** Also, allusions to the Cosmic Cataclysm, an event that destroyed multiple alternate universes and rewrote reality in others.

* TheDogBitesBack
** An underpayed [[{{Mook}} henchman]] "forgets" to tell the BigBad that the KidHero Sola Flare is also capable of channeling the full power of the sun at will.

* RealityEnsues: There's several comics that expose the FridgeHorror that some of the sillier moments of comic history could mean for anyone actually living through them. There's the effect of continuity reboots, with a new super hero taking the place of the old one on a different Earth.

-->-- '''Randy Milholland'''
[[http://www.superstupor.com/ Super Stupor]] is a 2008 {{Webcomic|s}} written and drawn by Randy Milholland of ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'' fame. It's about super heroes and villains. They don't stop or cause crime, at least during their screen time. This is a SoapOpera, not an adventure.
The story is widely spread because there are LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters. At some point in the past there was a Cosmic Cataclysm, which merged two realities and started a few of the storylines. Some of their stories are serious, some not. It's dark enough to be interesting and funny enough to avoid {{Narm}}. It's pretty damn good.
----
!!''Super Stupor'' provides examples of the following tropes:
* AchillesHeel: Parodied, of course.
-->'''GrimReaper:''' Your enemy learned your one true weakness: [[StuffBlowingUp Blowing up.]]
* AliensMadeThemDoIt: Diamondback and her nemesis had sex because of [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust01022008.shtml extra-dimensional imps]]! They always force people to do stuff, and [[DatingCatwoman why else would lifelong enemies...]]
* BadassAbnormal: Punchline, who reportedly has some kind of superpower, but mostly fights crime with toy-based gadgets.
* BadSanta: [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust12242008.shtml Here]].
* BlessedWithSuck: Magic Eye's power of extracting truth from people [[spoiler:only works when his penis is inside them, so he can't actually use it except in dire emergencies or if the victim consents. ("You'd be unpleasantly surprised who does.")]]
* BoobsAndButtPose: [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust01252012.shtml Parodied]]. ("That pose offends me both as a woman and as someone who knows how spines work.")
* CosmicRetcon
** Time Peace's main ability. He primarily uses it to RetGone people.
** Also, allusions to the Cosmic Cataclysm, an event that destroyed multiple alternate universes and rewrote reality in others. For example, Rumble Bee is a survivor originally from a version of Earth that got destroyed, so reality "rewrote" her as having been from this one, complete with new family. [[RippleEffectProofMemory She can remember her old life too]], though.
* CrazyPrepared: Punchline, demonstrated in [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust12282010.shtml a strip,]] is shown to have puppets of another superhero, that he can produce (from HammerSpace, probably) and manipulate with his feet just in case his hands are bound.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Punchline, in [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust12282010.shtml the same comic]], explains to [[ArchEnemy The Anarch]] that [[NiceJobBreakingItHero forcing a Superhero to kill his girlfriend]] isn't necessarily the smartest thing to do.
* DatingCatwoman: The Hero Formerly Known as Good Ol' Boy and Lady Diamondback.
* DeadpanSnarker: Punchline
* DeathIsCheap: The scene where the GrimReaper complains that {{Super Hero}}es come back from the dead so often that collecting them doesn't even count towards his quota is the page image.
* DeconstructorFleet: Of superhero tropes.
* DeliciousFruitPies: Deathmaw's WeaksauceWeakness... so much so that [[RealityEnsues he's developed diabetes from eating too many of them.]]
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Jewish Rumble Bee has the bad luck to go on a date with someone who claims the CosmicRetcon that killed her mentor, a "documented event seen by billions," is a Zionist conspiracy.
* TheDogBitesBack
** An underpayed [[{{Mook}} henchman]] "forgets" to tell the BigBad that the KidHero Sola Flare is also capable of channeling the full power of the sun at will.
** And then there's the glorious subversion of StuffedInTheFridge, where the intended victim trounces the villain and continues to make his life a living hell after he gets off with no jail time.
* EmoTeen: Time Peace/Clockstopper/[[MyNameIsNotDurwood Clockpuncher]]
* ExpressiveMask
* FoeYay: See AliensMadeThemDoIt.
* FriendlyEnemy: "[[http://www.superstupor.com/sust01042008.shtml Remember when we used to just beat the shit out of each other? I miss those days]]."
* FunTShirt: A Franchise/{{Godzilla}} {{Expy}} is wearing a huge shirt with a "I'm with trampled" text and several arrows pointing down.
* GenreSavvy: Pretty much everyone. [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust04092008.shtml Example.]]
* HeroicComedicSociopath: Time Peace
* HumanPopsicle: [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust12212008.shtml The poor henchman.]]
* IntimidatingRevenueService: [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust04162008.shtml They even intimidate heroes.]]
* JustAKid: LampshadeHanging with Sola Flare. "It's like the younger and cuter they are, the worse they're gonna kick your ass."
* KnightInSourArmor: Punchline. Despite his inappropriate sense of humor and snarky attitude, he is much more serious about his duties to society as a superhero than most "respectible" heroes. Perhaps best showcased when it is revealed he single-handedly watched the city during [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust11282009.shtml Thanksgiving Break]].
* LittleMissBadass: {{Lampshaded}} with Sola Flare.
* LoonyFan: [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust12232007.shtml The hencmman.]]
* MinionWithAnFInEvil: [[http://www.superstupor.com/sust04072008.shtml This minion.]]
