Isn't it funny how some superheroes have to recite a word, line or verse to change into their super human form and others don't? Here are a few that do:

Captain Marvel
Isis
Web Woman
He-Man

Can you think of any others?

Not sure about Web Woman but all of the other ones are magic-based, so that probably has something to do with it...

How about Miracleman? ("Kimota")
And then there's always "Wonder Twin powers....activate!"

Well Heman won't work unless he has the sword :grin:

and How about Mumm-Ra ? "Ancient Spirits of Evil, transform this decayed form to Mumm-Ra, the ever-living!" :grin:

Then there's always Johnny Quick who gets his super-speed from reciting the mathematical equation "3X2(9YZ)4A"...

In addition to Captain Marvel, you should include Mary, Capt Marvel Jr and Black Adam. I think Jessie Quick used to use the same equation as her dad Johnny to use her speed powers. And there was Apache Chief on Superfriends. He said, "Inyuk-chuk."

I never saw that show. The only reason I know He-Man is 'cos my kid brother watched it. I'm not an 80s baby. :no:

Well, I could say the same thing about you and 70s shows, but that's a discussion for another thread.:wink_y:

BTW...I have seen most of those shows at least once, b/c like I said, I have a kid brother who watched that stuff. I really didn't care for them.
