| Jan 2, 2018 at 18:35 | comment | added | computercarguy | In the TV Show Supergirl, she works with a government agency almost exclusively, so that shows at least 1 super powered being that'll join a police force. Luke Cage, of DC Comics, is no looking for recognition for his super powers. He goes through quite a bit to remain as low key as possible. I'm refraining from down-voting this answer because it is an answer, but it has existing examples to the opposite. Also, someone who can fly, or simply jump high, can rescue a jumper midfall; bullet proof can prevent people from getting shot; cold breath can disarm a bomb; all are real police work. | |

If the summary of the community was “Building random, illogical writings.”(Fast & The Furious. :]), I would of exited this thread a long time ago. | |

Anybody with super powers would demand the attention of society, whether they liked it or not(obviously the reason why most heroes don’t reveal their identity). And if this person were in a world where the average person had super powers, then there would be nothing super about that person, they would be average, The only thing that would make them super would be their actions and remarkable deeds throughout the storyline, not the powers themselves. | |
