Powers and Abilities
Harpy
As the Harpy, Betty had superhuman strength, stamina, speed and durability which were enough to fight the Hulk with. She also had big Bird-like wings from her back that she used to fly at high speeds through the air and perform aerial attacks. In addition to that, she also had razor sharp Talons which were so strong that she could use them to cut through and tear apart rock, metal and carry heavy objects.
Red She-Hulk
As the Red She-Hulk, Betty has enormous superhuman strength, stamina, durability, and a healing factor that allows her to easily survive what would normally be fatal injuries to humans, such as stab wounds to the leg and abdomen by Wolverine's claws. Similarly to her ex-husband, Betty's strength level is so vast that it warps the laws of physics even further than standard for other characters in the same fictional continuity, for example allowing her to punch her way through dimensional barriers between different universes, and was far stronger than the regular She-Hulk. This level of power did not last however as she was then later defeated easily by She-Hulk.She shares the Red Hulk's ability to absorb energy, such as the gamma radiation from other Hulks, thereby reverting those beings to human form, and at least temporarily boosting herself. According to Banner, there were plans to remove this ability through the same process that removed the Red Hulk's based on the fact that this ability would eventually kill her. Also like her father, Red She-Hulk has yellow blood, produces yellow energy from her eyes when angry, and can discharge energy by touch. Red She-Hulk can be reverted to human form if she is suddenly startled or frightened, though she can revert to her Hulk form at will.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“The shadow of a mighty Negro past flits through the tale of Ethiopia the shadowy and of the Egypt the Sphinx. Throughout history, the powers of single blacks flash here and there like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness.”
—W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
“The art of using moderate abilities to good advantage is a way of stealing the esteem of others, and often brings a man into greater reputation than does real merit.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
