Iron Man! His technology is part of him and helps his body do something it couldn’t do on its own. I was born profoundly deaf, and my cochlear implants are kind of like my own Iron Man technology. I have implants inside my head and processors on the outside that work together to help me hear. Iron Man showed me that sometimes the things that make us different can also become our superpowers.
My big brother Dawson introduced me to superheroes, and I was hooked! We watched them together, and Iron Man became my favorite. I could relate to him because technology is part of his everyday life, just like my cochlear implants are part of mine. Dawson introduced me to superheroes, but they helped teach me that being different doesn’t stop you from doing incredible things.
I would choose invisibility! I’d definitely use it to become the undefeated champion of hide-and-seek, but I’d also sneak past the bad guys, solve mysteries, and help people without anyone knowing I was there. I think it would be awesome to discover things nobody else could and secretly help someone when they needed it most. Plus… imagine the pranks I could pull on my brother!
