* For a brief period in ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1987'' both Hippolyta and Diana were acting as ComicBook/WonderWoman, and the mother and daughter teamed up together. Of corse ContinuitySnarl/DonnaTroy is (almost) always Diana's adopted sister and ComicBook/WonderGirl Cassie Sandsmark was Diana's great-aunt originally (Cassie's brother ComicBook/{{Ares|DC}} is Diana's maternal grandfather) and while they're still related it's become more muddled just how post-Flashpoint.

* The family in ''WesternAnimation/NormanNormal'' ...sans the titular character.

-> ''"WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles is not just a superhero movie—it is a movie about a family that just ''happen'' to be superheroes."''

* The trope image and quote are about the Parr family, otherwise known as ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles''.

* Team Superman, comprising [[ComicBook/{{Superman}} Clark]], [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} his cousin]], [[ComicBook/Superboy1994 his clone]] and ComicBook/{{Steel}}. After ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'', it includes [[Characters/SupermanJonathanSamuelKent Clark's son]].

* ComicBook/TheFlash Family, which comprised Barry Allen, his nephew, his [[ComicBook/{{Impulse}} grandson]] and his great-niece for a time pre-''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}}''.

Many {{Super Team}}s are made up of unrelated individuals who chose to answer TheCall, others at least share a MassSuperEmpoweringEvent or some form of YouAllShareMyStory. Then there's super teams that arise from, or create their own, Super Family Team. These heroes or villains may have a familial relationship before they gain their powers and choose to stay together because they know and trust each other. On the other hand, a team of unrelated supers may become a super family around a core couple (usually TheHero and TheChick) while the rest become TrueCompanions and family by extension. This second one is especially common for the SecretProjectRefugeeFamily or social outcasts made up of unrelated experimental subjects.

** Though Monet is the only one who's stood the test of time, the whole St Croix family was heavily featured in ''ComicBook/{{Generation X}}.'' Monet, her sisters Claudette and Nicole, and their brother Marius, aka BigBad Emplate, are all quite powerful individually and have the power to combine into all new people who are more than the sum of their parts. Then there's Penance, though we're not sure how her current incarnation is related.[[note]]Penny's complicated even by comic standards, but you might want to skip the details if you've never read Generation X and ''ever'' plan to, we're talking ''that'' class of spoiler. [[spoiler:The Monet we knew for most of Gen X was a fusion of Claudette and Nicole, hence some of her odder moments and habits. The true Monet had been transformed into the until-then-mysterious Penance, who could not talk and had difficulty otherwise communicating, and whose WolverineClaws-level razor-sharp skin makes ''Rogue''' seem to have minor problems in the touching-people department. Not long after her identity was revealed, the twins took her place in the Penance body so Monet could be free; ''this'' is the Monet of the rest of Gen-X, and nowadays X-Factor. Eventually the girls were freed of the Penance body, and have presumably lived happily ever after since their departure from the story. The Penance body should not have remained, but it did, left behind as an empty shell... and then it turned out to be not so empty]]. This is the Penance (and "Hollow," when Speedball was calling himself Penance during his [[DorkAge "Bleedball" phase,]] as per the OneSteveLimit) that currently exists, and she should ''probably'' be considered the fifth St. Croix sibling, as she is either [[spoiler:the Penance body, originally created from Monet, having gained sentience, or a new personality shoved in there as can only happen, as far as we know, through the St. Croix's family "merge and be more than the sum of your parts" ability.]][[/note]]

To keep this trope from being a recounting of "these two supers [[SuperpowerfulGenetics had a kid with powers]]", at least two relations [[TheyFightCrime have to fight crime]], explore {{Alternate Universe}}s or some other team-based activity.

*** Scott's time-displaced children Nathan, Nate, and Rachel. (Yes, Nathan AND Nate.) Alternate universe versions of the same guy; lack of TimeTravel shenanigans means Nate Grey/[[Comicbook/XMan X-Man]] is much younger than Nathan Summers/Comicbook/{{Cable}}.
*** Note that this means Scott and Jean have three kids... but each is an only child. [[TimeyWimeyBall Alterations to history]] means ''each'' grew up in a future that is incompatible with the other two.

* ''The Incredible Hulks'' is about the ComicBook/IncredibleHulk and all his Hulk-like friends & relations: ComicBook/SheHulk, Red She-Hulk, A-Bomb (Rick Jones), his son Skaar, and another She-Hulk which is his daughter from an alternate future. ComicBook/RedHulk is off on his own most of the time, so he's not generally involved.

* The [[Characters/BatmanAndBatFamily Bat-Family]] is an extended family of choice (save Damian, who actually is Bruce's biological son). Bruce has officially adopted [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick]], [[Comicbook/RedHoodTheLostDays Jason]], [[ComicBook/RedRobin Tim]] and [[ComicBook/Batgirl2000 Cass]] (the latter two only prior to the Flashpoint reboot). That's not counting various other heroes who, while not Bruce's wards, are still TrueCompanions and part of the group dynamic. There's a reason Bruce is such an InformedLoner.

** ''ComicBook/RenewYourVows'' begins with an AlternateUniverse ComicBook/SpiderMan (who is still married to Mary Jane, unlike the Spider-Man of the main Marvel universe) retiring as a superhero to become a FamilyMan. Certain circumstances had him come back into action as Spider-Man, but this time the rest of the family joins him, with Mary Jane as Spinneret and their daughter, Anna-May, as Spiderling.
