If you woke up one day and the nurse asked you if you were John Hancock and you realized that there was no one who acknowledged your existence and that you had no friends, BUT you had super powers, what would you have done? It doesn't necessarily have to be the beginning of Hancock's life (it could also be when he had to go to jail, or when he was asked to stop the criminal, or when he was rescuing Angel and Ray, and etc..)
If I were to realize that I had nobody...then I'd do my best to establish my reputation as a hero and do my best to fulfill my job as a hero. I hate to disappoint people in general so I wouldn't wreck up the place when doing my heroic job like Hancock and do my best to keep it clean.

Well, if I were to be in that kind of situation, I would obviously freak out. But as time goes on I would eventually come to know about my superpowers just like Peter Parker with his Spidey abilities or Clark Kent with his flying skills and as you said, I would try to transform myself into a hero because that's what I look into myself when looking into the mirror.

With care from friends and family, I would be able to live a better life. However, if I was to be left all alone without anyone nearby me, then I would do my best alone to make my life better. Other people may look down upon me for being a loner, but I were to make my life better, than I would not get the undesired discrimination from other people.

I think thats a situation that you would not really know what to do unless you were in it. I mean I can see my self maybe getting more excited about being able to fly more then not having an idea of who I am. I don't know if I would be the all american superhero, but I can see myself taking advantage of those powers to use them in something productive. But knowing me if I even still had some kind of idea of who I am and not simply a gigantic void in my thoughts. I would definitely not care so much about responsibility, a lot like Hancock actually.

If I woke up as Hancock, I would try to get a job as a police or a crime fighter so I can earn a living and actually adapt to my new environment. Honestly, probably the second I wake up, I think I might drink a lot because I have no idea where I am and who I am so I would be quite depressed. Honestly I really can't blame Hancock for drinking all the time since some of us drink to forget. If i did not know who I was i would drink too... to remember I guess.

If I woke up and became hancock i would do some good works for earning money and live a life without getting in trouble and having to have a hard time gaining money. Sleep as i want to and get happy moments with the people i love and enjoy the life that i have. It wont happen but it is just great to hear or imagen by reading this post.

If I lost my memories but I got a superhuman power, I would become a famous/popular hero for the city. And as I travel through every parts of the city to help people, my memories would possibly come back or someone who acknowledges me would appear. I know it would be hard to immediately become a super hero, but I think it is the best way I can do.

If I was Hancock, I would have tried to start fresh by making new friends, enjoying life, and helping people. With my powers I would have stopped criminals because it is most useful in those matters. Being bullet proof, being able to fly, and being incredibly strong is the perfect combination of abilities to fight off robbers, killers, and psychopaths. In a more realistic version, Hancock is kind of like a detective in CSI: New York and I have always wanted to be one. But I am too scared of criminals and bullets to be a detective.

If I was Hancock and was all left alone, without friends or family to look out for me, I would try to make a new life for myself and try to blend with other people. However, in order to do that, I would not have used super power and not reveal it to other people, because I am afraid that the people would exclude me out and treat me differently from other people.

If I woke up and didn't know what was going on, I would first try to find people that knew me. Obviously I wouldn't find anyone except the woman, but I think that I would've tried to figure out who I was before anything else. After that, with my awesome powers, I would do whatever I wanted like fly to space and see the earth from there. And I would be a dictator of a country and control people and make them do whatever I want.

If I wake up one day and realize that there is nobody but that I have super power I would probably use it to make my life better. I would think that I am gifted but unfortunate at the same time since I have no one to support me. From then on, I will probably try hard to make friends and find my family.

Actually, if I were to be Hancock one day, I think I would explore the galaxy. I would just fly to other solar systems to find alien life forms, if there are any, or I'd look for more planets with lifeforms that inhibited it. I would be interested to just explore with my powers. And every now and then, when I have to eat, or wanna see some humans, I'd go back to earth to full fill my human side necessities.

If I've realized that I have such super power as Hancock, I would travel around the world and give punishment for those criminals who get away with their crimes. Then, I'm going to destroy Collegeboard for giving so much stress to highschool students, including myself. I don't know, there are so many things that I would do if I were Hancock.

I think I would be pretty upset if I found out that nobody was there to claim me. I would wonder if I was a tragic orphan hero like Batman maybe. Like Batman, I would try to make the most out of my powers but I wouldn't be too out there about it. I would definitely kick some butt though.

If I had superpowers and no one around me, then I think I would try to live quietly. I would not try to use my powers much because everyone would notice and I do not like getting so much attention. To me, having superpowers is not really special but perhaps annoying to me because it is most likely to attract trouble. However, it would be selfish not to use powers to defeat bad people for society, and I guess I would use them only to help others. I would also try to find someone who knew me before I lost my memory and can tell me who am I.
