If You Were Allowed Just ONE of These 15 X-Men Powers, Which Would You Choose?
May 09, 2014 03:12
The latest film adaptation of Marvel’s X-Men series, Days of Future Past, will be released this month, and it is expected to be the best one thus far. It's the 7th X-Men film, but there are still plenty of characters who have never been revealed on the big screen.
One thing's for sure, everyone owns unique powers that mortals can only dream of having. If you were to inherit just one X-Men superpower, what would it be? Take your pick from below:
1. Flight
If you could fly like Aurora, or Angel, you wouldn't have to sit in a traffic jam ever again. And if your arms were strong, you could even give a pal a lift. You'd be so popular.
2. Weather Control
When it's scorching, you wish it rained. When it rains, you wish the sun came back. Make up your mind! Except that you can't, because it's not up to you. But if you had Storm's ability to start thunderstorms whenever you want, you could have some refreshment during really hot days. Unfortunately, you might not be able to command the sun to appear. Just clouds.
3. Ability to Understand Any Language
This is actually mortally possible. But you'd have to spend a really long time studying every language before you can understand each one. And unless you're a genius, you might be really old by the time you can use these "powers". So if you were just born to understand any language like Cypher here, you'll probably be extremely socially interesting. I'd be your friend.
4. Control Fire
While people worry about "burning bridges," you could literally burn one if you hated it. You could also throw fireballs at assholes. No one would dare mess with you. But be prepared for when your friends start asking you to light their cigarettes, or barbecue pits, or be their mobile heater. I'd be Pyro's friend.
5. Phasing
If you could walk through walls like Kitty Pryde, you'll never have to worry about bringing your house keys with you. It's your friends who would be worried about having you just appear in a room.
6. Invincibility
Being invincible the way Colossus is just transforms your body into a form of indestructible steel, but it sure would be nice to be able to protect yourself this way. And you'd look pretty cool too.
7. Indestructible and Adaptive
Darwin can adapt to survive, so if you had his powers, you would be able to do anything! You could fly, breathe underwater, get hit by a bus, and your body would know how to transform to keep you alive.
8. Precognition
Like Blindfold, you'll be able to get visions of the coming apocalypse. Hm. Scary. Maybe not so great after all.
9. Control over Magnetic Fields
Of course Magneto's powers are cool. You'd be able to manipulate electromagnetic fields in so many ways. You could move heavy metal objects like you're picking up a tissue paper, and you can protect yourself from metal objects flying at you. Oh, and you can levitate.
10. Create and Manipulate Ice
I guess your defense here would be to use ice to protect yourself or attack someone. It's not all that bad, but it's kinda limiting. I'd be Iceman's friend too, because you never know when it's going to be too hot and you'll need a mobile ice machine.
11. Superhuman Strength
Beast has amazing superhuman strength, and he's intelligent too. If you had the powers of Beast, you'll have no problem doing a lot of things on your own, AND have the intelligence to use it when it's best needed.
12. Telekinesis
If you've ever watched Matilda, you'd have probably stared at an object intently, trying to move it with your mind. Jean Grey/Phoenix was blessed with this power. This is such a cool superpower to have! Imagine moving things around without lifting a finger!
13. Teleporting
Nightcrawler's mode of transportation saves him a lot of time. You'll never be late again with his power. Not only that, you would probably be more than able to multitask going to several events at once. You could also travel for free. Indeed a very tempting superpower to have.
14. Self-Healing
Wolverine's fighting skills are awh-sum.. but his healing and slowed down aging process are more attractive. You won't need anti-aging creams or plastic surgery. Besides, with an indestructible adamantium skeleton and razor claws, you could fend off danger and protect your pretty face from any harm.
15. Shape Shifting
Mystique's ability to shape shift puts her in high demand for spy organizations. She can look like whoever, whenever. She could easily make a fool out of you, by posing as, say, the Prime Minister, or the Pope. Or your cat.
16. Telepathy
Don't you wish you knew what other people were thinking? Or better yet, know what they're thinking and manipulate their thoughts! Professor X's power is extremely coveted. You could talk to people in their heads too. Mobile phones? Internet? No need! Save up for when you want to pimp your wheelchair.
