User blog:Berckley/New Warriors theory

Today I read official news about New Warriors on Marvel.com and discovered it's 30 minutes comedy (basically a sit-com), I didn't know that. I had my issues about this show, because I didn't wanted anymore superpowered teams with all this diverse powers, because there are already so many power sources in MCU and I thought shows like this would overcrowd it. So I read character descriptions and I thought:

What if nobody on New Warriors has superpowers. Squirrel Girls greatest quality is optimism, and she has squirrel powers? I think she just believes that, because she's fangirl (as stated) and we know from AoS that after Avengers many people claimed or believed to have ridiculous powers.

Mister Immortals description starts with "Craig can't die... or so he says". Basically the same, and besides, how could one prove that? I think he just survived some near-death situation and believed he's special. It also states that he's not doing anything, because he think's he has all time time in the world.

Night Thrasher is just vigilante with YouTube chanel, no powers in comics too. Microbe's powers are that he can talk to germs, which seems really hard to explain to prove.

Debrii description says she's low level telekinetic who can barely move a paper. Why include her in TV show than? Another believer I think. Casting director said they can't wait to bring those fiercly average superheroes to screen.

Only one I don't have theory about is Speedball, who seems to have kinetic energy he can't control.

I wouldn't think so if it wasn't comedy and I think they know they can't make good, original comedy series about diverse people empowering each other and learning how to work together. It's plot of almost every sitcom ever. If that's not the case, than I hope at least some of them will be Inhumans who got powers from fish oils. It would be awesome to see Inhumans outside ABC.
