I'm stealing this idea from my kids. During their annual vacation with old friends, in a lakeside cabin without electricity, they tend to play many games. And one they played this year essentially required them to invent an Only-Average-Superhero. For example, a superhero who isn't actually invisible: he's translucent. Or a superhero who can only hover vertically 4 feet above the ground. Or a superhero who can fly as fast as a station wagon, but not as fast as a plane.

So, I set you this task - Invent your own Only-Average-Superhero and write a story in which he saves, maybe not the world, but at least his small town or neighborhood block.
