Line 53:
* ''[[Superboy]]'': Conner Kent and Chris Kent a.k.a. Nightwing have Kryptonian powers ''and'' tactile telekinesis. Chris' girlfriend Thara Ak-Var aka Flamebird has Kryptonian powers ''and'' [[Playing with Fire|pyrokinesis]].
* ''[[Legion of Super-Heroes]]'': Ultraboy a guy with the powers of Superman but he can only use one at a time (even the passive ones like invulnerability.) He does have a Legion flight ring so he doesn't have to use his natural flight which frees him up to use one other power. He does seem to keep the [[Required Secondary Powers]] for whichever ones he's using at the time though.
** The Composite Superman was a villain who, due to a freak accident involving wax statues of the Legionaries, gained ''all of their powers''. (Yep, he gained the powers of all 21 of them.)<ref>Oh, you want specifics? Okay, in addition to Superman's powers, he could grow big (Colossal Boy), grow small (Shrinking Violet), make two duplicates of himself (Triplicate Girl), throw lightning bolts (Lightning Lad), project heat (SunBoy), make objects lighter (Light Lass), make objects heavy (Star Boy), eat anything (Matter-Eater Lad), turn invisible (Invisible Kid), bounce (Bouncing Boy), stretch (Elastic Lad), shapeshift (Chamaeleon Boy), was telepathic (Saturn Girl), super intelligence (Braniac-5), magnetic powers (Cosmic Boy), could transmute matter (Element Lad), and could make himself intangible (Phantom Girl). Oh, and Ultra Boy had "penatra-vision", which was like X-ray vision, but was superior to Superman's in that it was not hampered by lead, so he had that edge too.</ref> While this included [[Superman]]'s powers (as both Superboy and Supergirl were members, plus Mon El and Ultra Boy being similar) he didn't exactly use them right and wasn't nearly the threat he could have been.
* ''[[Sub-Mariner|Namor the Sub-Mariner]]'': has everything you'd expect from a being built to survive underwater: strength enough to survive ocean pressure, agility and speed to swim quickly and efficiently... and tiny wings on his ankles that allow him to fly, making him a [[Flying Brick]]. This last was eventually explained as a mutation caused by his [[Half-Human Hybrid|surface-dweller/Atlantean hybrid]] heritage. Thus he's considered one of the first mutants of the modern age in the [[Marvel Universe]].
* ''[[Martian Manhunter]]'': [[Super Strength]], [[Intangible Man|intangibility]], [[Shapeshifting]], [[Size Shifting]], [[Psychic Powers|telepathy]], [[Super Speed]], [[Eye Beams|heat ray vision]], the ability to strain gold from seawater, the ability to create ice cream cones with the power of his mind, the power to animate clothing, underwater breathing, and control over magnetism. Oh, and fire is his [[Kryptonite Factor]]. Yes, ''even though'' he has heat vision. And the explanation for all this? He's Martian. That's it. The more ridiculous powers (ie everything after heat vision) have been mostly dropped in recent years. In his [[Justice League (animation)|cartoon incarnation]], his powers are strength, flight, intangibility, shape-shifting and telepathy.
