Ohh, bittersweet tears. I love it.

Flight to Hulk.

The power of purpose to Wonder Man, and near light running speeds. Oh, and while we're at it, might as well give him concussive hand blasts. Copy and paste all of the above onto Colossus.

Actually I like the fact that he can fly, this would make him too generic. Hulk with a mental assault/onslaught to the surrounding beings that gets more powerful with rage would be nice.

Give Captain America the Starbrand already.

TethAdamTheRock
Lobo flight

Wolverine Healing factor to black panther

This would be so awesome without being too overpowered.

Flash like speed to Thor. That would be so unfair though.

Long ranged light speedattack for WW (like potent energy blasts or hv)

Flight or teleportation for Hulk (to combat bfr).

Magic power (strange or fate) to Superman.

High level tp for Superman.

It's like wanting for Superman to be able to manipulate energy just because it would be easier to argue for him against characters; would completely ruin him. As would Hulk flying, or super speed. I see some wanting TP or magic-power to Superman and whatnot.

Meh.

Like, for example, I'd extend Thor's weather stuff - being able to make lightning/storms inside people's bodies and whatnot. It's improving his finesse, without putting supplementary powers on his already ridiculous list of abilities. I don't want to see him act like Quicksilver. Imagine Hercules getting into footraces, that -- doesn't seem like him?

TethAdamTheRock
Because without speed, thors fights with gladiator or hyperion should be onesided

GalacticStorm
Storm - The ability to transform her body into the elements she manipulates e.g lightning for increased travel speed, air currents to bolster her resistance to attacks and allow her to infiltrate places she couldn't normally etc

Be good to see her explore her mystical potential as well.

Wonder Woman already have long range fast attacks. She is just afraid of using it...

Superman: The power to lose once in awhile.

It's not easy being the most powerful character of all time, across any fictional or non fictional plane of existence, across the entire multiverse, omniverse, metarealities both concieved, unconcieved, ill concieved .

By Vsbattles standards, true 0 omnipotence simply isn't good enough to discribe his vastness.

So yeah, the power to not be so damned awesome.

That's a really good one GS.
Does anyone remember a late 90s or early 2000s issue in which multiple futures of the x-men were shown (NOT a "what if" story!)? In one of these futures Ororo actually realized her full potential and ascended to a pure elemental energy being.

Now that i mention it - tomorrow i'll have to dive into my collection and find that mentioned issue.

I think giving Black Bolt's hypersonic voice to Dazzler would be pretty interesting.

High level psychic/psionics to Superman.

Photographic reflexes for Captain America. He doesn't really NEED them, but it just makes sense that he would have them because of his peak human brain and coordination.

I miss Classic Thor. That scene is almost poetic. Classic Thor beating a future version who is Unworthy and corrupted from the inside by outside forces.

Thor summoning a Storm inside an opponent is OP AF. Even another God of Thunder (Who survives unharmed!).

Superman: healing touch.

Surfer: doesn't fall when knocked off board.

Teleportation to Deadpool:

I think it would be interesting to have a character, who can regenerate from pretty much anything and is basically immortal, be able to teleport on top of that. That way he could continue to regenerate from anything, but he couldn't be captured and held captive anymore. He could teleport out of everything and could teleport to every location. Seems overpowered though. Not in a comic book universe necessarily, since he had his teleportation belt... but as the only super-powered character in a universe it would be over the top.

Darkness manipulation to Moon Knight:

At first I thought about giving it to Batman, because it would be more fitting... but that would take away from Batman as a character, who is a rich guy with plenty of fancy gadgets. Super powers aren't his thing.
Moon Knight however does have slight super power, when there is a full Moon. And if he was able to manipulate darkness and form it into constructs... or travel through shadows and so on... you could create visually appealing images with all the black darkness and Moon Knights white suit. He could also form his alternate personalities and even Khonshu as constructs to help him fight and so on.

Healing abilities to Superman:

Superman kinda has more of destructive abilities if you think about it. Sure, you can use them to do good in certain situations, but with a healing touch (like Mindset suggested it), you would immediately gain access to plenty new stories with Superman. Even darker stories, where people did dangerous things just to get him to heal their family members and so on.

Weapon summoning to Ares :

Mainy him summoning all kinds of various weapons. That's the first thing I would do for Ares as a writer. I don't want him to just have a sword and an axe. I want him to have access to all kinds of regular and mythological weapons. He would just summon them out of thin air, grab them and go ham on his opponents.
I think he is somewhat capable of doing that already, but that magical ability of his is kinda limited... while I would want it to be a core part of his character. Maybe even give him the ability to move those weapons with his mind. So you would have this brawling character, who is surrounded by a field of spiky weapons running through hordes of demons and slashing them apart.

Superjump to Wolverine:

Let him do his own canonball special without the starting help of heavy hitters.

How about Colossus being able to (at least for short periods of time) turn into various other metal forms:

a) an adamantium form for even higher levels of durability and strength
b) a vibranium form for energy absorption
c) a mercury form for infiltration
d) a uranium form for energy blasting

BOULDER DASH I would actually like to see this, even if a limited run. Truly, the moniker is too good to only see in a forum.

I second this.

Someone write a letter to Priest. Bet he'd do it.

Take away Bane's tubes and give him armor similar to Arkham War arc. More focus on skills.

Not exactly a powerup, but I think this fits.

I would add some clarity to Selene, especially her magic. We know she's a candidate for Sorcerer Supreme and see impressive displays here and there, but it'd be nice to flesh it out some more. You can still keep the mysterious angle while giving her a clearer identity power-wise. She's lived for millenia, so it won't be out of the blue if she surprises readers will some unknown power down the road.

I totally missed that. Can she actually fly around like Torch, Angel, etc?

Is this her floating?

Wonder Man - Super Speed, Energy blasts.
Batman - Class 10 strength, and the attributes of that strength class.
Colossus - Magnetic Powers that allow him flight, durability and strength buffs.
Hulk - Flight.
Captain America - The Starbrand. Steve's an artist, it could be very interesting.

Colossus - Adamantium skin
Wolverine - super speed
Spiderman - 80 tonner
Hulk - teleportation (or consistent super speed)
Superman - personality

Here's the problem with that train of thought.

Subject: Superman.

I'll name as many characters that I feel will show you that they will never stop emulating pre existing characters.

Superman Clones: Gladiator, Wonder Man, Hulk, Supreme, DBZ characters, Mon El, Silver Surfer, Icon, Zod, Luke Cage, Blue Marvel, Majestros, Starbrand, Super Girl, Colossus, Shazam, Black Adam, etc... I could go on, but the point that I'm trying to make here is that the vast majority of super comic book characters are actually just another take on Superman. It will never stop. You see it as being SJW only now? It's been going on for longer than either of us have been alive.

Adam Grimes
Superman: the ability to bring back people to life. He won't have to feel remorse after accidentally one-shot splattering Hulk.

BestEverNoob
MCU Thor: Airbending (admittedly, he does make a tornado in the mcu. Once. In the first Thor film. BRING IT BACK)
MCU Hulk: Healing factor
Wonder Woman: Healing abilities
Black Widow: Invisibility

Booya_69
Hulk- ability to release destructive gamma energy from his body/gamma blasts from thunderclaps.

Juggernaut- super speed.

Old Man Whirly!
I don't think Superman is powerful enough, so I would add someway for him to get as powerful as the plot needed like dimensional suns as a plot device. shifty He could beat anyone then!
