You are a hero

Let's say if you were given a chance to not only become a hero but you can grant yourself any ability you want.

1. What name would you give yourself for your SINGLE ability (can only grant yourself one power)?
2. You have to provide a pro and a con (a way to overcome said ability) for your new power.
3. The ability you choose have to be something that has never been shown in comics per your knowledge (if you are not aware of said ability, then it doesn't count against you).
4. Don't think to hard on this. Example...if super speed was an option, don't think that your skin would peel back if you used it.

My name would be Counter.

I would probably be high meta.
I can counter/dodge ANY physical attack. Natural reaction.

Con of this is anything not PHYSICAL, that cant be seen, I'm screwed and I still retain my human physical stats, durability and strength which means I have to find other measures of taking someone out who has insane durability.

FLASH FORWARD.

The ability to pull replicate by "pulling" myself from various points in the past.
PRO: No known upper limit to that number.
CON: Any major damage suffered by a past self will affect any past self that's come after the injured one i've already "pulled".
Actual death to a past self will affect ME.

Like that. Amazing power.

LEPER MESSIAH.

Pros: Power of LEPROSY protects me from all street levelers.

Con: I have leprosy.

pros

'can touch a Smart TV and see all the way back to the first transistors also to any future technology that will be spurn from the ideas or usage of said tech'. this will be good for gadget making and stuff to that extent.

cannot hold the knowledge indefinitely. if he is not within eyesight, knowledge of tech will diminish and cease after time (10 minutes) due to always seeing or touching something and having to compete with Memory space and processing power.

also without the ability to touch the tech or see it the power is rendered useless.
