Spider-Man, I guess, since a week’s worth of superpowers would leave me under the pressure of the clock. But Spider-Man with no webs isn’t really the powers of Spider-Man (regardless of natural or mechanical web shooting). More like “Strong Gecko Man” which is way lamer.
Well, if we’re going there, do Superman powers include a moral code that requires you to respond to every single natural disaster that happens anywhere in the world. Sounds like more work than fun.
It would be worse than that, because there’s no way you can respond to every emergency, even with Super-powers. I’d take Spider-Man and try to keep just one city safe-ish.
Definitely Superman for a week. Super-speed, invulnerability, flight, super-strength, etc.
The world will discover there’s a new sheriff in town. For a week, but nobody else knows that. Lots of Bad People are going to get tossed into the Sun. Dress like Black Panther with a full hood, or wear a solid stainless steel helmet with no openings. With no way to ID the person who drop-kicked Putin over the Alps, I would be safe when the powers wore off. Just let me compress some coal into rough diamonds and drop them down my pant leg when visiting Arkansas.
Can you imagine punching out criminals and leaving them for the police to find, with a note saying “A gift from your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man”.
Criminals set free, bench warrant out for clue-leaving idiot, and New Yorkers shooting at at anything that goes by overhead, including birds, planes and shadows.
Does the OP require us to use our powers for the public good? Sure, I’d thwart evil when it rears its head in my general proximity, but I’m not going to make a job out of it like Supes or Spidey.
Appreciate the healing factor, not be diabetic any more, arm wrestle for free beer, change the lights at school without having to use the ladder, and avoid everything that might attract the curiosity of The Powers That Be.
And eat German Chocolate cake for the first time in 32 years.
I’ll take Spider-Man’s powers for life. I’m not sure what I’d do with them, probably not fight crime, but being inhumanely strong & agile is pretty cool. At the very least I could make a good living headling Cirque du Soleil presents L’araignée Masquée.
