We're all tired of the same powers over and over again. Flight is almost the only way anyone gets around nowadays. I'd like to see a more unique way of getting from A to B. As well as we'd all like to see certain powers out there. Like for example:

Quantom Skip control:
Essentially, someone with this power could make the same second happen an unlimited amount of times. So, they launch the same punch a thousand times on someone, without actually expending the energy of a thousand punches. By using the same power, they could take the same step a million times and reach a far away place without actually expending much energy.

so you could punch someone for an hour and not get tired so it would work the same way a super stamina

Indeed. I think its a very cool power.

Sounds like the Flash to me ....

Ah, but not quite. You see, the Flash has near unlimited speed. A quantom skipper can simply repeat the same action a number of times. Its a power which has to be used inovatvly, and it doesn't make the user as unbeatable as Flash. Its a power which is more interesting because it offers little defence wise, meaning the character with the power has to use their wits.

With the quantom skip control the character could then slow down or completely stop a persons motion by making him repeat the same position a million times. Still sounds like flash.

It actually sounds more like Zoom than Flash.

Actually it is a pretty cool power from a story point of view. The Flash is multi-dimensional in his speed abilities: he can do a lot of different things. But "skipping" is very specific. It means, if you are gonna repeat a particular moment, ask why. What do you hope to gain? What might be unintended consequences? It means you have to ask the same questions that you would of a character who could go back in time and maybe change things.

This woulda been a good Twilight Zone episode.
"Submitted for your approval..."

I'd like to see the powers break down the 4th wall. Our "real" world needs some super-powered excitement.

She-Hulk has broken the 4th wall many times

and Deadpool

Nono...not characters breaking the 4th wall. Powers. I've been reading enough comics that I feel like I should have freaking laser vision or something.

a friend of mine had a job interview the other day and, instead of the regular questions, she was asked:

"which superpower would you like....... to help with your customer service?"

I think i would have had to answer:

"Laser eye beams/Death Ray"

How would this help in my customer service you ask? ..... who's gonna complain to a guy who can vaporise you with a glance!

I'd like to see Cable either have all of his so callled " potential " or none at all. That'd be a concept I could handle. I'm tired of the inbetween God-like status.

I think that quantam blahblahblah is kinda one sided, cuz if the guy gets off one hit, its over no matter what, cuz if I hit hulk a billion times without him growing in strength, I'm gonna win that fight, despite the obvious differences...
I had an idea a few years back about a guy who would actually touch an element-fire, water, earth...- and gain a certain ability from it, fire would give him a short burst of Humantorch power, ice, Iceman, earth, maybe he'd become like Terra, etc... I think it could make for a pretty fun storyline and good power-to-intelligence ratio... what do y'all think?

I'd like to see the Silver Surfer in psychotherapy, so he can break through the mental barrier which causes him to tumble from the sky every time his board is knocked out from under his feet.

Therapist: "With all your powers, why do you feel you need a board to fly?"
Surfer: "I do not know. I just...I just feel so naked without it..."

lol that is a good idea...
how about a guy who can cause edges to become more sharp. That may not make much sense, I'll clarify if necessary...

Let's see who the first person is, to come up with a power no one has used yet. Come on; let's get cracking!

I actually created a power for a mutant in my Comic strip for highschool, that I've never seen before, but it might have been used.

It's basically the power to control time with in his hands. By that I mean whatever he touches ages, or de-ages. It becomes older or younger. So if he touched someone they would become an old man or even die depending on how long he touched them. Or if he touched someone they could become a little baby. It was such a plot device for me because if someone died, he could touch them and make their body "de-age" to the point they were alive.

I actually had a good back story for him as well. He kept his sisters and friends eternally youthful. He would de-age them whenever they grew old. Because he himself was immortal.

If you want to hear some original powers, you should read the Xanth books. They have people who can make dots or point to anything they want to no matter how far away.

Those sound useless but enough tiny dots can make entire illusions and being able to point at anything means you can triangulate the location of whatever you need.

There's also a character that can make any idea come true but the idea has to be from someone who doesn't know her power.

I'd like to see a monkey eye/hand blast.... instead of heat or concussive force, angry primates shoot towards your enemy.... they have fairly decent intelligence, Gorilla strength, nimble monkey agility, massive ape teeth, prehensile tails and the ability to make and use simple tools and weapons... you can control them to do your bidding and when you're finished with them they turn to energy and return to your body

the maximum number of Monkey-Apes (Monkapes) you can produce is 50 (until a later story line increases your ability to make monkeys to unknown levels)

No-one can control your monkeys except you (not telepaths or animal specialised people or anyone.... because they aren't natural Monkey-Apes)

Oh yeah.... they can be of varying sizes depending on the task at hand.... if they get killed they, again, turn to energy and return to your body

Yo'd also get the ability to control/influence other monkeys in the immediate area ..... later evolving into an Aquaman type primate telepathy when people get bored of him (like that would ever happen...I'M TALKING ABOUT MONKEYS HERE PEOPLE)

Superhero name - Monkey Master! ..... (Master of Monkeys)



I just wanted to write "Monkey" a lot..... but it turned into a fairly cool power

coke

You all fear the might of Monkey Master!

I came up with a few original powers .

Energy re-route

The power works like this , you can move the energy from your leg's to your arms allowing you to lift/punch harder , or drain the speed from your beating heart to your leg's allowing you to move as fast or faster-then your hearts beat , another usage would be in defense.

A guy with class 2 strength tries to punch you , you block with your arms, normally a basic humans arms would snap under that pressure . But you've just re-routed the defensive qualities of your femurs into your arms allowing you too just take the blow with only a few bruises.

Of course the downside to this power is that it drains the natural resources of your body at that point . So let's use the above statement , you've drained the thick layers of bone that make up your femur to thicken your arms defensively . Your leg's are now so weak that a well aimed baseball could break them in two .

What I'd Really like to see is a snail mail or email, from either DC or Marvel, saying, "We love ! Please call us so we can arrange a meeting to discuss bringing him/her into our universe."

i have new power u have lots of speacial nerves in body u get hit in one part like arm then your leg comes up and kicks enemy what do u think

if dont like it well what do u want for 10 secs litsrully

I've got two words for you .... Hyper Space !!!!!!!!

Quantum vision ..... Choosing quantum states of particles
Quatum tunneling i.e. all particles in your body sudenly tunnel in any direction necesssery
Nano tech weapons instead of energy blasts
Hyper space cutting i.e. using wormholes to 'cut' reality

Im not telling you any more, as they will all feature in my Up cumming comic in 2030 !

totally the most awesome power is no power at all!!!

Ummm i think you're in the wrong medium !!!!!!!!!

How about a guy that has ten powers (the basic ones - flight, strength, speed, invulnerability, eye blast, invisibility, telepathy, telekinesis, precognition, intangibility)..... but he only has one power at any one time.... and it changes randomly depending on emotional state ..... and the same situation is never guaranteed to result in the same power manifesting

???

he would be one jumpy super-hero.... middle of a fight his super strength turns to flight.... but he doesn't know about it until he punches the bad guy and breaks his wrist

he would have to learn to conrol his emotions.... so that his powers didn't flip on him when he needed them....

meh.....

maybe a code word could change them instead of emotions... Like how Cap marvel shouts SHAZAM

he could just keep saying it till the power he wants manifests
