Everybody had a favorite superhero when they were a kid (even if that "superhero" didn''t come out of the pages of a comic book or the frames of a cartoon.) If you had super powers, what would they be?

Who is your favorite superhero and why? Batman, because he has those throwing rings.
If you were a superhero, what powers would be at your command? I would be Turtle Boy. I would slip into my shell and launch myself at the enemy.
Who or what would you fight for, or against? I would fight against Oil Boy. I like the ocean and oil seems to get in there a lot, so Turtle Boy could fight against oil in the water and Oil Boy.

Who is your favorite superhero and why? Elvis Presley, because he has those swivel hips.
If you were a superhero, what powers would be at your command? I would be fortunate, and have power over all the men in the world.
Who or what would you fight for, or against? Against injustice! I would make everyone love each other.

Who is your favorite superhero and why? Snoopy, because only he could fight the Red Baron from the roof of his pad, and he was too cool to say any cheeseball hero lines.
If you were a superhero, what powers would be at your command? Well, the obvious answe--X-ray vision [grinning].
Who or what would you fight for, or against? I would fight to wake up America, for peace and freedom, and all that important stuff heroes fight for.
