A more comprehensive and detailed treatment of superpowers would be found in a supers sourcebook, should Chaosium choose to publish one.

Thanks for the answer.
I'd be interesed in writing something for BRP one day. I'm just waiting to see the game and what's been tweaked.
Some more "Supers" related BRP questions:
WoW Superworld used a different Damage bonus forumula (+1d6 for each 10 points of STR OR SIZ over 14, not both). Just wondering, but how will that worl in BRP? If you use the normal Damage bonus, then Superstrong character won't be doing anywhere near the damage they did in Superworld capping off at +3 or 4D6 (yeah, hardly "wimpy") if they put all their Hero Points into STR.
Has the cost for stats been tweaked (like sat 2-1 for STR), has the Hero Point formula been changed (from sum of stats), or do we just live with the lower damage?
On a related note, based on WoW it was impossible for any character to be able to lift a Tank (SIZ 150). Will BRP use the same SIZ chart as Superworld (WoW) or a different scale (like the stand alone Superworld RPG) so that we can get comicbook level heroes?
Is there a note for dialing up/down the power level for heroes. Something like 2x Hero Points for more powerful characters, and so forth?
