If you could combine the powers of any two super heros, which two would it be?

Hi Hero. I was thinking about your question. My favorite superheroes aren't really superheroes: Batman, Elektra, Deadpool, Green Arrow. I think I would prefer to have all their combined skills with weapons more than an actual superpower.
Captain Marvel/Shazam and ... Someone with telekinesis. Can't think of one offhand. And that would be the 1930s serial Shazam.
DC and Marvel Comics actually did this already. I think there was one issue of Dark Claw and one issue of Legends of Dark Claw.
If I could have any superpowers I'd want only two. First, I would love to be able to teleport. Just the thought that I could on Friday teleport to any place in the world on Friday and teleport back on Sunday night would be fantastic. Second, I would want to be clairvoyant.
I think just about anything with Wolverine would work because he heals so fast. I like Spiderman because he has a built in warning system, though the claws and the spider web may be tricky, but it could work with some practice I think...

I don't know one that's clairvoyant, but the x-men had one that could teleport (if you don't mind being blue)

Wow, um... hmm... tough call... Dr. Strange and The Shadow .... or Wolverine... (I like the healing power). Can we do threesies?
give me five minutes and I'll re-think it...
I'll be back.

Dark Claw was one of the interesting smushed up characters in the Amalgam (Marvel/DC) Universe. His archenemy was the Hyena, a cross of the Joker and Sabretooth. You can probably get the comics from Amazon.

It might be worth it to teleport.

It's not easy being green...I heard that from a frog once... but, he wasn't exactly a superhero.
I generally don't have any favorite superheros. I kinda like 'The Shadow' I guess. I like his outfit (esp the slouch-brim fedora) and the twin Colt .45s he carries. He's ready to gun down anybody! See here:
And he always fights bad guys we can actually enjoy seeing gunned down bloodily, like crooks and commies. I hate how other superheroes are always fighting super-villains, its soooo stupid. 'The Shadow' stays true to his pulp, crime-fighting roots.
But the best super-hero (if I had to choose) for fame and movie development is definitely The Atom. He is the guy who can shrink himself down to the size of quarks and electrons, remember?
Its the only character with really huge and untapped potential. Reminiscent of the great SF story 'The Incredible Shrinking Man'. Except this is a character we could actually follow into that world. The CGI animators could actually do something interesting for a change. Show us what things actually look like in the sub-atomic universe.
Superheroes who's powers might be combined? Hmmm...'Plastic Man' + 'The Human Bomb'? (new name: 'C-4'?). Or, 'Invisible Girl' combined with 'J'onn J'onzz, Martian Manhunter'? That would make...let's see..Invisible Trannie from Mars?




I would have all of the power of superman and would no longer have to worry about you Earthlings and your pesky kryptonite!
