Very cool. Why super running though?

There are a few powers that I always associate with roaches:

Immunity (to a lot of stuff)
and Danger Sense (it's the antenae)

But if your guy doesn't have "roach powers" and instead just controls roaches, those don't need to be powers for him.

Recommended Advantage: Versatile, since this power seems very flexible in its use. For instance, if he were to make a shield out of roaches to block incoming attacks, or make a "cage" out of roaches to trap an enemy. these would use Deflect or Force Field respectively.

was super running removed or is it that Agility is at 3 and he's taken Athletics Running as skills? (3 being superhuman agility)
