Superheros, groups and dignity!


Ever thought about what superhero you would what to be? What powers would you want to have and why? How would you use them for the greater good? How would you use your powers with dignity and not for selfish reasons?

List your favorite superhero group. Why are they successful? Would they be as successful on their own? How do they work together? What do they each bring and how do their individual contributions make the group more successful What is their goal? How do they solve conflicts within their groups?

  1. I'd have to say that my favorite superhero group would be the X-Men. To me they are successful because they all have amazing powers, and play to each others stregths and weaknesses well. I'd have to say that their main goal, like any superhero group, would be rid the world of evil. I haven't watched x-men in a while so when they have conflicts i am not sure how they would sovle them. My guess would be they would talk like normal people to resplve their problems.

  2. My favorite superhero group would have to be the Mutant Ninja turtle. They are successful because they work together and communicate well with each other. They wouldn't be successful on their own because if they were to be attacked by others they would need help. They work together to protect people. They each bring something different to their team which helps them defeat others. They solve conflicts by talking.

  3. My favorite superhero group would probably be the Incredibles. They are successful because they work as a family and communicate with eachother. In the beginning Mr. Incredible does work alone, but he needs the rest of the incredibles to help him out; so they would not really function the best without eachother. Each member of the incredibles has a special talent so as a group they have a variety of skills and can function effectively. Their goal is to rid the world of evil villans! Because this group is a family, they just try to communicate to resolve their problems. No matter what they are family and they will work through their problems no matter what.

  5. My favorite superhero group would have to be the Justice League of America. They work together well because they have amazing powers...obviously...and they communicate and work as a team. Well incase anyone didnt know who was on the Justice League of America, it's Superman, Batman, Robiin, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman. These were the original five. There main goal is to keep the city out of danger and ride the world of villians. I didnt think that superheros faught, but if they did im sure they would work things out by talking to each other and working out the differences.

  9. I agree with Becca M. Cause the Incredibles do work together even if Mr. Incredible works by himself but needs their help either way.

  10. One group I thought of was Powder Puff Girls. They work together to defeat evil creatures. They each bring a different power to the group. Working together to keep the people of their town safe from evil. Their goal is to make sure Mojo Jo Jo doesn't take over the world. They learn from their conflicts after they have then happen to them during the show. This group wouldn't be successful on their own because they each bring something different and without one of them they would have that strength they need. Also if they were to leave and do things by themselves they would not be able to defeat others, because if the one went down they couldn't call for a back up.

  11. Sammi I love Ninja Turtles. They work great as a superhero group. Each of them being a different color with different skills. They also bond well and share a common interest in eating pizza:).

  12. I think my favorite superhero group would have to be the Incredibles. They are a family so their group bond is stronger than most other groups. Their job is to help protect the world from evil doers. I think each individual member has their own unique powers that could be successful alone but they work much better when combined. Conflicts within this group are solved like most family conflicts; parents and some sort of punishment are usually involved.

  13. Sara,
    I also like the Power Puff Girls. They are a unique group because they are young and still learning. Without each other they would not be successful at all.

  14. My favorite superhero group is Teen Titans. They communicate with each other and team up with each other to rid the world of evil. They do fight and sometimes they split apart but then after a while they come to realize that they can't beat their enemies unless the work together.

    But i also like the Justice League of America like Sarah. They communicate well and work together. But yeah I don't remember them fighting either.

  15. Even though i love every superhero out there, My favorite superhero is the Jusitice League of America! They are a very hardworking and successful team. Since they work together, they accomplish more and cover more ground. There goal is to keep everything safe from all the bad guys and they succeed their goal by working together as a team. By working together, you can accomplish anything! When they have conflicts, they just talk it out and act. The less time they bother with arguing, the more time they have to save the world.

  17. I didn't watch the superhero movies for a long time but my favorite superhero group is Mutant Ninja turtle. They are successful because they act and live as a team. They always support and help each other. They are successful not just because they have powers but also because they care for each other. All their goals are accomplish togather. They woudn't be as successful as they are on their own don't matter how hard they try. Their main goal is not to let evil overcome good in their world. As far as I remember they solve conflicts by talking to each other and their teacher.

