Superman is way too white-bread for me. I think I'd go with The Flash. I mean, he's not only ultra-speedy but he's a cool wise-cracking character. > > > > Stephen > > This was originally brought up on an episode of Seinfeld, but given the subject matter, I think it deserves mentioning again. > > Superman has all kinds of super powers and super senses (vision, hearing, etc...), so why wouldn't he have super-humor? Or super-compassion? Or even super-wise-cracking? If that's the case, and I think there's a pretty good argument that it is, then I'd have to say that I'd have to go with Superman. > > Here's another question about Superman that I heard somewhere. Why would he just stand there and let bullets bounce off him, but duck when a bad guy threw an empty gun at him? And for that matter, why would the bad guy even throw the gun at him if the bullets had no effect? > > Kel"faster than a speeding tortoise, more powerful than a Tonka truck, and able to leap small children in a single bound"ly
I would want to have the power to read people's minds. And be emphathetic like Deanna Troi. And definitely be able to turn the power OFF. Combine that with the powers of LetterMan, wrap it in a Catwoman suit (without the ears and tail, I think), sprinkle it with intuitiveness about people, and that would be the perfect superhero for me to be.
