super hearing
Enhanced sonic perception
Super hearing is the fictional ability to hear sounds far beyond normal human range—detecting whispers from miles away, hearing through walls, or perceiving frequencies inaudible to ordinary ears.
A staple superpower in comics and science fiction, often paired with super strength or flight: Superman's super hearing picked up a cry for help across the city.
Sometimes called superhuman hearing or enhanced hearing.
