what happened to doing all you can to save the world, you selfish bum 🙂

on a serious note, consider living 50 years

1/3 is spent on work and 1/3 is on sleep, so you are left with about 16 years in actual time

Well there's a certain lady in my life... and she's more important to me than being a hero...

I wouldn't do it if I only would get 3 years.

Not at all...

Its actually his personality as much as his powers...

And somebody as intelligent as him is hardly stupid... 😛

no no no, by agreeing to take superman's powers, you are reducing your life to 3 years

if you were only going to live 3 years either way, then who wouldn't want superman's powers

here there is a tradeoff between living for a brief period with the ability to do unimaginable feats versus living a much longer, albeit normal life

well i'll tell whoevre is offering to go shove it!

No I meant you like him because he's such a "do-good-have-no-personality" guy......

Intelligent? ......no..not really....not at all actually....with his powers all his eneies should be easy to beat if he was at least a little smart.....but he isn't.....this guy beat Doomsday and he loses against Toy Man...Misa...Riot.....all these other idiot villains...they suck so uch.....

Not at all... he has plenty of personality...

its not about intelligence, its about self control... he loses because by nature he's not an angry person, he has no sense of revenge or hate...

Yes....he hides it very good though.....another superpower?

No he loses cause he's t stupiud to remember that he is faster than a bullet...or stronger than ....stronger than....well stronger than Darkseid (What the ****ing **** was that all aboot anyways....)

Just think aboot what Batsy could do if he had Supes powers just for one day.....

ooookkkkaaaaaayyyy......I guess he is a professional.....he's just not very deep

Restraint yes...cause its better to get beat by a lame supervillain than break them a few bones (tats why Batsy is better again) ....there are good storylines once in a while...like if he fights Cyborg...or the one with the Tribunal or The Joker.....got that was great...Joker Superma...too funny.....

Yea you are right...he couldn't handle the perfect world he would have achieved after aboot 2 Minutes.......but how do you mean he couldn't "handle" it?

Erm... no.

Not deep to you...

He never crosses the line... simple as that... he doesnt do what he does through hate, he does it simply because he chooses to help those without his powers...

Perfect world? Batman would rule through fear... i think the power would corrupt him...

No because there would not be a point.

No not deep in general...that's absolute...not y opinion 😛

Ok, I guess he is a decent person...I don't want to read his comics though..no.,.nope...never

It wouldn't..hes Batman he can do everything........okay...I shouldn't spam the Supy Forum anymore....

I would so seriously kill half the planet.

I'm not even joking.

First, I kill india and china, then possibly russia and iran and most of africa.

I then take all the gold and from all the countries I blew up and make a massive ball, then go into space and throw it at mexico.

I'll take over the world, then find a woman so I'll have a son who will keep my empire alive, and so will do his son, and the son of his son, forever.

I'll get back to you if Bran-Bran tells me "sorry, I just don't like you" in which case I'll say yes and I'm sure DC would get plenty of inspiration of a otherworld storyline where Supes loses his mind because Lois would not marry him and oblitherates the Earth. Batman divises a kryptonian disease that will kill him in the next three years, but untill then with the help of Lex Luthor and many other familiar faces, they have to keep Superman from destroying everything.

I wouldnt want his powers if i only got to live for 3 years. I think that would be very selfish of me to choose to do that when i have so many people around me, who love me, who have invested so much time and effort in my life only for me to throw it away voluntarily just so i can play the hero for 3 years. No way. Theres things which matter so much more to me than delusions of grandeur. Things such as family and friends. I believe theres virtually no better way of creating a great legacy for you to be remembered by than starting a family. By having children and instilling in them morals, ethics and a sense of right and wrong. Being remembered and cherished by my family because i was there for them, because i cared and provided for them as they grew up into fine young adults is far more important to me than being remembered worldwide, by people who care not for me as a person, but for my celebrity.

Now if you said 20 years then id reconsider lol.

I wouldn't necessarily consider being Superman selfish, but, GS, overall I agree with you. I would very much have to consider the impact of my terminal uberhood on my loved ones, and one does not have to be super to do good in the world (as Supes himself said, in the end, the world didn't need a superman, just a brave one). Plus: 3 years sounds like a nice stretch of time when it's before you, but it goes really really really fast.

And ya know, as for legacy: heck, in a million years' time, everything and everyone considered historic now will be, at best, a mote of memory in some crystallized 11-dimensional brane (a fancy way of saying "generally irrelevant"😉. And for those who might consider a million years a long time, in cosmic history it's just another blink of an eye.
