What if you had Superman's powers and found out everyone around you was incredibly fragile? Could you spend your entire life holding back?

I would probably become even more antisocial. But at least it would be easier to find a job. Why bother building a rocket if you can just pay 10000$ to one dude
Can't have just one, once you get a taste for blood.
I don't think it would be much different, especially if you were born with that strength level, you'd learn how gentle to treat things just fine. If you got a very sudden power boost it would be a lot tougher and there would be an adjustment period.
Controlling our strength is something most living things learn to do. Toddlers interacting with small animals, animals taking care of their young or playfighting each other
I would punch this fucking planet in half.
in DC no one but Darkseid can destroy a planet, tf are YOU going to do? lmao
Bullshit, Superman could destroy the planet if he really wanted to.
let me guess - you're a fan of Death Battle, don't read comicbooks and think that Superman is the strongest character ever?
Nta but didn't he once canonically bench press the fucking Earth?
Yes. He also held up the entire universe so that the god doing it could go to his daughters wedding or some bs.
Superman only really beat Goku because his "sun's out guns out" hax was stronger than Goku's "what doesn't kill me makes me l33t3r" hax. Superman can just park his glutes on the beach and slurp up sunlight until he's strong enough to shove God's head up His ass.
If we hold a sharp kitchen knife, it's not like we're going "OH MY GOD, I COULD KILL ANYONE IN MY FAMILY IF I DO ONE WRONG STEP! THE HORROR! I NEED TO CONTROL MYSELF TO NOT ACCIDENTALLY STAB SOMEONE"
This guy runs with sharp objects, pointy side forward.
>holding back
Anon, that's when I start cutting loose! It'd be like playing GTA with cheats on.
Speak for yourself.
You never had an urge to use the weapon you're holding, be it a gun, a knife, a sword, whatever?
What a fucking loser. And liar.
Someone doesn't have intrusive thoughts, I see. My family has legit OCD, and this is a thought every single one of us deals with. I didn't know it was abnormal until I mentioned it to a friend in 7th grade.
>anon trying to convince you he's not going to stab you
>I Love Blades, But I Would Never Ever Ever Ever Ever Never Cut Anyone I Promise
a lot of billonares and Republicans would end up dead I'd tell you that much
Anon is a writer for modern DC comics
Cool it with the antisemetism.
I don't think it will be hard to hold back, you can put your finger on an ant and don't kill it
That kind of responsibility would fuck me up for a long time. My every action could have enormous ramifications for the future of humanity, especially if the powers come with Superman problems like Doomsday and Darkseid. Superman's power really belongs to Superman, I already know I'm nothing like him.
Of course I could because I constantly work on myself, including my positivity. It does help that Superman has been my favourite hero since I was a child but I always loved how he always resorted to being good, even if it felt hard af to do.
>me
If I had Superman's power including being fast enough to do stuff undetected, the world would get marginally better one week at a time. I wouldn't publicly use my powers to become a ruler, but I'd definitely use my super speed to bug/record everyone in high places + use my gigabrain to crack all their personal devices. Then after a year I'd just start releasing a "caught in 4k expose" on every corrupt fuck and pedophile in power, one each week.
If I were superman and just started ganking every sicko and person I didn't like, I'd be a despot. If I anonymously expose them, I blow the lid off the bread and circuses without being the man at fault.
I'd also probably set up a lunar colony and a Mars colony.
as the physical powerhouse I am I already have plenty of practice holding back in jiujitsu class
so I think I can do it, and then when I have the opportunity to go against a natural 6'4" 300 and can finally cut loose it feels good
When The Plutonian in Irredeemable was a child he accidentally squished his baby brother's head and made him retarded.
I would use my super-brain to give other people super powers. I would create an organization of heros who live in the shadows to hunt the shadows. We would execute every single pedophile, rapist, and murderer on Earth as stealthily as possible. To ensure my members understand evil, I will only recruit from kids that were saved from violent crime by their own will or resisted extremely hard before I saved them.
I would isolate. No way I would be able to handle that type of precise control. His powers are mental, and I'm mentally unstable. Not a good fit.
