What Kind of Hero Are You? t-shirt

August 20th, 2008 • Posted by: Frank • Related • Filed Under •

Thinkgeek has a t-shirt up for sale that I thought was pretty cool. You can get it here.

If you were an evolved human, with your advanced genetic mutations and whatnot, what kind of powers would you have? This shirt asks the question, “What kind of hero are you?” and offers the following options (each with its own amusing little industrial-design illustration):

  • Telekinesis
  • Induced Radioactivity
  • Technopathy
  • Rapid Cell Regeneration
  • Pyrokinesis
  • Invisibility
  • Flight
  • Dream Manipulation
  • Clairvoyance
  • Cryokinesis
  • Telepathy
  • Intuitive Aptitude
  • Enhanced Strength
  • Phasing
  • Empathic Mimicry
  • Persuasion
  • Enhanced Hearing
  • Space-Time Manipulation
  • Healing
  • Mental Manipulation



    • Personally, we wish Monica’s Adoptive Muscle Memory were on there, but, let’s face it. We’re geeks. We’d pick Technopathy any day. But Space-Time Manipulation is nice….

    Black, 100% cotton shirt with the words, “What kind of hero are you?” printed in white with 20 different options below and a small Heroes logo at the bottom. The shirt is softer than our standard shirts and slightly tighter-fitting than indicated on our Sizing Info tab.
