-faced girl with powerful "imaginary friends,"
The Brotherhood of Dada was an anarchistic group who fights against reality and reason. It featured members such as Sleepwalk, who can only use her tremendous powers when asleep (taking sleeping pills and listening to Barry Manilow before battles), and The Quiz, who literally has
"every superpower you hadn't thought of" and a pathological fear of dirt.
Danny the Street: (now Danny the World), he was created by Brendan McCarthy and named after drag queen Danny La Rue). Danny is
a sentient, transvestite boulevard, typically illustrated through the presence of
pink curtains on, for example, hardware stores or gun shops. Danny was the leftovers of an alternate dimension wiped out before he expanded to become a new world
