Default If you had Spider-Man's powers, what would you do?

Even with the proportinate strength of a spider, I'd probably be too scared to fight crime. I'd probably be too lazy too, lol. What about you guys?

Lazy comes to mind, too. I'd probably help someone that is within my reach, but put my life aside to fight crime is something I don't see myself doing.

But...I don't have powers, so it's hard to say.

I'd probably squander them selfishly like he did at first, trying my luck in either the NBA or the NFL. I think the most believable aspect of Peter Parker's story is that it took such a tragic example to make him realize that the power wasn't his to use or not use as he saw fit.

Risking your life, your pleasures, your time for the sake of others while you put your entire family and friends at risk if they ever discover who you are?

The last thing I'd do is to sacrifice my life for a bunch of unknown people.

I'd go for the money as fast as my abilities would allow me. And for personal vendettas.

To answer the question: Use them! I can see why super heroes have costumes, though. Make a seperate image other than yourself in clothes, so you can actually walk down the street. I'd probably keep my powers secret for a little bit. Reveal to only a few people I like to impress them/make them feel special about knowing, and others not. And go from there.

I'd fight crime. Be like Iron man though. Maybe reveal my identity while steal being...a Genius, billionaire playboy philanthropist No. But i would keep my identity a secret for a while. Unless i must absolutely tell them. I've learn to treat a secret that means life & death like a loaded Gun.

Organic webbing or none unless I make my own?

I'd try to keep the spidey aspect of me a secret to the world, not going to reveal a Spider-Man existing in real life as long as I can

I'll stay out of the house for long hours, if I get pissed I may do something too damaging, I don't like myself when I'm angry

No more video games I never played before, I have a problem of being this angry obsessed loser

I fight crime near me if I have something to conceal who I am, but try not to show my full acrobatics, and don't get obsessed searching for crimes to stop

If the existence of a Spider-Man was revealed without people knowing who am I, I'd stick to the mask bit and go acrobatic as I please

Then I would find an isolated place, run fast towards a very large and heavy bolder, push it and say: "I no longer look up to you physically Chris Redfield"

His spider-sense would tell him if it was good to hit or not.

I would go to NYC and just web swing all night and day. The idea of swinging around sounds like so much fun. Maybe stops some muggers. Save a few balloons. You know, the usual.

I'd probably work for the government. I can't see being able to keep something like superpowers a secret for long unless I had the government keeping it a secret for me.

What I'd say without spider-powers: I'd make/get an exact replica Spider-Man suit to wear. I'd go around the city stopping crime and kicking ass. I'd be like, yeah, Spider-Man's real! And just be the actual Spider-Man.

What I'd say with spidey-powers: I think I'll just, stay low, ya know kinda keep secret. But the second someone does something mean, I'll make a black suit and just pillage 'til I can't pillage no moar!!

Default Re: If you had Spider-Man's powers, what would you do?

I'd take it that if I was bitten by a genetically engineered spider it would do what it does to Peter....essentially (well hopefully) slim me down, give me spider sense, the proportionate strength of a spider, super human durability, speed, stamina, reflexes, quilibrium and regenerative healing factor....and of course wall crawlling

Honestly.....

I may make a pretty makeshift costume and go pro wrestler with my identity secret. Not only that, I'd make bets on myself so to gain more money.

Then wait a few months, testing out my powers, impressing my friends...and girls (but not too much to make them suspicous) with parkour and free running as well as my strength. Also go out at night and climb about the local city (Belfast) and just keep mucking about with my powers.

Now unless I gained organic webbing, I'd have to figure out how to build web shooters and aquire webbing. If organic I'd go swinging about, getting to grips with web swinging, doing tricks, running along the walls etc.

Then I'd aquire my own proper suit, my own design but with some spider-man elements to it and go out and fit crime, wherever I find it. But tbh would have to end up moving to the likes of London or NYC to get some proper crime and height for web swinging.

Eventually I'd be seen as a superhero or something....and I'd share my identity with a friend or two....

Default Re: If you had Spider-Man's powers, what would you do?

I've never been much of a secretive person, so as soon as I knew I has powers, my family and friends would know.

The area I live in doesn't have much crime at all, so my powers would be wasted a bit on person ends.

I don't like football or wrestling, so I'd probably go for being a For being a photographer for a newspaper.

Not kidding either. I'd be able to get some insanely good angles wall crawling and the like.

Also, I'd fight crime if I knew it was happening.

I'd hope I didn't have organic webs, 'cause that's just gross.

Wouldn't be able to make my own webbing, as I'm nowhere near as smart to be able to make them, so I'd likely be jumping from place to place.

My suit would be dark grey with a black Venom symbol on it.
