Carbon is one of the elements that's so much of you it just is you. You are your own kryptonite.

Dude that'd make a fire comic concept, following the daily life of a crippled superhero allergic to themselves

The story ends when it reaches present day and its just a gravestone and the whole story has just been a flashback

You know these tests are just to associate your account with a birth year, do you?

u/Wboy2006 Why are we shitposting? Are we stupid? 10h ago

See my username, you don't need a post like this to associate my account with a birth year

Also, if that's what you're worried about I take my online primary very seriously, I don't share any identifiable information online like photo's, name or location. I'm not too worried about people knowing my birth year

Maybe you already have superpowers but your kryptonite is preventing you from using them?

1

u/Wboy2006 Why are we shitposting? Are we stupid? 9h ago

Doubt it, Kryptonite doesn't just negate powers, it actively kills kryptonians (and gives cancer to humans). Neither is happening to me as far as I know

u/Darknessidiot1227 9h ago

u/QuantisOne 7h ago

But what if we DO have Superman’s powers but Yellow Sun radiation nullifies them instead of Red ?
