Yes, the Hulk's strength and durability increase when you're angry is going to help you become a multi-millionare. Until you wreck your million dollar mansion and have to pay for the repairs, that is.

Does Apoc`s power come with immortality?

It comes with the ability to impress any girl you've ever wanted to, ever. That should be enough.

still you'll be blue, man...🙁

With longshot's power, whether you reshape the world or just drown in hedonism is all just a matter of time. It would be faster if the power comes without its limitations though. does it?

It's limited in scope just as Longshot's powers are. You couldn't actively effect all probabilities in a Scarlet Witch manner, but you could, say, make a killing in Las Vegas when shooting craps, have very good luck with women, be in the military and always seem to escape death, have ATMs malfunction and give you hundreds of dollars, pull a bank robbery at the same time as a tanker explosion and blackout that distracts the attention of the authorities, etc.

You get his regeneration which is part of his molecular manipulation, so in a way, yes, you'd be immortal assuming you weren't absent minded and did something that could kill you if you weren't using your powers (like, for example, drowning because you didn't think to morph an oxygen supply, gills, or some other means of survival underwater, or burning to death because you didn't morph your body into something that wouldn't burn).

Oh then we're good, I'd take that power. longshot has some other issues, he can't use his powers in selfish or 'negative' ways, they backfire on him.

What about natural aging?

You'd naturally age, but you could just alter your appearance to warden off the visible effects, plus you have regeneration.

That's fine. I'll practice very hard.

Yep, but doing if forever is better 😎

Apoc`s shapeshift/regen/immortality power ftw.

Photon`s Cosmic awareness 2nd

MM`s Telepathy 3rd

BTW. Does Firestorm's matter manipulation include the ability to transmutate, i.e. Lead to gold etc?

I personally would hate being immortal if I can't share that ability with my friends and family the gift would soon become a curse.

Firelord or GL

most likely firelord cause my knowledge about chemistry is pretty good and I could transmute geat amounts of sand into nutrient for the 3rd world, make myself rich by transmuting anything into gold or diamonds or turn large amaunts of CO2 back into coal/oil to keep the circle going.

I have a question to the GL ring, the ring is said to do the thinking for the holder. I mean if I theoraticly imagine a particle accelerator I don't have to know how the whole thing works I just wanna have it and the ring does the rest would that rule apply here too? And I guess the ring can only create "real life" machines/constructs so I can't just imagine a machine that would turn sand or stones into nutrient like I could do it with the matter manip powers right?

You get any matter manip applications that Firestorm has shown able to do on panel, assuming that you yourself know the mechanisms necessary to perform the feat.

You only get the ability to create constructs, so the ring's AI won't be helping you and it falls on your own imagination. You can create machinery that you can picture in your mind, and it will work assuming you know the schematics, or you can create inanimate objects or animal/people constructs. It's all based on your own knowledge.

Shadowcat.

I would chose Shaman Nate powers with the mind of the mad titan... 😮‍💨

Northstar's speed for me. GL constructs would be neat also but eh

I gotta go with the martian manhunters telepathy
for the most fun while I'm alive... Cause shitttttt I could screw with peoples heads... Even the superman levels...$12000 concubines? I get mine free...

And was apoc a super aged guy when his suit was stripped from him during the twelve... Can you imagine having that shriveled body for eternity? (I honestly thought he switched bodies with other people or something...

But superman would be my second choice... In the end he be the longest lived... You just have to worry about scientists wanting to dissect u... And being only strong and durable... Possibly getting captured and tortured for all time

in a real-world setting, Henshaw or Martian Manhunter or longshot would enable me to accumulate the most coin.

Apoc/shadowcat would be the playboy/voyeur dream scenario.

The other powers have the real-world potential of turning you into a Dr. Manhattan in the sense that you'd be sequestered to a special living "facility" by the government, used as their pawn/implied threat in international politics, etc.

Surfer might be appealing but you'd have to be a real loner to take his power. I would love to see what natural wonders the universe has to offer but it would be on my own...and I'd likely see things that are beyond the human mind's ability to comprehend...not sure if that's something i'd want to experience.

I can't imagine a single way how that's possible when you can literally turn everyone trying to do so into salt.
