What is the most overrated ability in comic books? That one capability that makes a character overpowered.

Ex: Doomsday's inability to die the same way twice

Speed. Doesn't matter how much more powerful the other person is, if you're faster, its an autowin on here. Even thought that's not how it happens in comics. And it doesn't even have to be flash level speed. The slightest speed advantage and that person stomps.

That's not true. Speed doesn't matter if you can't kill the opponent. For example, Flash vs Iceman would be a stalemate, not an autowin.

@mortal:

super strength - when people start debating they always post of how much a person can lift or something to that effect. Lets not lie, Im sure when we were all young and made are own superteams, we all had a strong-person just cuz it just seemed standard. But super strength means nothing against TK, TP, or magic

this! super strength is one of the powers that really don't make or break you. Its not a necessity and is too one dimensional.

I actually think prep is underrated. Batprep is overrated but good preppers is good

People seem to think prep is an instant win for any character. Put Captain America w/ prep against Superman and i'm sure you'll have dozens of people come in and say "Cap gets kryptonite /thread".

Prep has to be within the abilities of the character as shown on panel. You can't just just make sh!t up....which is what I think most people do.

Speed. Well its over rated by Superman fans anyway, they love to act for example, that Thor would not be able to hit Superman although Thor has faced people as fast as Supes plenty of times and Superman has been hit by people as slow as Thor plenty times.

This and reality warping.

Yes people think seem think that doctor doom is on Majestic level where he can move at super speed in nano sec and build tech during a fight . Stating doom doom with 12 secs prep can defeat any one is pretty silly when he doesnt have the speed too
