Which super power would you rather have?

Hep, I'm mesmerized everytime I look at that green eyed cat!     Bud

Bud, you're exactly the kind of guy I'm trying to reach.

I also picked super speed, but I suppose I didn't think of it like you did. Yeah, the minute I tripped over something - instead of stubbing my toe, I'd TAKE THE LEG CLEAN OFF.

No, no that's not right at all.


So, maybe I'd rather be able to throw fireballs. You know, to entertain kid at birthday parties.

All they need to know, is that it'S MAGIC!

[bigbud]

Yea Drew, pretty interesting dilemmas are possible with any of your choices. If you throw acouple fire balls at the wrong person they might take you out with a gun. If you leap tall buildings then your leg muscles would be incredibly strong, but what would be the impact on the rest of your body when you hit the ground with such force? If you could breath under water you'd need protection from the pressure to go deep and find that sunken treasure (might as well be in a mini-sub).  And like you see, if you go real fast, can your mind process what is in your path? I can see our Steeler fan-Scatter hitting that big 300+ lb. GB Packer Radji (or whatever his name is) at super speed......Scatter loses......big-time. If I were to pick I'd have to go with the Leap Tall Buildings and not because I could leap tall buildings, but because my leg muscles would be incredibly strong and I could probably cause some serious stuff by stomping my foot down. Didn't the Fantastic Four have a foe like that?........was one of Black Bolts buddies...........Bud

It's interesting but for some reason or other the image was widened when I uploaded it for my avatar. Here is the original:

  Thanks to our big buddy Big Bud explaining it all, I change my choice to - none of the above.  Gotta go with invisibility, so I can freak people out by making them think their houses are haunted.

[toys-of-terror]

Super strength

Super strength

Not an option.

And yes, Bud. The guy you're thinking of is Gorgon. He's one of Black Bolt's buddies, they lived underground. What was their group name? The inHumans or something?

[bigbud]

Yea Drew, that's right! Now I remember too......the Inhumans, with Crystal falling for Johnny Storm and that city they were trapped in except when Lockjaw the monster bulldog would transport them out. I'll stick with the "leap tall buildings".  I got long legs.....super strong long legs would be cool....Bud

[Uncula]

Just some geek type observations on our choices......Super speed: Where ya gonna use it? Might be OK in the open fields of Kansas where I am, but even that wouldn't keep you safe from running into barbwire fence. Super speed doesn't mean your mind could process what lies in your path at super speed, OP didn't say you were the Flash, or Superman.....only that you could go fast. Car hits you at 40 mph......you're dead........you hit a car (or any large object) at 120 mph....you be super dead. I'll bet not one of you super fast guys could get a block before they found your super fast ass flat out on the pavement having run into something.
   Breath under water: Doesn't mean you can handle pressure any better that any diver. What fun......able to breath under water........up to 20 feet down.......wow.
    The ability to fly: That ain't one of the choices! Able to leap tall buildings is more like the Hulk (or Superman in his first few comics, no, I don't believe he flew in the beginning).....legs as wide as a tree so he can spring into the air as far as his leg muscles can propel him......that ain't flyin'! You get leg muscles able to spring you only as high as the tallest building......period.
 You see the comics don't put much emphisis on the fact we are all just fraile human beings. You get the powers, but you are still in-the-mirror you.......deal with it.......Love, Buddy
 

BigBud, your logic is impeccable as Mr. Spock might say     ... but hellooo, we're talking fantasy here.    I don't mean to burst anyones bubble here but Vampires, werewolves, Zombies are all creatures of our imagination!          However, Santa Claus is real!!!    hahahaha So there!   

[Uncula]

Super speed...........I'd be the next great Steelers wide receiver!!

Scatter...you wish!

If you only knew. One day when I know you guys a tad better, I'll tell you my Christmas experience. Right now you'd think I was nuts.

[bigbud]

Dr Madd......some of us have been wondering about you and the armory for some time..

Uncula.......bite me......LOL.............Love, Buddy

Now, I thought I was being nice!     Complementing you on your logic and all.    But since I'm a Vampire,    I'll take that as an invitation in.  I'd LOVE to bite you!    That was what you meant, right?    Love, Unc.! hahahaha

Nonetheless, Back to what Super Power I'd rather  have ; it would have to be Super Speed for that would cover all the bases except for the water one! 

[bigbud]

Unc, I'm gonna trip ya with my super strong legs and that'll be it for you. Nobody laughs at Santa on my watch.....Love, Buddy
