Ideally it'd be someone with a healing factor, so all my health issues would be cured, but I can't really think of anyone with a healing factor that hasn't had a horrific past. Wolverine is the obvious one, and while an adamantium skeleton would come in handy, it's not something I particularly need, and the process is just a wee bit traumatic. I'd also have to arguably lose all my memories for a time. I'd lose some beautiful moments in life. But to be pain-free, I'd definitely consider it. 

Otherwise, I'd go with Jean Grey. Telekinesis would be extremely convenient for everyday life, and you'd be able to fly, which would obviously be awesome. The telepathy is the monkey's paw, though, having to hear everyone's thoughts until you could control it, and even then, it'd be too tempting to abuse with loved ones, to know what they REALLY think. Major downside is the cosmic entity that just loves to manipulate your affairs. That's a lot of baggage to take into a relationship/workplace etc. 

Both choices also have the drawback of being in a hated minority, making daily life in itself dangerous. 

Wolverine is not pain free. He is in constant pain all day long as his body rejects the adamantium and then he heals. All day long.

 I forgot that admittedly important detail. :$ I'll go with Jean, then. I know she can control pain in others, wonder if she could do it for herself?

Can't get the highs without the lows.  I can deal with getting bitten by a spider, or getting caught in a gamma bomb explosion, or having an alien select me as his successor. 

Watching my parents shot down is beyond what I'd be willing to put up with.

lol

Says the guy who picked Sentry.

Sentry's about as mentally unstable as they come.  If he loses control for a second, he risks Voiding out and destroying everyone on the planet.

I keep wanting to say Groo 'cause I'm all for simplicity, but I'd also like ripped abs. If you want ripped abs, though, you're going to have to accept a tragic storyline. Dumb and doughy or shredded and f'ed up? hm

Still think Archie's the best answer, though. Definitely Archie.
