Supposedly Lex Luthor is also in the fight, so it will probably be the same old story... EDIT: Superpowers are for wimps. I want god-like powers.
So, you want to be part of the Q Continuum?

So, you want to be part of the Q Continuum? Back off Q!! She has amazing powers that are hinted at and never shown or explained. Though why anyone in the Q Continuum would be in any way intimidated by Guinan is never explained. Obviously there's more to her species than we ever learn, but unless she's omnipotent, there's no way Q would act the way he does here. Sure, Q exhibits many petty quirks and inconsistencies, but... come on. ~source

The Next Generation = Yes season, episode = Season 2, Episode 16 Q throws the Enterprise into uncharted space where it encounters and is engaged by a vessel of a previously unknown species: the Borg. When the vessel instantly and effortlessly overwhelms the Enterprise, Picard realizes that the Federation may not be as ready for the future as he thought. Here we have the first mention of The Borg, and their introduction is admirably mysterious. At the time I was rather annoyed at the lack of info, but over time I came to appreciate it. Their subsequent presence in the series is strengthened by their first appearing like this."

Ah, I'm sure I saw that episode, some 20 years ago or something like that... but I didn't remember that scene. Thanks for bringing that up. Personally, I kind of liked the abrupt introduction, and how "different" the Borg seemed at that time, compared to the other more traditional species. And it also left you wondering why Q had done it in the first place: was it a creative way to get rid of the Federation, or did he have some ulterior motive for doing so?

I would love to fly. I dreamt it once when I was a child and remember it as if it were yesterday.

Starting a business as in deliveries to remote locations, urgent documents, import and exports... That sort of stuff. I know you are thinking of smuggling too, but I am not I will use my powers to form a company with same hour shipping! Good bye FedEx, UPS and the post office! Will deliver miners on hand, no pre-orders. When you click on pay, your miner will be at your doorstep by the time you get there. Forget cloud hashing. Keep the miner.

Next Generation was such a great series. One of the best things they did was kill off Natasha Yar early in the series: It's really unusual to kill off a major character in a TV series (at least back then it was), so for the rest of the 7 year series, any time they were in danger the chance of someone actually getting hurt was more realistic. That's one thing about Star Trek, it needed to be more realistic sometimes.

Exactly! Invisible would be awesome! I would also do this classical cartoon thing, with two people standing back to back, and then hit one of them, and repeat that until they start fighting!

Well the question is : Do You want superpowers? not: Do You want everybody to have superpowers? As for myself I would go with the "seeing future" superpowers.
