Superpowers (also super powers or simply powers) is another term for
superhuman abilities, that is, any abilities that a human cannot possess. The term is mainly used in
superhero comic books but also in other media such as
cartoons. The term includes normal human abilities but at a level too great for a human to have, such as superhuman strength. It also includes abilities that might not be very impressive or useful, such as the ability to change the color of an object at will, as long as it is an act that humans cannot perform except perhaps with special equipment. By that same token, a character that derives his powers from equipment (such as
Green Lantern’s power ring) is not actually considered to be superhuman.
