Theme

Where is my super suit? For this challenge you are to create your own super hero.

Some photo shopping is allowed if you have trouble with the title.

As an extra rule, take your time! Some of you can be super fast (me included) and I’ve noticed that the early bird usually catches the worm. So for this challenge I’m subtracting a point for anyone who posts within 24 hours.
It should hopefully level the playing field a little bit. Consider it an experiment, whoever wins is free to get rid of this rule if it doesn’t work out.

Rules

  • Follow the community’s rules above all else
  • One comment and image per user
  • Embed image directly in the post (no external link)
  • Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we’re all here for fun and learning)
  • Posts that are tied will both get the points
  • The challenge runs for 7 days from now on
  • Down votes will not be counted

Scores

At the end of the challenge each post will be scored:

Prize Points
Most upvoted +3 points
Second most upvoted +2 point
Third most upvoted +1 point
Hero +1 point
Comic Book Cover +1 point
Last two entries (to compensate for less time to vote) +1 point
Prompt and workflow included +1 point
Post within 24 hours -1 point

Hero points are awarded to the most fleshed out hero, (backstory, uniform, powers, etc.)

Comic Book Cover points are awarded to those that most look like a real comic book issue.

The winner gets to pick next theme! As always, have fun everyone!

    i thought, as funny as it is as an idea or a joke, this would make a worse than Hancock movie. We would watch a guy do nothing for at least 90 minutes

      In my head the stories would be about a 70/30 division of mostly other heroes trying to save the day and the Procastinator dealing with some mundane problem or obsession, knowing that he’ll probably need to help but he still has plenty of time.
      The story would escalate with the heroes fighting the big bad guy of the day. While the Procastinator is aware that he really should be stepping in soon, but postponing it to deal with whatever is in front of him at that moment. Figuring he still has time, as long as he really rushes later on.
      The climax will end with the heroes almost defeated and the Procastinator swearing and running to do the thing he needs to do. He’ll end up getting there just in time (usually), to do some really simple thing that will -in an almost Rube Goldbergesque manner- ruin the bad guy’s plans, and save the day.
      The heroes will be pissed off, because of course the Procastinator could have solved this hours ago if he just managed to get off his ass a bit sooner. Maybe Mr. Awesome Beam’s cape will be shredded, or the Bucktooth Wombat’s WomTruck will be completely smashed because of his late appearance. And they’ll act like a bunch of thankless assholes, as usual.
      The Procrastinator will take their behavior as an excuse so he won’t have to learn anything about time management and the story will repeat next week/issue.
