Superheroes and heroines abound in television shows, movies, stories, and comics. Such fun it is for writers to think of a character with special powers to solve story problems. Every story has a problem the characters want to solve, and who better than a super person to swoop in and make everything right again?
Even superheroes have problems of their own. Mostly, they are able to solve them when we are watching a film or reading a book. What could this hero be thinking? Either use the text prompt provided or think of your own story idea.
This character is from a Pixabay.com download. At least, I don't think he is in any stories I know about. What might his special powers be? This could be a serious or comical answer.
This character looks rather sinister, and again I am unaware that this is anything but an
image from Pixabay. Did you realize some of the images I selected this month were AI generated? Yes, they were. And Pixabay has more AI generated clip art. If your students or group has access to computers, they could search for their own characters to write about.
Yes, this one is also AI generated art, but we know what this character does. So this might be easier for some writers to use for a writing warm-up.
Now the issue of twin heroines who have different special powers! What are their talents? How do they help others?
And of course, the coloring page for any one who would rather color. It could be used as a wordless prompt, also.
Thank you for reading,
