If you were to write a fictional story about a new superhero:

What colour or colour combination would be their costume?

If Clark Kent and Peter Parker are journalists, Storm is a teacher and Jessica Jones is a detective, what does your superhero do when they're not being a hero?

Red, blue, and gold. They'd be a history teacher by day....and by night (and on the weekends and on school breaks :p) they'd be a superhero :D <3

Mrs Irene Coleman is the retired School secretary from Centraldale middle school.


By Day she can be seen working in her garden in her usual Pastel dresses or at the bake sale handing out pieces of her famous Cherry pie wearing her "World's Best Grandmother" Apron.


When Supervillans hit the small town of Centraldale, their reign of terror was short lived. Every morning the police would find a new Villan woven in a knitted body sleeve on the ground outside the station unable to move. They had been fed a nice baked good which was nice, but their knitted sleeve held them for the authorities.


All of their stories matched.. their crimes were thwarted by a heroine in a black and white checkered dress and an Apron that said "Gam Gam Rulez" She would throw her knitting needles in the air and the scene was beautiful, a dance of color as the bad guy was woven in their woolen cell. Only one hand was free long enough to enjoy the nice Cherry Pie our hero brought for them.


Sleep well citizens. Wherever crime strikes.. Gam Gam will be there.


As for Mrs Irene Coleman, her lillies came in nice this year and her Cherry Pie came in 1st at the Centraldale 4th of July festival and Bake Off. The Gam Gam ruled again, but this time in peace.

This is such a cool icebreaker! The superhero’s costume would be red, white, and blue. While they are not in their superhero costume, they would be working in a cafe, selling coffee and little desserts! 😊

Such a cool icebreaker!

They're a group of high school students and work together instead of solo to protect the citizens from super-villains!

Each of them has a different "main colour" for their costume, including orange/yellow, black, blue, pink, and green. I'd also love to add a "twist" here in which the one whose main colour is pink would be a boy, whereas the one in green is a girl.

What colour or colour combination would be their costume? Black, purple, and red

what does your superhero do when they're not being a hero? They are therapist, writer and work on a comic about a character similar to themselves.

My superhero's colors would be orange and neon pink. When she's not saving the world she's saving the world still. Helping troubled youth find their way.

I have two superhero-type characters I've done some writing for.

Salamandra - she has powers over fire and immunity to it. Also, she can stick to any surface with her hands and feet. She can also use a few other pheromone abilities. Her costume will probably be red more than anything. Or black. Her hair is red. As for what else she does, she's in the military and is a chemistry student.

Desh - he doesn't have a superhero name yet. He wears normal clothes, with a red jacket and purple hair. He has control over blood. He does food deliveries, trying to make it on his own in Chinatown. He's also interested in entomology (the study of insects). I also kind of wrote him into the DC universe. He's got a massive grudge against Lex Luthor and has actually met and worked with Static Shock a little bit.

2. As for what they do:

Hmm, my conworld doesn't have proper superheros, but if I was an aspiring Ancieonnic comic author, I would start with the Golems of Clónar. They are a group of mindless brutes created from river mud by the Caline dhesuez (or, "Cunning Woman") to protect the citizenry during the violent final years of the Kingdom of Siueoaicri (or, the Kingdom of "Singing Birds"). Under the influence of the troublesome creator of the Earth, the corrupt Fish King began abducting random citizens to sacrifice to said creator, leading to a rebellion that destroyed the kingdom and forcefully splintered humanity forever. Within the kingdom they foiled attempted kidnapppings by the Fish King, though later the Golems followed the citizenry and became known as wandering heros against robbers and criminals. Their activity is restricted only to night, however, as during the day their muddy frame falls apart and a special flower known as a "soulflower" grows in their place. As far as colors go, I would expect that Ancieonnic comic artists would avoid blue and (especially) red, since those colors are strongly associated with particular regions od the country. Instead, they would likely choose green (to represent national unity), silver (for the color of soulflowers), and brown (for their muddy bodies).


I may have put a bit too much thought into this question lol
