    Can I choose all of the above?

    I like Superspeed myself. Excellent power. Wish I had it.

      Also very practical and kickass. Big fan of The Flash too, so that helps.

    You really need to present this from a roleplaying perspective. DC Heroes is an old RPG and in it Superspeed is freaking awesome. Actually Superspeed is pretty damn good in other Superhero RPGs too.

    I went with teleportation. Just about any situation, it comes in handy. In a life or death situation? Teleport away. Your girlfriend is bugging you? Teleport away. Craving some food? Teleport to a restaurant.

    New poll: I vote Wedding Crashers of course 🙂

      Hahaha. Was kinda confused by all the love for teleportation at first, but now I get it and I can’t deny it.

      And that’s a solid vote right there.

        Yeah, I think I voted for Flight immediately, but when I looked back at what was winning, I was like, “Oh yeah, I guess Teleporting is just a quicker version.” Still, the sensation of flying would be pretty badass…then again, the bugs and birds would likely not be so badass.

        Still, I don’t see how Telepathy won. Probably my least favorite of all of them. Hell, I’d take the sheer pervy joy of x-ray vision over that.

        Hahaha. Teleportation is definitely the faster, more practical choice, but flying is just so much sweeter. But idk, telepathy definitely has its perks, man.

    I voted for flight twice. Who doesn’t want to fly? Literally anywhere could be reached.

      Hahaha. I thought that one would be way more popular for that reasoning alone. Weird.

    I’m surprised no one said x-ray vision. There has to be at least one creep out there who reads CTCMR, haha.

      Hahaha. Was surprised by that, too. Who do these guys think they’re fooling?

    Shapeshifting would be badass.

    Looking forward to the newest poll you put up.

    Good post sir.

      Haha. Thanks, man. And the more I thought about shapeshifting this past week, the more I realized that it is indeed very badass.

    How in the world is “flight” not on this list? Just curious…

    I didn’t vote because there was no ice superpowers. Iceman was my favorite. Thank god he was played by Shawn Ashmore. He and his twin need to be in more movies.

      You should have put in “Other”, dude. But, come on, how often would you really use ice powers other than to instantly turn a warm beer cold?

        I could start the next Ice Age. Anything that can induce an apocalypse I say is pretty cool.

        Haha. Still, not the most practical thing out there, but definitely cool if you liked “Cat’s Cradle”.

        (or just ending the age of man)

    I want the ability to control time, please.

        Well, since time is the 4th dimension, that would imply controlling matter/space as well 😛 😉
