I thought you were going to post Night Thrasher. :P I was thinking about him when I made this thread.
I like the look of Night Thrasher plus he's black like me, but to be honest...I don't really like Night Thrasher. Too 90's, especially with the skateboard.
Well, if they don't have SUPERpowers then they are not SUPERheroes, just Heroes...
Just because one doesn't have "super-powers" doesn't mean they can't be superheroes. Being a superhero isn't just about having superpowers, it's being able to go beyond the impossible and doing what others can only dream of. Anyone can be a hero, but only those dedicated enough to rise above themselves can truly be called a SUPERhero; whether they have superpowers or not.

So... Is Bruce Lee a superhero? because I really like his movies... Just kidding. Well, for the Ancient Greeks a hero had to be someone that does something extraodinary (Oedipus killed his father and married his mother, he is a Hero for that, crazy isn't it?), now is used for someone extraordinarily good, oh well... nevermind, this post was pointless...
I assumed Winter Soldier had powers. Guess that's what I get for only seeing him in a flashback in Agents Of Atlas.
The closest thing Bucky has to powers is his bionic arm, but that still only takes him so far. But he's actually more human that Captain America as he doesn't even have the Super-Soldier Serum in him, just pure skill and training.
I could throw any of the Bat Family out there and be happy with my selection--or either of the Questions for that matter--but I think I'll have to go with Ted Kord simply because he's so underrated.
I vote for Rorschach. No billions on bank accounts to buy supercars and supergadgets, no backup from government agencies, no serum to stop aging (Black Widow). Just brutal force of Justice without compromise.
Does people like Iron Man count? He doesnt technically have any super powers... I see Bucky is already mentioned, and he have a bionic arm, if that doesnt count as a ''superpower'' then a powered suit doesnt count aswell, right?
Anyhow... i got a total broner for Nightwing, Batman, Batman Beyond, Green Arrow and the The Question.

Damn, I assumed Bucky went through some Super Soldier or Super Soldier like treatment that caused him to go crazy. My Winter Soldier knowledge is very limited so I filled in the blanks with common gimmicks. lol

He's a lot more complicated character than most people would assume, under Ed Brubaker's writing he's become a great and complex character that I would eve dare to say rivals some of the more interesting Marvel characters that have been around for decades. I'd recommend looking into his character more, you might be surprised at how awesome he really is xD
I've seen Batman's name mentioned too many times on this thread. Not because I have a problem with him being someone's favorite hero (he's my favorite as well), but because he does have a superpower: Its called "getting things done".

Ted Kord, Vic Sage, Elektra (before her ninja whamma-jamma stage), Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Ravage before getting mutated, and, sure, Punisher.....to name a few....

Bucky's bionic arm is simply a more advanced prosthetic to replace his lost arm. It does give him added strength and faster reflexes but ONLY in that one arm. The rest of his body is human.
@SupermanJohnathanKentJr: That's arguable, since his "power" is skill based, and would be accessible to anyone who trained enough. Hypothetically speaking, everyone on Earth could have the power of the Iron Fist.
No no no, Danny Rand was chosen to be Iron Fist and I believe he had to go through some difficult trials to get his powers. He has one of the harder to obtain superpowers. He's not just tapping into chi everyone has or whatever.
Nightwing has had personal training from batman himself and has BEEN batman himself. he's a character i can relate to the most...but then there's Rorschach, who is so devoted to justice he thinks his mask is his REAL FACE! i cant say i can relate to him at all. but i admire him the most. he makes batman look like a spoiled BRAT! lol but i think im going to still go with nightwing only because i can relate to him more and his costume is cooler than Rorschach. But their is no doubt in my mind that Rorscach can whoop Nightwing! aha

Right, i know, i know ;). But how about Tony Stark, does he then count as a hero without powers?
