Poll If you were in the DC or Marvel Universe; which of these would you like to have your powers derived from? (64 votes)

Technology; from earth or elsewhere 11%
Magic; learning spells or wielding objects 36%
Biology; a happenstance of your genetics caused by birth, modification, or accident 53%

So I was curious what the comicvine crowd would you choose most given these options. These are the three options that define so many of our top tier heroes so I thought it would cool to test the waters here!

@kgb725: You could do all of that with magic as well. Though, if we are going with the accident route, would you say this picture speaks to you? :p

@realitywarper: I would go with magic myself. I would focus primarily on being a scholar (think a much less dickish version of John Constantine :p) but as an offensive measure I would focus on mastering teleportation seals.

I would never want to be in the Marvel universe it seems like every other day the planet or universe might get destroyed.

I'd take whatever of the three powers as ling as I'm in the DC universe.

The way he uses the magic is interesting. :)

@immortal777 Being someone like Phantom Stranger or vessel to someone like Spectre; would be legit! However, as with power that great it's often brought with sadness and terror

@immortal777: How many crisis's has DC had exactly?

Anyway, in Marvel I'd pick tech or magic. I'd like biological; but I might come out looking like that Fish kid that was tagging around with Juggernaut.

If I could choose... Hmmm? Maybe be Hyperion or Sentry.

DC Superman or Captain Marvel

@cloakx14: Spider-Man powers are some of the best! They are just sensible enough to not be OP but powerful enough to let you take on tons of scenarios

Magic is unpredictable, just as all of Constantine's dead allies, and Technology isn't that expensive when you inherit vast amounts of money lol

@realitywarper: The series was very good and it's a shame it was cancelled. Could it have been better? Yes, but at least they nailed Constantine especially in choice of casting.

@realitywarper: The guy who played Constantine was awesome and trust me when I say you need to watch up until episode 4. That's when the show rises to the occasion! In fact if you read early comics with Constantine you can just skip straight to episode 4 because it has to do with his run in with a member of his Newcastle Gang.

You know what I wonder? Considering how the voting has begun why do so many of the hero movies seem to be so afraid to focus on magical elements of their universes?

In particular I am calling out the MCU for bending over backwards to avoid magic

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

True but you must have high level intellect like Reed Richards,Dr.Doom,Black Panther,Bruce Banner,Amadeus Cho and etc ...even Spider-man created something that gave someone superpowers,

Then take biology,drink super soldier serum that Sentry drinked and become as powerful as low-mid celestial or even above(you will be powerful reality warper).Basically become Franklin Richards with long hair(maybe with shizo mind that depends who drunk the serum).

I'd definitely want mine to be biological. I wouldn't want my powers to be derived from technology for a number of reasons, chief among them the fact that at some point, the tech could break down, be stolen, or you could just become too old to use it.

I like the idea of the powers being woven into the fabric of who I am as a person. Now, biology doesn't define you, but it's part of your overall being.

Also, it's much more convenient to have biological powers so you can use them whenever and don't have to worry about finding crafty ways to carry large pieces of tech.

I feel I'd have just a little bit more fun.
