Superhero Team Member With No Powers

January 24, 2009

I was thinking of Superhero Teams and the members with no powers. Such as Batman on Justice League, or Hawkeye on the Avengers.

It must really suck to be the one on a team and not to have powers, because let’s face it, without their gimmick tech weapons. They have nothing much to offer in terms of physical might.

Think about it: One guy runs super fast, another can fly, another is indestructible, and what does the last guy have? Well, he’s just athletic but really has no power.

I dream of a scenario where the non powered guy, gets killed by the super villain team. Cause let’s fact it, in terms of physical might, the guy with no powers has a huge disadvantage and would be the first casualty on the team.

Plus his team mates would probably snicker behind his back and go HA HA the guy with no powers. What’s he doing here again?

Having fancy weapons may help make up for the disadvantage, but any way you slice it not having powers on a super team sucks. And if that’s the case, I’d think a hero would rather go solo.
