Up, Up, & Away?

1.     Spider-Man – His primary power is spider-like reflexes. He has enhanced strength as well.
2.     Superman – His primary power is flight, but also invulnerability. Those two are pretty equally important.
3.     Batman – Batman’s primary power is his genius level intellect. People say that his power is money, but he’d be useless without being the world’s best detective.
4.     Iron Man – Like Batman, Iron Man has genius level intellect. It helps that he’s extremely well experienced with military technology.
5.     Green Lantern – His primary ability is his possession of the Power-Ring, a ring that gives him the power to create anything he can think of.
6.     Thor – Thor is essentially Marvel’s Superman, as his primary ability is superhuman durability. He can also fly.
7.     The Incredible Hulk – As Bruce Banner, he has genius level intellect, but as the Hulk, he has super strength, and is also just huge.
8.     Buffy the Vampire Slayer – While not originally a comic book superhero, Buffy is certainly a superhero. Her primary ability is enhanced strength and agility.
9.     Aquaman – Most people don’t realize how awesome Aquaman is. He’s basically Superman, underwater. His primary ability is telepathy, enabling him to manipulate sea life, and also speak all languages.
10.  Wonder Woman – Her primary ability is super strength, agility, and stamina.

If I could have a superpower for the rest of my life, and it had to be either flight or invisibility, I would go with flight. I’ve weighed this a lot. I think flight is the better option. I really can’t think of any cons for it. With invisibility, you gain abilities. You can sneak into a movie unseen, or shoplift. You can spy on people. It can be depressing hearing what others say about you when they don’t think you’re around. Invisibility gives you more to do. Flight eliminates things you already deal with. You would never have to sit in traffic, or walk behind slow people. You could get anywhere incredibly fast. Plus, it’s probably also incredibly fun.
