Thermoman has numerous abilities. He is able to both heat and freeze things with "Thermobreath", and smash things easily with super strength. The latter is also a weakness, being uncontrollable when he is tired. Other powers include flight, superspeed, X-ray vision, resurrection of the dead, time travel and an ability to smell natural disasters and crimes taking place anywhere in the world. "Invulnerability" allows Thermoman to cut off parts of his own body, such as his own head, and then replace it. However, this invincibility is only effective when Thermoman believes he is invincible. In one episode, he begins to doubt his ability and thus temporarily loses this power, gaining unwanted and uncontrollable invisibility instead. Invisibility occurs when he is afraid, and the amount of parts of his body that turn invisible depend on how frightened he is. Thermoman can control minds and erase memories by putting his finger to their foreheads, and by giving them a "thermoblast". "Total erasure" is achieved by staring at a person, with the side effect of causing them to lose their hair. "Thermowelding" is the ability to weld a person's mouth shut; "Zip-it!" is a safer way of silencing people using a zipper; "Interspecies Interpreter", which allows Thermoman to communicate with animals excluding dung beetles; and "Miracle Spit", which is used to make plants grow quickly. As well as all of these powers, Thermoman on multiple occasions, orders additional trial powers from the magazine "Superhero Monthly". Other psychic powers include picking lottery numbers before seeing them on television via a series of quick mental calculations he can carry out automatically - although he is forbidden by Ultronian law to use this information. He can also turn the television on and off and rewind it just by waving his finger.
