Single-Power Superheroes: Difference between revisions

There are many superheroes out there. Some, like [[Batman]], do their super-heroing using years and years of training their bodies, [[Badass Normal|showing human capability to a remarkable extent]], [[Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?|possibly with the help from a utility belt]] as well. Others are like [[Superman]], having a [[Combo -Platter Powers|whole grab-bag of superpowers]] that [[Flight, Strength, Heart|needn't even be remotely related in some of the extreme cases]]. Then, there are superheroes like [[The Flash]]. [[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Beast Boy]]. [[Static Shock|Static]]. The middle-roaders. The ones that only have one listed superpower, but which they sometimes [[Imagination -Based Superpower|have]] [[Semantic Superpower|many]] [[Swiss Army Superpower|uses]] for.

As you can guess, this trope excuses unmentioned [[Required Secondary Powers]], since they often aren't a power in their own right, though the line can get a little fuzzy at times. [[Elemental Powers]] are a sub-trope of this. In a show with [[Cast Speciation]], this can easily become [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]]. (See Hawkman in the ''[[Super Friends]]'' cartoon.)
