Superpower togetherness

On the heels of the success of “Heroes,” it looks like more superheroes could be headed to the small screen.

If you read today’s TV page in The Gazette, you know that Diane Ruggiero, a co-executive producer of “Veronica Mars,” is working on a pilot for an action comedy revolving around two best friends who gain superpowers. But they have to be together for their powers to manifest.

I have vague memories of a comic book with a similar premise. I think it was an estranged couple who had to come together for their powers to work. Anyone else remember this or am I making it all up in my head?
