    i would choose Immortality (or eternal life) but it would be sad to see everyone else die.

    or flight or the power to bring dead people back to life, dunno if theres a name for it.
    Resurrection?

    The point is that someone could since you simply have eternal life. You could sprain an ankle, break a leg, develop memory loss, etc.

    The only way to fuck a person over that can't harmed over is to trap them (put them in a jail cell, drop them in the bottom of mine shaft, encase them in concrete, etc).

    Every power has a drawback but eternal life has too many.

    Even shapeshifting has all the drawbacks mentioned above plus one would have to change clothes for it to be effective. It's very cool power though.

    Probably the best power would be the Sylar factor where you can gain powers from others.

    The combination to be unstoppable would be

    Can't be harmed
    Super strength
    Flight

    You couldn't be hurt or trapped.

    yeah i would like to have 2 or 3 powers to make the most out of everything.

    The combination to be unstoppable would be

    Can't be harmed
    Super strength
    Flight

    You couldn't be hurt or trapped.
    i think you made a really good point, it doesnt matter what super power you have because, everything has a weakness. superman - cryptonite.
    i would to have a 2-3 power combo ftw

    Peter Petrelli doesn't appear to have a weakness so long as he can get in proper control of his powers. Aside, that is, from having his head sliced open by Sylar at the minute, which he'll be okay from - and having hair that doesn't look quite as good as my own.

    So my superpower would be to have a brain like his.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    Wouldn't eternal life work if you added that to the three you list, tho'?

    But I agree, not being able to die would prolly be crap on its own, in the long run.

    EDit: Altho' can't be harmed/invulnerability might mean that age doesn't affect you, now that I think about it

    If so I could live with that, if I only had to pick one, tho' I'd be really worried about getting trapped
    Or that powerstealing/borrowing-power, assuming others had powers to steal.

    But what if you lost track of all the places you were. Omnipotence is not for amateurs

    If Q came anywhere near me with my Peter Petrelli brain, I'd use my new powers sparingly. At least to start with.
