Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

MODERATORS
Sometimes they show Superman as being all powerful from the time he was a baby. Sometimes they show him gaining his powers gradually as he ages.
I want a version where he's Clark Kent until he's around 30, and then gets powerful overnight.
You might enjoy the 1990s version of Superboy. He's more like 19, but it deals with suddenly having power before knowing who he is or what he believes in.
I really enjoyed the way they had Lois Lane call him "Smallville." That way, even after he moved to Metropolis, the show's name was relevant.
Wait a second, puts on costume, gets beat up or close to death enough to activate powers? Maybe he stays out of the sun most of his life because it makes him feel funny and doctors think its bad for him
I think it's from One Piece.
The man jumps in front of his SO when the pirates start shooting. He's unharmed.
"How did you know you were bulletproof?"
"I didn't know I was bulletproof. I knew you weren't."
Or maybe he does a Wiley Coyote move and runs out into open air, then realizes he's flying and falls.
