I have read your solution, and it doesn't address the long-term issue of 'the heroes do not have invincible eardrums'.
Someone with weather control is also considerably more obvious, and doesn't make everyone's next post 'some version of falling over or resisting falling over, then clutching their burst eardrums'.

Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

I just gave a solution and you ignored it. If you're complaining about speedsters then you don't know much about the Flash, he runs at light speed and is a prominent member of the Justice League. his sonic boom would be no different than someone with wind powers and the ability to create hurricane force winds. I see problems with the Hulk in a team setting than this since he can crush almost anything in sight if he loses control and he is a part of the Avengers
The Flash essentially ignores physics, rather than trying to leverage them into powers. Once using physics, it's a good idea to make sure you understand what you're suggesting--maybe not to a degree level, but at least to a 'I checked the basic physics' one.
Once you start going on about sonic booms... well, I've checked the measurements, and at point blank it's basically something heavy slamming into your entire body, along with a literally deafening noise. This is just by going past.
Unless one of their spells is 'knock over and/or deafen everyone in the environment', that is not an issue. Power source has no bearing on end result.
I think you're alone in not seeing a problem with it. And... we're just paying attention to what a sonic boom is (answer: shockwave, which is also the dangerous thing about explosions). Or, importantly, a deafening noise right next to you. Guns damage hearing for a reason.
Hopefully not 747-level thrust, at least. :/

THE ROBOT
Akira blinked as she was pointed to, being demanded to advertise. The teacher was saying that she shouldn't join the club, though... who was she supposed to listen to? This was the only club that was looking for people and her instructions from her creators were to join a club. It was inappropriate to ignore a teacher, however, and this was causing quite a conundrum. In the end, it was resolved through the simple expedient of going for the highest source of instructions in her life: when there was a conflict between social obligations, and her mission, then the mission took precedence.
This meant that the robot stepped forwards to go and stand by the bunnygirl. How was she supposed to advertise? It seemed to be by showing a lot of skin, if the example Rei and Hanako were setting was accurate, and this left her only one option: without any fuss, Akira divested herself of coat and hat, already baring the entirety of her arms. Then, the girl sat on the table and began to take off shoes and her rather confusing socks.

I've rather... lost interest in this. Sorry.
A sonic boom is created simply by moving at supersonic speeds--stopping or starting makes no difference. Just moving past causes a sonic boom, as the 'boom' is people hearing the shockwave.
Interestingly, this means that he'd never hear one, as it's happening away from him at all times.

The sonic boom of an aircraft overhead--and not coming in to land at that point--can be enough to dislodge tiling from houses. From a person in the middle of a group, there is a rather large chance that the undirected shockwaves would cause collateral damage (though probably not so badly as what happens when a normal person is moved at such speeds) and/or knock everyone over. Noise damage: bullets are generally supersonic, and they damage hearing.
Showing up at supersonic speeds, from a scientific standpoint, is a bad idea if you have any concept of teamwork.

Phantom
Rachel--she hadn't quite gotten the hang of thinking in codenames; largely because their purpose was to protect your identity, and hers was both incredibly obfuscated and trivial to find at the same time--had spent the simulation thus far staying out of the way, and watching carefully for an opportunity. This was mostly fighting, and her advantage there was surprise, which would only work once. The villains would definitely get a lot more cautious once they knew someone with her abilities was creeping around the battlefield, so she didn't want to waste the single chance at taking them unaware.
An opportunity presented itself in the stalemate between Shocker and Magnetar: neither could get anything past the other, and all it would take is a little outside interference to tip things in their favour. The invisible woman carefully manoeuvred herself into position and then struck, hitting out at the back of Shocker's head (well, more like the neck). There was the obvious benefit of disorienting and stunning him for long enough that Magnetar could win their little fight, but there was also the possibility of knocking him out entirely. Hopefully, in either case, it would be written off by the villains as Magnetar overcoming him than the logical leap to 'an invisible person hit the guy'.

I suppose explaining the inaction of an invisible character should be pretty easy... :O
