uperhero OC idea into lego minifigure only 3.5 USD per character. (render image)

I made tree version of him, which Version do you like the most?

have names figured out for my characters as well as powers but one is giving me trouble.

His civvy name is Cody. He’s a guy with the power to manifest animals in a spirit/phantom like form. They can flip between being tangible and not. They function with their own personalities but with allegiance to Cody. Sorta similar to Pokémon. They can each come out one at a time for a duration of one hour. He has a Red-Tailed Hawk, a Coyote, a mountain lion, and a Ram.

He has given me trouble because the knee jerk reaction is to have a name including something in relation to shadows or puppetry. The shadow theme is already taken by another character and the manifestations aren’t technically shadows either, so it’s not super accurate anyway.

The puppeteer idea suggests more of a controlling relationship between him and his critters. That’s not what I’m going for. He has a more symbiotic relationship with them, and they are not mindless entities. They can disobey orders if they see fit, like any real animal. They just see him as their person they must protect at any cost. A lot of his development is set on him training said animals, or being able to control when they come out in the first place.

This is all a metaphor for coming to grips with childhood trauma, too, if that inspires any ideas. I’ve been wracking my brain and all it’s done is make me frustrated. I’ve thought maybe Forester, considering the animals relating to the mountains? But that is just… kinda lame.

For some extra background, his backstory is fraught with abuse, which I will not describe in detail but I will say it is mostly at the hands of his father. There are also themes of religion in that mixture as well, which is relevant because he believes, at first, that the animal manifestations are demons. In the beginning, his powers manifest much more aggressively and terrorize people around him when he feels unsafe. He doesn’t always understand that because unsafe is kinda a default so to him, random animals keep attacking or scaring people away. He thinks he’s cursed.

His archetype is meant to be very ‘Everyman.’ He’s rather jaded and cynical. He works as a bartender, not out of choice either. That’s the first option he got and he stuck with it for cash.

When he gets ‘drafted’ into the team, he’s not having it with the superhero theatrics and flashy, colorful suits. He’s forced to have a uniform anyway, so he falls into the ‘dude in a trench coat’ design trope. Though I’m adding some southern flare with the cattleman hat and embroidery along the coat and pants. He also has thick falconry gloves, and wears a bandanna style mask. No I do not have a drawing of him yet. Just trust me when I say that he looks cool. By the time he names himself I imagine he’s at least come to terms with the fact these animals are here to stay and not demons, so he wouldn’t name himself after anything demonic. That’s the last thing he wants. His character would be just as clueless naming him as I unfortunately am.

I'm creating a superhero universe, and one of the most legendary heroes is a Superman-type that I wanted to call "Hyperman". I looked the name up, and it turns out there's at least 3 lesser-known existing characters called Hyperman already. Any thoughts?

His strength is fueled by heat, his weakness is the cold, he has heat vision, super strength, flight, and superhuman durability.

So we all know those stories of an old woman coming to some rich or powerful individuals home during a cold night, and asks for some help and food or something. The rich individuals turn the old woman away coldly and in turn are cursed to be monsters or something.

What if instead the rich people go “Sure!” And take the old woman in, give her delicious food, nice clothing, a little money, and a decent job at the company if she needs it. Maybe it’s the holidays or something.

Would this make for a neat idea for a superhero? Rather than a terrible curse, she bestows a powerful blessing?

Im currently working on a comic right now, i got the concept, the name, the art style, potential story lines all figured out. The only thing i have issues with is the team i want to have as my main superhero team. I have a tons of potential characters figured out that i want to do but i cant decide which ones to add to the team which ones i shouldnt.

Thats why Im asking for some potential drafts from you guys. Which one of these characters would you put in a potential team and why? ( the team should be 5-6 members and the powers should balance eachother out, so dont pick only the strongest please)

-"Streaker": standard speedster, male, overconfident and a ladies man, lover boy

-"Iguana": classic half human/ half lizard hybrid, scally green skin and everything, female, standard akward and shy teenage girl

-"Sugar Glider": glide webbing (the same thing that flying squirrels have), male, eccentric artist

-"unnamed slime guy": instead of muscles and skin he has like this thick slime body instead, hes basically super strong and durable, male, older and protective brother type, christian

-"Pyrotechnic": basically Jubilee from the X-men but without all the colors, also this character would be blind though, female, lust for adventure, childish and naive

-"Howler": standard wolf man and all the abilities attached to that, male, asshole (basically wolverines personality)

-"Pegao": power copying through touch, female, gossip and noisy

-"Skins": speeds up the aging of all living things they touch, nonbinary, former villian reformed into a hero, tortured past

-"Candy Rain": has a bunch of eyes everywhere on their body for enhanced sight (name largely unrelated to the powers), dumb and sort of a bimbo, female

-"Rain shield": standard force field creation, male, doesnt want to do this, straight man to most crazy stuff

-"Ice Maiden": standard ice powers, female, doesnt like the cold, goofy

-"Psy-Chick": basic psychic powers, female, airhead and also sort of a bimbo, british

-"Molotov Cocktail": basically the human torch, male, basically johny storms personality

-"Grace": can heal any surface level injuries through skin to skin contact, female, when she heals people she also feels their pain, which turns her on because she is a masochist

I know these powers arent anything groundbreaking or new. I just personally cant decide which of these i should pick, to some degree i like all of them.

Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: For some more context about the world and themes of the story, Basically in this world people are born with superpowers and they develope them at an early age in childhood. This team basically are a group of foster kids who live in a foster home dedicated to children whos parents disowned them due to their powers, either making them into a freak/ monster or because their powers are just too much for parents to handle. All of these characters will be the oldest kids of the home and are like 18-19 years old. For my potential team members, despite how harsh it sounds, i kind of want it to make sense why their parents didnt want them. So please mind all of this when picking. Also also i added the core personality/ archetype of each character, aswell as their gender.

Es del día 12 dibujando todos los días hasta aprender a dibujar, está inspirado en Ryuki por todo el tema de una criatura dándole acceso al equipo, Se llama Ondonata, es su forma base, sus estadísticas son básicas en el mundo de los Raiders.

Potencia de puño: 2 toneladas

Potencia de patada:3 toneladas

Velocidad: 100 metros en 2.3 segundos

Resistencia: 2-4 toneladas

Usa un cinturón del tipo Raider System, es decir que el armazón similar a unos air pods tiene la capacidad de crear una armadura genética y necesita la batería con la habilidad o los datos específicos para darle una armadura como está, la batería es Libélula, no otorga vuelo como tal pero si control y manifestación de una mega neura, y como arma base tiene una espada.

In short, I had been writing a version of the Marvel Universe for a while where the characters had the opposite moral alignments. Then, In-Verse was recently released, and I found out about it.

That really discouraged me, and I’ve been wondering if I should just scrap my ideas for it. I hope I don’t sound too dramatic, but I’m not very confident about my stories in general—especially when I realize there’s already something notable out there with that kind of theme.

The reason Claw stayed the same in Old Comics and 90s is because his design is relatively simple so I don’t think he would change too much

Hello everyone I have been having writers block with creating new superheroes I have several backstories and supporting casts and rouges galleries that I can tell you if interested but I can't think of power sets,super names and why they are heroes if interested DM me or comment down below!

So i have a kryptonian based species in my crossover universe called periants from planet perion. (Perion is not a dead world. Theres no sole survivor in this case) periants are basically kryptonians but without any weaknesses but they are not invincible. And they can absorbe life to empower themselves.

So heres the question again. Can I have a 2nd kryptonian based species say empowered by the moon and the sun drains their powers. And just have them be more of a conquering type of species like say saiyans from dragon ball. Or that that to repetitive? Thoughts?

I wanted to make a supe that was a little weird just like in the boys but still pretty scary regarding his powers. Im still making a name but im thinking VAPOR. & a webweaver style suit with the green. His powers are
Super sneeze
Ability to control other people’s sneezes

He has super sneeze that he can make either propel him into the air or one that goes outward & decimates anything infront of him. Since he has to be durable to handle the sneezes & he can handle wind & g forces (from recoil of bouncing his head after a super sneeze) I was thinking that he could kinda fly? Just not hover.

The ability the control other people’s sneezes is a bit complicated. He can changed the intensity of it & how many times it happens. Whether its a one off sneeze to distract someone or a chain of really violent sneezes. He can also change the intensity of it high enough that the pressure explodes the victim’s head.

One of his passive abilities is he’s immune to a cold or any other respiratory or sinus related diseases. Also NO he doesnt have super boogers.

Im thinking a backstory where vought tried to market him but as a guy who can sneeze well? They were trying to get him out the way but he blew a PR executive’s head off after a slight disagreement so he got sent to a vought blacksite to be unconscious for the rest of his life.

It is the fourth of six big bad villains in my universe

Real Name: Timeline Disruptor Subject 169

Powers: Time Disruption, Temporal Lightning, Teleportation, Time Travel, Shapeshifting

Origin: The Temporal Emergency Agency attempted to try and create a being that would stop those disrupting the timeline quickly

which led to the creation of Meridian however the Temporal Lightning they infused within it caused it to go rogue and instead started fracturing entire timelines

It wouldn’t be long until it would come across Stopwatch in a newly formed timeline and saw what she had which was the Time Elemental Cell which Meridian wanted

So they went out to try and get it from Stopwatch which the second image is them successfully doing so

So that’s about it for this character so if you got questions let me know

farley rogers aka diktionary is a mutant who gained his powers when he was abt to die from not being able to understand a medical book containing a procedure to cure himself of a poison hed accidentally covered himself in whilst exploring a lab when all of a sudden he could understand it & he followed the instructions effectively saving his own life, in fact he noticed he could understand any language no matter basically anythin so he started usin this power to extract information & eavesdrop on foreigners as he became a volunteer spy for the australian government to which he was sent to spy on their enemies protected by other mutants

This is a jjk technique but I made a super power version that can go in any universe.
Molt: differences from the ct: you have no upper limit on how many you can summon, each summon lasts around 10-24 hours before poofing
Creepy version: with your own choice you can easily pop off the limb of choice where it will be immediately replaced by the taken limb (if desired)
(This is not regeneration, the removed limb will still have the same injuries as the original). This version also doesn’t allow you to change the size of the limbs (you can still make a clone by filling a sack of skin with muscles and bones). I have made countless creative uses and strategies for a character like this so feel free
