Headlopper would think Terry McGuiness would be super...lative!(look it up)
Reed Richards a close second. Why? Do you have to ask? You need a little hint? He can make...well...umm...he's...he's ...married to Sue. Who's hotter that her?
Which begs the question: who the hottest chick in ALL comic-dom?!

Wait, its which one i want to be, not what powers i want? Hell, most of them have terrible lives. loved ones dead because of them or infront of them. being totally screwed with all the time. id go with iron man. worst thing in his life was a drinking problem and that would start off fun.

Of course it's Superman. I voted Superman, also, but for different reasons than him having an awesome power set.
TheMadman
TheMadman - 7/27/2011, 6:01 PM
I'd want to be Spider-Man. In this real-world, I'd be un-matchable physically, be extremely powered (compared to everyone else) but NOT overpowered. I mean what if you're superman with anger issues? You could kill 500 people because your girlfriend broke up with you (yeah, I know, sounds like Ult. Hulk). But at least with Spider-man, you get super-strength (up to 20 tons), super-speed (running up to like 80 mph or something), wall-crawling, web-slinging, a spider-sense to alert you when danger is coming (which could be VERY helpful), Super-human senses, healing,and INCREDIBLE reflexes, not to mention being the greatest balancer on the planet. So yeah, I'd want to be Spider-Man.

Superman? Why not? You get super human strength, flight, super visions, enhansed speed, incread intelligent; hell, all his powers are the basic vision of human evolution at its peak. I definately would like to have those powers.

Though if it were up to me, The Flash is my for super heroes I want to be; I get super speed, great amount of intellegence and a sense of humor. That is my choice for super hero to be.

Speaking of the Flash; here is the link to my fancast of the said character, right here:[LINK].

to all you folks who say they want to be spiderman, I sure hope you know what you're asking for...

revloveR - 7/27/2011, 6:38 PM
Out of those I'd go Supes, than Spidey; but if i had a choice overall, I'd go with Thor. he's a fricken god for his sake.
LMFA0
LMFA0 - 7/27/2011, 6:43 PM
Ok I'd say Superman and here are my reasons for not choosing the others:
1. Batman: both of my parents would be dead, I would be super lonely, I may be a bad ass but being a human with all the issues he has is not worth it even if he is a billionaire

2. Iron man: there are very few draw backs on this one but if I'm gonna want to be a super hero the least I could ask for is some sort of actuall power. Money doesn't buy everything (except a bad ass suit)

3. Wolverine: he may be bad ass also but he has watched everyone he has ever loved die. I couldn't handle that. Life isnt meant to live as long as he has unless the ones you love age with you

4. Spiderman: no. I mean he'll no. He's a cool kid but everyone hates him in his world because he's a nerd. He has lost almost everyone he's ever loved and he is super lonely. This would be my last choice

The poll is not whos powers would you rather hav it's who would you rather be and Superman seems to have the best of both worlds. He married (well not really anymore) he has the best power set and he has a complete life outside of being a hero. He is the only one on this list to still have the people that raised him still in his life and that has friends that really care about him. Plus he can fly!

Not surprising really.

I was sitting here debating whether I wanted to be Wonder Woman, Storm, Rogue, or The Scarlet Witch... and then I realized that Rogue can take on the powers of all the above with just a touch so I vote for her.

Yeah for me it's Superman



But if not him I'd Choose Captain Marvel. I mean I'd be a foster kid but all I'd have to do is say the magic words SHAZAM and I'd be the awesome god like superhero.


S for the wisdom of Solomon As Captain Marvel, Billy has instant access to a vast amount of scholarly knowledge, including most known languages and sciences. He has exceptional photographic recall and mental acuity allowing him to read and decipher hieroglyphics, recall everything he has ever learned and solve long mathematical equations. He also has a great understanding of divine phenomenon in the mortal world. The wisdom of Solomon also provides him with counsel and advice in times of need. In early Captain Marvel stories, Solomon's power also gave Marvel the ability to hypnotize people. (Solomon is the only figure in the list not taken from Greco-Roman mythology.)
H for the strength of Hercules Hercules' power grants Captain Marvel immense superhuman strength, making him one of DC Comics' most physically powerful characters; he is able to easily bend steel, punch through walls, and lift massive objects, (including whole continents like South America). In the comics, this strength has evolved in parallel to that of Superman.[citation needed]
A for the stamina of Atlas Using Atlas' stamina, Captain Marvel can withstand and survive most types of extreme physical assaults, and heal from them. Additionally, he does not need to eat, sleep, or breathe and can survive unaided in space when in Captain Marvel form. Pre-Crisis, it was implied in some stories to give him invulnerability.
Z for the power of Zeus Zeus' power, besides fueling the magic thunderbolt that transforms Captain Marvel, also enhances Marvel's other physical and mental abilities, and grants him resistance against all magic spells and attacks. Marvel can use the lightning bolt as a weapon by dodging it and allowing it to strike an opponent or target. The magic lightning has several uses, such as creating apparatus, restoring damage done to Marvel, and acting as fuel for magic spells. If Billy is poisoned, for example, transforming will enable him to survive.[26] Pre-Crisis, it was claimed in some stories to give him invulnerabilty.[27] It can also turn other Marvels back by striking them. It aids interdimensional travel at the Rock of Eternity.
A for the courage of Achilles This aspect gives Captain Marvel the courage of Achilles, giving him bravery and in one story it is claimed to give him fighting skills.[27] In the Trials of Shazam! mini-series, this was changed to Achilles' near invulnerability. It also aids Captain Marvel's mental fortitude against most mental attacks.
M for the speed of Mercury By channeling Mercury's speed, Captain Marvel can move at superhuman speeds and fly, although in older comics he could only leap great distances. This also gives Marvel the ability to fly to the Rock of Eternity by flying faster than the speed of light.

lol, no one wants to be Spiderman! HA!

Out of all Superheroes I would want my boyfriend to be Superman.

Superman is the ideal man! He's big and strong. Has a nice tan, jet set black hair that he slicks back and can actually pull it off. Handsome, courageous, and most of all he's the man of 'steel'!!! lol
