What would I do with super strength? - Work for a construction company? Beat up a couple people?
:stopitslime:
join the NFL and make millions as a linebacker.
Become a pro boxer and make millions.
Set records as weightlifter and become the next Arnold.

Everyone with super speed would die. Your skin would peel off due to wind resistance and generation of heat.

And that's at 100mph, I can't imagine what would occur at 500mph.

Super strength for me.

yeah lost all the skin on my arm by sticking it out of my car window :francis:

Speed is far more applicable to making money than strength unless your goal is to be an offensive lineman. :russ:

The name of the game is to make money without letting the government know you have a super power. Once the government knows something is up they gonna detain your ass and experiment on you. That’s why you choose super speed and just run slightly faster than everyone else, not turn into the damn Flash.

You should go watch the boys..everything around me should be scared of me

I have Seasons 1 & 2 as well as most of the comics, but there were several explanations concerning The Flash that made it abundantly clear that not only was he more powerful than Superman, his power had a LOT of 'help' in order to be viable.​

Philly bouls, Trust the Process
I've always felt that if I had super strength I technically do have super speed. If someone my weight were that strong then the force I could put into the ground to run/jump would be insane and I'd be insanely fast too

Super strength and also depends if my strength can further increase a lot by training.
With enhanced super strength my muscles and bones would be stronger for further durability, thus even if I’m sleeping or caught off guard I’ll be good.

Super speed. Im robbing every fukking bank and getting away with it.

Super strength just means violence. I don't wanna kill people and shyt. Having the government enlist me in they wars to blow up tanks and shyt... at the very worst super speed puts me in espionage. James bond shyt rocking tux and fukking bad ass euro pawgs.

All yall chosing strength just to be glorified goons and henchmen. Speed will make me a boss.

I'd go Superman strength over Flash speed

But it's close.. the ability to go beyond light speed and backwards in time is a very powerful ability

500 mph is nowhere near the speed of light; it’s not even faster than the speed of sound.

And traveling at/near the speed of light would allow you to travel into the future, but the past.

Super speed is a lot cooler and more fun, but super strength would be more practical
