Come Fly With Me ...

Come fly with me ...

I’ve been considering, if I was a superhero ... what kind of superhero would I be? What would be my ideal superpower?

Now, Green Lantern’s ring is pretty fantastic. With that he can fly, create any object he can imagine, clothe himself, etc. However, having all of those powers at once gives him a bit of an unfair advantage. Same goes for Superman for this one.

I’m trying to imagine if I had just one superpower (think Heroes, Misfits, or early Smallville) what that power would be.

I’ve always thought invisibility would be fun. Perhaps it’s just the curious journalist in me, but it would certainly be great to get backstage of any concert or political event. Also, if journalism doesn’t work out, I can always switch to my back-up career: International super-spy.

However, invisibility doesn’t really help in situations where I wouldn’t have to be invisible, and the clothing issue (do the clothes turn invisible as well, or would I have to change clothes constantly?) just seems too finicky in most situations.
