Superman/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Sidekick]]: Kinda-sorta. More so than [[Supergirl]], any way.

* [[Status Quo Is God]]: Moreso than any other character. Some of this is due to [[Retcon|RetCons]] but Jimmy will grow up, shift from reporting to photography, do heroic things, then go back to being a cub reporter. He even recently became a [[Secret Keeper]] for Superman but thats been undone. They even still depict him in the cardigan sweater and bowtie much of the time.

* [[Unlikely Hero]]: He gets his occasional chance to shine, maybe a couple times a decade.

* [[Unlucky Everydude]]

* [[Enemy Civil War]]: Not all of Bizarro's duplicates get along with him.

* [[Me's a Crowd]]: All other Bizarros are duplicates of the original.

* [[Save the Villain]]: Superman often saves Bizarro World from destruction, even though it would make his life much easier to just let it be destroyed.

 

 

* [[A God Am I]]: In [[The Bronze Age of Comic Books]].

* [[Aliens Are Bastards]]: As Supergirl puts it: "You've told me that Lex Luthor is everything bad about humans. Well Brainiac is everything bad about aliens."

* [[Alien Invasion]]: Personified.

* [[Achilles' Heel]]: Granting him sentience weakens him, as it allows him to feel fear and doubt.

* [[Adaptive Ability]]

* [[Badass]]: Took out the whole then-current [[Justice League]] and then fought Superman himself to a draw in a fight to the death? Check.

* [[Breath Weapon]]: Eventually gained fire-breath.

* [[The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You]]: He's from Earth-Prime. ''Our world.'' [[Paranoia Fuel|That's right, he's on this planet right now.]] This works against him however in ''[[Blackest Night]]''.

** [[Fridge Horror|And who's to say those unkillable zombies won't target you next.]]

* [[Villain Decay]]: In his latest appearance Prime was taken down by a group of ''[[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Teen Titans]]'' despite the support of [[Legion of Doom|their other enemies]] and ''three'' clones of [[Superboy|Kon-El]]. Compare this to ''Infinite Crisis'' where he single-handedly beat up not only the much larger group of the Titans, but [[Justice Society of America|JSA]] and [[Doom Patrol]] as well.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: All of the time. In the classic villain style, he remains Smug up until the point where he no longer has the upperhand. And he's scared to death of [[The Flash|Bart Allen.]]
