Did someone mention a Nigerian Superhero? Good Lawdamighty, where has gbade been?! Cheesy ok, ok calm down, *calms down*. I got a handful of 'em, take your pick:

#Baba Ijebu - powers, super pool shooter, controls the monetary flow in town like a bad mutha
his arch-villain would be Agbero a.k.a Shandi Collector

#Super Banti - powers: after eating 2 plates of ewa goin at Iya Lasisi's canteen, Banti gains surprising foul breath, incredible ability to mess at given intervals, and the whole shizzle  Cheesy Tongue
his one weakness: his girlfriend sikirat

# Kaptain Bains - he is beans personified. As human, dude is a politician, runs his own party (BDP- Beans Democratic Party, slogan : One Nigeria, Plenty Beans Cheesy). His alter ego's KB
Accessories - he's got beans-a-rangs, u know like Batarangs Cheesy
- he's also got bagerr sorry, pant of tricks with a diaper to add to that! Cheesy
- a casual glance to his anus would reveal the mess emanating serves as a propellant when flying Cheesy

Men, A Nigerian superhero will be a superstar in corruption, one who loots Nigeria`s money at the slightest opportunity and nothing is done about it, and still had the got to come out to contest for a presidential post and their cohorts, those non-learned who rule a whole state (names such as Adedib, & ohh sory Nairaland beauty and d beast, i forgot the second), and nothing is done,


the fact be say u know fit become naija superhero or else you do somethin bad,

We no dey remember n no dey encourage good things in our actions except if we go just dey say am, i.e we no dey practice wetin we dey preach

No superhero for naija, take kia guys in the house, i hail una, and to babes too, i dey sorry say i no hail u first but you no say na guys be number 1, no vex, i salute you too,

Sorry i don  even dey talk since,  naija superhero will be like me , sorry it is me, or i dey hear say you no know me?

Kai!

I don't old o!

No one remembers the original nigerian hero called Powerman??

If I was to create a new naija hero he would have:

The ability to defraud a villian of all his powers in 10 seconds. = superintellect

The ability to answer a question with a question  = mental confusion power

The ability to blend in any culture like a native  = Chameleon powers

The ability to say omo Ghana and make it sound like an insult. = Sonic manipulation

The ability to deceive myself that I am too much for everybody = illusion casting

The ability to be found in any country in any obscure part of the world. = teleporting

The ability to pack 50 kg in a suitcase and make it weigh 32kg at the airport = Mass/Gravity manipulation

His name would be Ojabokofo-Omo-Na-bouncing

Hmmm. Nigerian superhero?

because we are so supernatural-inclined, he shouldn't have any sci-fi or technological components

purely mystical or supernatural

so he would have to be either a conjurer or a summoner (or both)

He could be a man that calls on ancient spirits, or is posessed by them.

His powers could include teleportation, flight, invisibility, shapeshifting. These are all powers that we assume our witches and wizards posess.

Naruto is a good example of people superimposing their traditional beliefs on a contemporary setting to create unique superheroes appealing all over the world.

Actually, i have a lot of ideas and characters. If anyone could care to go to the "Toon" section, check up the thread "Do you draw manga/animé?", the last page. . . .you would see one of my characters i drew there. . .

Ok some of the xters-

Dreddlocks - the product of a secret government experiment due to the imminent threat of a civil war equally due to the activities of ethnic militias such as MEND in the Niger Delta and across the nation, supersoldiers are genetically engineered in an underground facility. Code-named "Dreddlocks", because of his rather unique Rastafarian locks, evuaren osagie (as he was named by one of the scientists) escapes into the real world after an accident results into a explosion killing more than half of the personnel at "Operation Ethnik". As he roams the real world, he is to learn there's more to the explosion as politics, ethnicity and a group called "The Third Eye" come in the mix. . . .

Whew, there! Now how do u like ma superhero?
