So here's the deal. You get to choose one character's powers from the comics, but you also have to suffer their tragedies, regardless of what happens. In example, Mr.Immortal's powers, but you also get that drawback. Wolverine's powers and all your women die, plus you're forced to appear in a gazillion books. So on.

Well the story isn't exciting if the tragic element isn't strong enough, especially for the superhero genre....is there a power that's worth the cost?

I'd go with Superman's.

Everyone's dead, but I don't remember it.

Cyclops.

Silver Surfer.
The cost is worth it.

Post the tragedy or fate.

It's not often as obvious as Cyclops' case, dating the universe's biggest whore.

you're just angry because she's above the age of consent.

Maybe Hulk, I'm constantly hounded by the gov't, my every woman I've ever been with is dead, I have 1 son who wants to kill me, 1 I don't know about(no child support at least), I have 1 family member who cares about me, my cousin who I infected with radiation poisoning, but is now a super powered lawyer. Also, my only friend is a guy who turns into a more powerful clone of my dead nemesis.

Or I could do the Colossus route, the love of my life is lost, maybe forever, my family is dead except for my sister, while my brother is trapped in another dimension. And I can never unlock my true power because my siblings and son(Peter Jr.) I don't know about would have to be dead first, because my grandpa, the mad Russian Grigori Rasputin made it that way.

Killing his Grandfather? Betrayed by his people? Evil Brother bent on killing you?

Sodam Yat

Superman
Yeah, he lost a planet he never lived on, and the people, but now he got the heart of his home planet back alive. He is an icon all over the universe.

I would kill my half brother, kill my granpa who tried to attack me and bang Earth chixx while giving the middle finger to my people.

And I would get drunk all days with Hercules.

Peters was by accident( he didn't know it was her) and Sue was under a spell at the time. Also note that both were relatively fine with no scars afterward but Wasp looked like a crack whore that just got beaten by her pimp.

Juggernaut seems like an ok choice (just gotta hope I dont go crazy from being buried in cement for so long)

if janet looked bad afterwards, that doesn't change the fact that hank was normal sized, and iirc, backhanded her. he's not exactly mike tyson.

Dad died recently, recently adopted son has disappeared, closest peer died recently, other peer died before that, has most intelligent person on the planet is hell bent on your death ... good times.

Superboy

Daredevil. Everyone dies, eyesight lost, and all you get is a radar...

He died once in fact.
He also took the scarring Emperor Joker did from Batman's mind into his own, because it would shatter a lesser man.
Most of his childhood and adult friends turned on him in one persona or the other, from Professor Hamilton, to Lex Luthor, even Lana did a bit back, Pete Ross.

the thing

ugly as shit, the few relationships he's had have ended because of his own insecurities about his looks or supervillian threats, constant pranks from johnny and the yancy street gang and can never beat the hulk without a powerup.

she was hot in boomerang.

Mad Jim Jaspers. My tragedy is that I'm insane, but if I'm insane, I won't mind

Spiderman.

Drawback is the Bugle writes lies about me. However I'm cool as **** so I don't care.

Dr. Manhattan!

I'm an omnipresent god and my only problems are I'm loosing touch with humanity because they are insignificant to me, its pissing my girlfriend off and it probably hurt getting ripped apart down to my molecules!

On the bright side it'd be pretty cool to be dark neon blue!

Zauriel, for sure

Definitely agree with Zauriel, he even harks back to concepts like falling from Grace and attractions to a prelapsarian state that is often found from classical texts like Milton's Paradise Lost.
