We all wish we had superpowers. However, most of us can't scale tall buildings, move faster than a speeding bullet, or use extra sensory perception caused by an accident with acid. Technology can help make up for our shortcomings, though. Here are some gadgets to make you feel more like the superheroes who'll be flying, fighting, and smashing their way through this summer's movies.

Carhammer
Hulk: Emergency Car Hammer
Hulk Smash! And now you can, too. In case you get into a car accident and your gamma-radiated DNA isn't working, you'll be glad you can smash your way through a window with this little device's dual cast-metal hammerheads. The Hulk shows his true colors in theaters June 13th.

Batman: Utility Towel
When Batman goes to the beach, he always makes sure he's got this connected to his sand-proof utility belt; the shade of black matches his cape and cowl perfectly. While you may not be cool enough to have a utility belt, the little latch on the corner of the Utility Towel lets you hook it onto anything. Say hello to "The Dark Knight" on July 18th.

Hellboy: Really Big Lighter
Think you can handle cigars the size of Hellboy's? You're going to need a lot of lighter, then. This behemoth will do. Warning: Pyros may experience high levels of pleasure followed by a urge to burn things. Saving the world will be a hell of a job at your local theater on July 11th.

The Mummy: Rubber Band Tommy Gun
Rick O'Connell's weapon of choice in "The Mummy" movies is the tommy gun. Maybe it's yours as well, during cube warfare on slow Fridays.But we encourage you to use this version, which is modified to fire rubber bands. A new evil awakens on August 1st.

The X-Files: Pocket Microscope
Agents Mulder and Scully are always ready to tackle a crime scene. With this Pocket Microscope, you can investigate your own scenes. The truth is out there; maybe now you can find it! Great for finding the minutest details that no one else can spot. You'll want to believe on July 25th.
