    what sort of physical changes come with these super powers though

    that's the question that we should be asking

    Has there ever been a comic book character that was weak and pretty unathletic but his one power is he can't get hurt?

    yes, it is an awesome story too. It was in the avengers initiative after civil war

    his power is that his body cannot be harmed or change state at all.

    guess how you get stronger? you break down muscle mass and it grows back.

    whoops, my body can't be harmed in any way.

    The most surprising thing to me is finding out there's a character in the Marvel Universe named Batwing
    Batwing? Really? You couldn't think up something a little more original?

    I wouldn't even mind him being a Batman copy as long as they named him something different

    I loved the whole bit where they explained the differences between people who choose flight instead of invisibility and vice versa

    I liked this but I didn't like the reasons for why people chose the power.
    I wanna fly cause I'm scared of falling! Simple as that. :P
