Theme

Where is my super suit? For this challenge you are to create your own super hero.

Some photo shopping is allowed if you have trouble with the title.

As an extra rule, take your time! Some of you can be super fast (me included) and I’ve noticed that the early bird usually catches the worm. So for this challenge I’m subtracting a point for anyone who posts within 24 hours.
It should hopefully level the playing field a little bit. Consider it an experiment, whoever wins is free to get rid of this rule if it doesn’t work out.

Rules

  • Follow the community’s rules above all else
  • One comment and image per user
  • Embed image directly in the post (no external link)
  • Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we’re all here for fun and learning)
  • Posts that are tied will both get the points
  • The challenge runs for 7 days from now on
  • Down votes will not be counted

Scores

At the end of the challenge each post will be scored:

Prize Points
Most upvoted +3 points
Second most upvoted +2 point
Third most upvoted +1 point
Hero +1 point
Comic Book Cover +1 point
Last two entries (to compensate for less time to vote) +1 point
Prompt and workflow included +1 point
Post within 24 hours -1 point

Hero points are awarded to the most fleshed out hero, (backstory, uniform, powers, etc.)

Comic Book Cover points are awarded to those that most look like a real comic book issue.

The winner gets to pick next theme! As always, have fun everyone!

    Prompt: Comic book cover, of a super hero in a dirty costume, lounging in front of the tv, drinking a beer, piles of trash litter the floor, the title “The Procrastinator” is written in bold font on top, 2d illustration --ar 3:4 --v 6.1

    "That’s me, Marcus Fleet. A.K.A. The Procrastinator, A.A.K.A. Mr. Took-You-Long-Enough. I never amounted to much. Graduated high school with mediocre grades, got a boring office job that barely pays the rent, and basically scraped by in life.

    It probably would’ve stayed that way if fate hadn’t decided to sucker-punch me right in the metaphorical groin. Through a series of unlikely events—mostly thanks to my general lack of commitment—I ended up with the power of foresight. Yeah, I can predict when a crime’s about to go down before it happens.

    The thing is, I just can’t muster the energy to actually do anything about it. Do you know how many heroes there are in this city? Most of the crimes I foresee will get handled anyway by Mr. Awesome Beam, The Bucktoothed Wombat, The Harmonica Twins, or one of those other glory hogs.

    So, I just relax until I’m really needed. You’d be amazed how much binge-watching and doom scrolling you can get done when you wait until the absolute last moment. Then, I show up, push the button, punch the bad guy, cut the wire—whatever quick fix is needed—and save the day. Sure, a few things have gone sideways when I got distracted, but hey, nobody’s perfect! Sometimes you just get caught up reading about magnetic dentures, fall down a Wikipedia rabbit hole, and next thing you know… well, oops.

    …Anyway, that’s my life. And I’ll keep telling you more after I shove The Viscous Violin into a vat of vittles in, like… 10 minutes?! Fu-"
