Power Rubber Man

Representative Plastic Man
As far as superpowers go, this one’s a stretch. A character with a limited “Voluntary Shapeshifting” power, that results in his or her body acting like it is made of rubber. This can be a very versatile ability as long as the user is creative and not afraid to look silly, although the silliness potential means this tends to be a power given to “Fun Personified” characters. Although it can be an “Antagonist Ability”, seeing as how someone with this power doesn’t need to fight fair, characters with this ability are fairly likely to be heroic, especially in comic books. Such characters often have powers that work less like having a body with high elasticity and more like the ability to change shape at will, which makes shaping oneself into rubber balls, balloons and bands, flattening against walls, pretending to be a funny-colored rug, gliding like a parasail or folding oneself into a paper airplane all totally plausible… ~ Rubber Man – TV Tropes
