The above picture is a detail from a cover of Normalman, a 1980s parody comic series about the lone un-powered human on a planet where everyone else has powers. Normalman’s best friend was Captain Everything (pictured): an aptly named, incredibly dim crusader whose superpower is the ability to literally conjure up whatever ability the plot required at the time. Other heroes aren’t so lucky: We all know about Superman’s incredbile strength, the Flash’s speed, and Dr. Manhattan’s super blue nudity, but which power would you choose?
To promote next week’s Blu-Ray and DVD release of the box-office hit Watchmen, Warner Home Entertainment have created an amusing survey and contest asking what sort of superpower you would like to have. Contestants are entered into a draw for a Sony Blu-Ray player and a collection of Warner superhero movies.
