And hey, the world won't be short of assholes to kill, eh?

But part of that curse is that even by killing evil people, you're still committing a crime, which will put you directly in the crosshairs of law enforcement. You'd HAVE to end up killing good people (cops, SWAT, military, etc.) just to defend yourself - and remember, during the day you'll be powerless.

Are you sure that's what you want?

im sure i want my powers............

Out of curiousity, considering you'd have those powers in the real world, where nobody else has super-powers for you to absorb, what exactly is the appeal of Rogue's powers to you?

I could be stealthy enough to avoid cops.

I'm a vampire.

And night is the best thing anyway.

How many planets are there with over a million people, and how long does it take me to find them? I see it as kinda the same thing as the vampiric one with people, but on a larger scale. If I'm strapped for time every year so that I'm forced to eat good people, I say screw that. But if I just get to suck the souls out of a million demons or a Dick Cheney clone army, I have no problem with that. And the Power Cosmic kicks ass. AND there's no police force to chase after me... (I'm guessing I get to be Galactus level, but normal sized, right? I mean, if I end up being a jobber like Firelord, I'll take Flash anyway)

If I'd be eating a giant, tie dyed planets filled with psychadelic/good classic rock musicians, or if I'm turning into Firelord, I'd take the Flash powers. 1 second-25 minutes isn't terrible. (I think Flash should technically be something like 1 second=a couple thousand years) I'd just learn to talk really really really slow. And there is, of course, a HUGE number of other benefits that comes with being Flash...

Hmmmm maybe a planet filled with george bushes . Heck you'd be doing the universe a favour eating that.

We'll assume, just for fun, that there are lots of planets in the universe with a million or more sentient lifeforms. Of course, that means you'd have to keep moving.

But yeah, you get Galactus-level powers.

It's funny....despite the fact that it constitutes mass murder, I think more people would be capable of pushing a button and killing millions than running up on a single person and slitting their throat. It's the personalization factor - that's why I imagine more people would pick PC than Vampire powers.

You could try to avoid the cops. But a worldwide manhunt is no easy to avoid matter, especially if you have to spend the rest of human civilization avoiding them during the day and possibly fighting them off at night.

Nono, I mean that I am stealthy enough to make it so that cops never suspect me. I could make loads of money with my skills...live a rich life in some mansion or something for eternity. And just kill a guy once in month.

Power Cosmic. Teleporting and whatnot. It's like... a week out of every year, tops. For godly powers. And the chance to rid the multiverse of a Dick Cheney Clone army or 3.

Explain to me how in hell Rogue would be able to get close enough to Galactus to steal his powers without him first disintegrating her. And doesn't she have some kind of power cap?

Godly powers are only boring until you find time to exercise them. And I have to go find an evil planet and devour it evey year...

Is it acceptable to destroy evil, demi? If it came down to killing a million good people, I'd be much less for it. If it's like an evil, bloodthirsty demon cult-infested planet, I see no problem with eating their souls. Ever see Boondock Saints? Does anyone really end the movie hating the Saints? HELL NO. Vote mass murder, Galactus is the ultimate in true neutral.
