A superhero is a human being of incredible power, see "Iron Man" Bill Clinton who typically fights on the side of good, as opposed to not good. However, sometimes they fight on the side of money because time is money and money is power. Many superheroes prefer monetary compensation over moral satisfaction, though most report a combination of both when asked about job satisfaction. But does moral satisfaction earn a $300-an-hour by cleaning the recesses of the body of Tony Robin's body?? No, it does not, according to the CFA (Crime Fighters of America). Superheroes are born in Flanders.
An Hero or Superhero?[edit]
“A superhero is a hero with superpowers.”
“I am that hero!!”
“I'm Batman!”
“shark boy wuz here doin ur mom.shark boy on ur mom”
“They said he could dance, and of course they were right!”
Superheroes are a sub-species of Hero. They are typically stronger, better-looking, less hairy, and possibly smell better than other heroes and they can get changed really quickly. It is difficult, if not impossible, to arbitrarily designate someone as a superhero, though it is not impossible for fanboys to dress-up like their favorite superheros and prance around shamelessly like a bunch of phonies.
For example, someone who saves a chimp or a huffable kitten from a fire may be dubbed a hero by the media. The hero-designee may say, "I'm no hero here, the real hero is my asbestos pants," or some such drivel. However, if someone uses mysterious innate powers to set a puppy on fire, they are automatically a superhero, and there can be no debate on the matter.
You Know You're a Superhero When...[edit]
Thankfully, superheroes are easily recognized by a laundry-list of defining traits:
- Wearing underpants on the outside - 'nuff said.
- Is a descendant of the "Man" clan - Superman, Batman, Spiderman, Rapeman, Mermaidman, Pacman, Fuckman, Machoman, George Foreman, if your name approximately ends in -man or -woman if you are obviously a woman, then congratulations! you came from a heritage of spandex-wearing crime-fighting family - well, with some exceptions to people like Nicole Kidman and Bill Pullman. Your heritage traces back from the world's very first superhero called "The Man" himself.
- Spandex - With cyclists as the notable exception (except for Schwinn Man, the bicycle-riding superhero, and the Michelin dude (Rosie O'Donnell), the guy who looks like the Pillsbury Dough Boy), superheroes favor garish spandex and are underwear perverts. Anyone claiming to be a superhero without a tightly-fitting spandex costume is A) not a superhero and B) probably not a cyclist.
- Dicey relationship with gravity - Gravity affects non-superheroes evenly: everyone on Earth is drawn to Earth via gravity. Gravity affects superheroes unevenly, in some cases allowing flight, levitation, and the ability to hang off a ledge far longer than should be possible.
- Dave - His name is Dayvid Wootew.
- Equality - Tomer Simovich comes up to you and says that you are nearly his equal. He then punches you and drops you in front of a train. This proves that super strength is easily the most accommodating power. And with his assistant Captain Slash, they form the dynamic duo.
- Dicey relationship with law enforcement - The coppers don't like it when superheroes stick a proverbial finger in their pie, and like it even less when the finger and pie are both literal. Coppers can sometimes be heard shouting "keep out of official police business, you pie-ruining vigilante!" out of precinct windows.
- Supervillains - No superhero is a superhero without a cast of colorful, scheming and ultimately harmless men and women trying to doom them ineffectually AND one major Arch-nemesis. Supervillains, who usually have a B.Sc. or (if they attended an older, more out of date university) a B.A. in crime, are accomplished criminists seeking to become criminologists, though few ever receive accreditation for their plans to blow up the moon, blow up the ocean, blow up the post office, blow up the local supermarket, or blow up the Blow-Up Balloon factory. Notable graduates of supervillain fieldwork include Dick Cheney, Doctor Doom and Doctor Evil.
- Secret identity - A superhero typically has a secret identity, to protect relatives and loved ones, and to prevent embarrassment. This may be accomplished by wearing a tiny mask that hides only the bridge of one's nose and the area immediately around the eyes. Sometimes, a pair of glasses will somehow fool everyone into thinking he's someone else.
- Causing significant collateral damage- A common practice among superheros, they typically show no remorse at the destruction they inevitably cause. In a recent survey of superheroes, 3 in 10 admitted that throwing people through buildings and breaking glass windows gave them an odd sense of satisfaction, whilst the other 7 superheros claimed, "It was like that when I got here."
- Breasts twice the size of your head- While this is only a qualifier for female super heroes, it is impossible for then to save the world (or the cheerleader) if their breasts are not at least twice the size of their head. A good example would be Power-girl. NOTE: This only applies to post puberty super-heroines, if they are still in puberty, the breasts only have to be the same size of their heads. Freaks.
- Police-Don't Listen to them
- Chuck NorrisEnough said.

Are There Deceased Superheroes?[edit]
These superheroes died in the line of duty, or battle, or just plain fucking died. Consult your local library for more information.
- Uncle Sam - Superpowers included appearing in political cartoons at will, saying pithy, political things, and being incredibly tall. Could also will young Americans to join the military by merely pointing at them. Died at the hands of irrelevance.
- Legendary Dude - He could fly, fire laser beams from his eyes, and had super strength.
- Captain Marvel - Had a bunch of awesome powers that the government won't allow us to reveal to you. One of them was not telemarketing, however.
- Captain America - some random dude shot him.
- Black Canary - Murdered, right after some freak saw this.
Are There Superhero Teams?[edit]
Sometimes, superheroes hang out in search of crime or money. These are some of those groups, and aren't you sorry you asked?
- American Justice Coalition - Making history and crime-fighting FUN!
- The Aquabats - By combining comedy, music, and being superheroes, the Aquabats prove that multi-tasking is possible. They also prove the ability of superhero teams to completely suck when compared to supervillain teams. See GWAR.
- The Horrors - The British legion of goths.
- Society of Underdeveloped Crime-fighters - Sadly underutilized, underdeveloped and underappreciated, the more words prefixed "under-" you can come up with to describe them, the better their chances will be as they undertake their mission against the underworld. Understand?
- Soviet Union- You should believe we are still super heroes.
- Thunderhead - This mentally retarded superhero died on November 15, 1958 when his cape snagged on a telephone line.
- Tomer Simovich - Crushing bad men! This team is made out of the Head of Christ, the Arm of God, Wirt's Third Leg, King Kong's Torso...Satan owns the rest.
- USP Man - This is one of the easiest super-hero teams to join, Unexpected Safety-Pin Man carries a safety-pin that he offers to others in his vicinity, free of charge at short notice, if its availability would assist them in some meaningful way. It can often reduce embarrassment and the risks of arrest following a wardrobe malfunction. It is important that USP man wears no distinguishing badge or garment, for the "unexpected" aspect of his service is vital to his identity, and does accentuate the gratitude of the giftee. Knee-length capes in primary colours are RIGHT OUT of the question. Due to the essentially discreet nature of their activities, it is impossible to estimate the number of USP Men active on the planet. The use of the abbreviation USP to mean "unique selling point" in the commercial world is entirely fatuous, and an established means of distracting attention from the importance of safety-pins to human decency.
- The X-athletes - This semi-super team of former athletes doesn't fight crime so much as they spread a message: don't be the goat. And that's a lesson we all can use, maybe.