  18. GUYS,
    You can laugh but I never heard about the Justica League of America,nor Power Puff Girls, nor Teen Titan. I watched X-man once. What can I say, superheroes are my weakness.:( In anyways, when I was reading through posts I had to go and google all those groups so I had some idea who are they. I recognized few superheroes in JLA and thats all. So it was very useful blogging because I learn so much from it about superheroes.
    Thanks Guys!!!

  20. My favorite superhero group is Scooby doo and the gang. Even though they don’t have super powers they work as a team to solve the mysteries that they encounter along their journeys. Even though they have many differences they don’t let them get in the way of getting the job done. One their largest advantages is having a talking dog on their side. Scooby can sniff out any bad guy he just needs the support of his team to get him. Sometimes they end up in scary situations but with the support of their teammates they make it through. Freddy brings a leadership quality to the group. Daphne often adds comic relief to the group in stressful situations. Velma is the brains of the operation. As for shaggy and Scooby they always stumble on the bad guys and figure out who is behind it. O and if there is ever a need for food to be eaten you can bet that these two buddies will be there to eat is all in a heartbeat. This team takes the divide and concur strategy, without each other it would be very difficult to solve the mysteries they are presented with. They all figure out a little piece of the puzzle then they put their heads together to figure out the puzzle as a whole. If they have problems within their group it is easily solved with a good meal or a Scooby snack.

  21. im going to go ahead and say the best superhero group is easily Batman and Robin. They represent a group so well in the sense that they both need eachother to be successful. Robin more so than Batman obviously, but you get my point. All the others have powers enough where they could make it on their own to some degree. Not this duo, they both need eachother because they work so well as a team. not dissin on anyone elses heros! haha

  25. I would have to say that i dont really have a favorite team.. I dont even know teen titan of the league america? Maria dont feel bad! I would have to say that the incredibles are a good team and work together very well. The incredibles work very well because they are family. They want to protect the world by the evils. They each have their own power. I think they could be successful on their own but like every group they would work alot better together. As any family would solve problems, the incredibles do the same thing.

  26. Elise I really liked your post! I love scooby doo and his gang. Its very unique becacuse they dont exactly have certain powers but they work very well as a team solving problems. I would have never thought of them.

    I also like Sarah's superheros the power puff girls. They each have a power and without eachother they wouldnt be successful they work good as a team!

  27. If i could be any superhero i would have to be the Flash. I would because i love running and i love running fast and thats what the Flash can do best. The flash has super speed and that what I would love to have too. I would use my super speed to prevent something bad from happening like if someone was about to get hit by a car I would use my super speed to run and save the person before they got ran over by a vehicle. I would use my powers for dignity as much as I could. i would try and make my world a much safer place and help many people from getting hurt or killed as well as fight crime. I think my favorite super-hero group would have to be The Ninja turtles. They are a great group that has great teamwork. they are always helping each other out and saving others in a time of crisis. If they didn't have each other they would not be as effective and they wouldnt be as safe if they weren't a team. They all have their own specialties that helps defeat the opponent that the other teammate could not do because their skill was different. they all work together to solve their conflicts and keep each other safe as a team.

  28. I agree with sammi about the Ninja turtles!! They are awesome and the best group of super-heroes ever!!!!

  29. I think that if I could have any super power, I would choose to have Any one of the powers that the incredibles have. i am in total agreement with Katie ont his one. They are the coolest group because they are superheroes and family at the same time. It's really cool to watch how they all interact and struggle at times. But they are always able to unite and take care of business in the end. I think that x-men would be a close second, but the incredibles are just too cool. (sorry this was kinda late, I was hunting all weekend).

  30. I'm going to have to agree with David here. The incredibles are the best and they work really well together. I would like to be the invisible one. They all use their powers to defeat evil and are a family as well. I would like to be the invisble one because then i could sneak up behind enemies and get secret information being like a spy. I think being invisible would be really cool and could save people from being hostage or whatever without being seen. I think that would be something I'd like to do if I had that power. All in all though I think the Incredibles are the best superhero group

  31. I like your group Elise about Scooby Doo. They were one of my favorites when I was younger. Good pick :)

  32. My favorite superhero group would be the Ninja Turtles. They are succesful because they all work together and know what the others bring to the table. They wouldn't be succesful on their own because each one of the turtles is dependent on the others. Their goal is conquer crime and evil to better the community and make it safer. They solve their conflicts by talking through things and Master Splinter lets them know that they all would be nothing without the other members of the group.
