"It is not our abilities that show what we truly are, it is our choices." The question is, what choices would we make if we had superpowers, unlike any other being? How do circumstances affect whether will you become a hero, villain, or something in between? How important is what kind of man you were before getting powers? How tough is it to carry not only yours but the burden of the world on your shoulders and would with time hero get tired and selfish?

Across many forms of storytelling, one of the essential parts of a good experience is the world that the author presents and builds across the length of the story. Whether those are fantasy worlds filled with dragons, goblins and fairies, many versions of dystopian nightmares, or sci-fi futures powered by spaceships and distant planets, the best writers can make you experience these places as if you are living in them. We discuss how Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece is the prime example of world building and share our opinion about Tolkien’s writing. Peter controverisally mentions Star Wars Universe and we debate what is the pinnacle of reading experience.
