You possess superhuman strength and toughness.
Used by Mark Collins, Created by Redchigh.
( )

Together with Mark's grit power, Mark resembles bodybuilders that probably went a little too far.

His bones are 3x denser than a normal human, but even his skin seems highly resistant to damage, allowing him to rip, tear, and lift things far beyond human limits.

One of the first things to kick in with the genetic cocktail that is Mark Klent, his father convinced him to keep his hefty brawn a secret. In fact, he had quite the sheltered life alone with his dad on the farm in Iowa.
