    Morrus. And that's me.

    Maintaining your secret identity

    I figure that's what I would do. I don't think I'd make a good detective, or always know what was the right thing to do. Even in emergency response situations, you'd need to find who's in charge and ask them what you can do to help. Otherwise you might just make things worse. If you get there...

    Maintaining your secret identity

    I guess we don't know if Superman sheds skin or hair like we do, sweats, fingerprints, etc. Though those things are easily reduced by a suitable costume.

    That's SIR Idris Elba

    Yeah, they aren't usually awarded for acting, although some actors use their platforms for service for which they do get awarded. While there are some that have been awarded for services to music, or film, or whatever, they are usually awarded for things like science, education, medicine...

    That's SIR Idris Elba

    No, most of them are people you’ve never heard of being awarded for charity works and the like. The ones you hear about are the famous ones—the actors and musicians and athletes—because they make good headlines.

    Maintaining your secret identity

    Yeah I suppose I should have clarified as the question becomes too broad if we make it a composite of every version of Superman ever. I guess for the purposes of this thread, the power set in the most recent movie makes sense to use. So flight, super toughness, speed, heat vision, x ray vision...

    Maintaining your secret identity

    I also wonder about Supes’ information gathering abilities. Clark Kent is a reporter with the resources and cover of a major newspaper. A lot of ‘plans’ in this thread assume a degree of information that the power set doesn’t lend itself to. Hell, I’d even have trouble basically navigating the...

    Maintaining your secret identity

    Remember we’re talking about you, not Superman. I’m not sure I could go on a murderous rampage even despite extreme provocation like that. And you’d basically be declaring war on the world at that point. You’d be subject to the worst propaganda and smear campaigns, everybody would hate you, it...

    Maintaining your secret identity

    Barely survives. And if you then put him somewhere away from the sun he’s not going to recharge. Even worse, put him somewhere with red sunlight. That’s what they did with Supergirl in the Flash movie—kept her locked up for years like that until the other superheroes rescued her. And if...

    That's SIR Idris Elba

    The Wire, Luther, the Thor movies, Suicide Squad, Kelvinverse Star Trek, one of those Fast and Furiouses, Pacific Rim, Prometheus, a lot of stuff. He’s very prolific—you’d recognise him if you saw him in something. He was also the favourite to be the new James Bond for a long long time but he’s...

    That's SIR Idris Elba

    I mean, he’s a rich guy. I’m sure if he wants a sword he can get a sword.

    Maintaining your secret identity

    Yes, real world today. You’re the only fictitious element.

    That's SIR Idris Elba

    Idris Elba has been awarded a knighthood (CBE) for his charity work with young people in the UK, US and Africa. For the Americans out there, a CBE is a civil award roughly equivalent in scope to to your Presidential Medal of Freedom, awarded by the head of state. Think honorary doctorate, but...

    Maintaining your secret identity

    So the premise: 1. You gain superpowers. For the purposes of this thread, you have Superman's power set and weaknesses--so pretty much upper tier, but with an achilles heel or two. 2. You are compelled, for whatever reason, to use your powers in public on a regular basis, in an obvious way...
