Has Any Superhero Ever Had The Ability Of Complete Silence As Their Superpower?

[LockardTheGOAT]

As in, they literally have the advantage of not making any noise whatsoever? And perhaps they have such influence over sound that any object they touch or operate makes no noise either? Imagine kicking someone's door in and not having to worry about making any noise. Or firing a gun (any gun) and the gunshots being completely inaudible. Or driving any type of vehicle, small or large, and making zero sound. All of these things alone would make you an extremely dangerous adversary. You could literally run up on someone and they wouldn't know you were there until it was too late (unless they happened to turn around for some other reason and spot you.)

Has there ever been a superhero with this ability? I don't keep up with super hero movies generally, so I wouldn't know.

When I read the thread title, my first thought was "what a useless fucking power", but you provided some solid uses.


I can't think of anyone that uses sound in that way though. It's usually about being loud, not silent.

Not a bad concept for a villain. He could use silence to run up on Superman and stab him with a blade made of Kryptonite then it's GG k thx bai Clark Kunt.

 

[I Am Legion]

Would love all women to have this power. Especially on car trips.

Not a hero and not quite the same but -

Maybe I shouldn't have wrote "superhero" in the thread title. I really just mean anyone with a superpower, be it hero or villain.

 

[JohnOates]

Same here. Opened up this thread and thought it was a no goer. However, you provided some good premises and I'm in!

Would be good for a villian too.

Came here to post this^

That's a great superpower. Makes farting in public so convenient.

The Berry Cat Woman had this power over audiences.

Complete silence is what saves the universe from Black Bolt's quasi sonic scream.

A whisper destroys cities and a full on scream destroys planets so he has spent a lifetime developing the control to not utter a sound.

God I loved that episode when I was a kid. The fight was so eerie.

 

[TheRuthlessOne]

You pretty much described Batman

Its not a "super power" but being silent is his trademark

 

[Ichibanner]

Being "silent but deadly"? That describes me after pitchers of IPA and a nacho plate.

An advanced ninja?

But that's through the mastery of stealth., not through scientifically being able to mute out sound through anything that you touch.

Yeah no science behind it

But he can sneak up or vanish even in front of people like Superman who have increased senses

 

[IloveTHIS]

Cant Flash move at pretty much the speed of light? Light travels much, much, much faster than sound. So technically he could run up on you and stab or do whatever to you and youd be dead long before you heard any sound whatsoever.

Would be an eerie Villain/Killer if well written
