Most Common Super Power - Television Tropes & Idioms

Hobbes: Is Amazon Girl's super power the ability to squeeze that figure into that suit?
Calvin: Nah, they can all do that.

— Calvin And Hobbes

But above all, most importantly, if you're going to be a girl who kicks ass and takes names, it is absolutely imperative that you be really, really hot.

— Nostalgia Chick

Whether the hero is a mutant, an Amazon princess or an alien humanoid, if the character is female, she is straining against the bonds of gravity... but not in a flying sort of way. This most common of metahuman attributes seems to range from a D-cup size upward for any character just past the onset of puberty (a time when many comic-book characters start to manifest superpowers). Usually, their assets are less pronounced when they wear cotton or rayon street-clothes than in their more usual attire of spandex, latex or leather. You'd think this would create an effective disguise, but no.

Of course, this may fluctuate under different artists.

See also Gag Boobs and Gainaxing. If you need Mundane Utility for this superpower, it can be made into Victorias Secret Compartment. In order to show what they got, these ladies will usually have costumes that can best be described as Stripperiffic.

It should be noted that outside fiction, this 'power' is uncommon, but not necessarily 'unrealistic' - women matching this kind of physique do exist in real life, but not to the extent that is often depicted in comic books and other such media.

Compare Form Fitting Wardrobe.

Joking about physical endowments aside, the most common superpower is actually flight.

Examples

Anime and Manga

Seras Victoria from Hellsing. Apparently, getting bitten by a vampire also increases your cup size by a few letters.
Lampshaded in one of Tokyopops' "Rising Stars of Manga" stories:
Buxom Villainess: What are you travelling with that flat-chested loser for?
Somewhat Less Buxom Heroine: F-flat chested?! I'm a C-cup!
Buxom Villainess: (comforts heroine) I know, you poor thing.
The Sekirei in Sekirei may have a variety of Elemental Powers, but the most common power? The boobs. Every single Sekirei but the loli and the few men have huge ones.
Izumi Curtis of Fullmetal Alchemist. She has no problem showing it, either. Olivia Armstrong from the manga, too. An Omake Lampshades this by stating that her only family resemblance to Alex is that they're both too 'busty' to button their uniforms completely. There's also Winry, Riza Hawkeye, Maria Ross, and quite a few minor or joke characters. And Trisha may dress in a simple and modest way, you can still see that she has good 'arguments'! "Men should be buff! Women should be vavoom!"
Most of the females in Code Geass come in one of two flavors: Either one of a couple of Moe Moe lolis or, more frequently, women who may often wear tight/little clothing to show off their impressive figures.
One Piece. One of the recent colorspreads shows everyone's first appearances. Compare how Nami looks there to what she actually looked like back in volume 1. Jeebus. Word Of God states that she is maturing. Well, she was just 18.
- Although a change of style would be the more logical and simple explanation.
Several characters in Mahou Sensei Negima have this power, most notably Kaede and Mana, two of the most well-endowed students in Negi's class, as well as two of the strongest. Not to mention that the majority of the characters are around fourteen years old! It's not necessarily unrealistic, though. Puberty doesn't always wait, and in some cases starts in the single digits. Besides, Class 3-A runs the whole spectrum, from the "Puberty, what's that?" Narutaki Twins to the two mentioned above. In chapter 235, Natsumi points out that this seems to be common in the magical world.
Rushuna Tendo from the anime Grenadier puts this trope to practical use by using her cleavage to store extra bullets.
Divergence Eve. All of the major and minor characters are ridiculously endowed, with main character being first or second biggest. Only one of the minor female characters isn't given this ability. She's a android that looks like a little girl.
Michiko from Michiko To Hatchin. And she's not shy about it either.
You don't need to look further than the cover of Fairy Tail's first volume to find some impressive examples of both this trope and Fan Service. Not that the manga behind the cover is short on them. There are about two female mages with modest cup size - in the series with Loads And Loads Of Characters.
Most female characters in Soul Eater, Maka being the notable exception, has above average large breasts. Perhaps not that big compared to most examples on this page, but enough to be quite noticeable. And distracting.
Yuko Ichihara of xxxHoLic (and Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle) is rather ridiculously large-breasted, especially in contrast with the waifishly stylized physique all the series' characters possess. Seriously, half of her maybe one hundred pounds must be bosom.
Cutey Honey. Her boobs are even praised in the theme song.
Fujiko from Zettai Karen Children, who uses her powers to remain looking like a pert 20-year-old, despite being in her 80s.
Bleach. Rangiku Matsumoto, Orihime Inoue, Halibel, Nel's true form... the creator ain't named "Titty" Kubo for nothing. With the exception of Rukia, it often seems like viewers can tell how important a female character is supposed to be by her cup size.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann's Yoko has big breasts, but that's nothing copared to the size of her gun
Subverted in Mahoromatic. The theme song contains a line that translates to "Big eyes, small boobs, have you seen Mahoro?"
Signum from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, combined with Boobs Of Steel through being a Lightning Bruiser.
Clannad: Kyou and Tomoyo, both having Boobs Of Steel, obviously. Also, Kyou's sister Ryou, since they're twins. Do not let both Nagisa and Kotomi's behavior fool you; they still have relatively large ones. Especially Kotomi, who is seemingly on par with Kyou, size-wise.
Tsunade in Naruto. She must be the only character have actually been measured (106 cm if memory serves and Jiraiya is to be believed).
Hevn in GetBackers. Huge boobs and seemingly no bra, since they jiggle and bounce all over the place at her slightest movement. Even more obvious when Hevn is compared to Natsumi, who's much more flat-chested.
Every girl in Psychic Academy.

Comic Books

The Ur-Example: The urban legend goes that legendary comics artist Wally Wood, one of the original artists for Power Girl at DC, started enlarging her chest issue-to-issue to see how far he could go with it before the suits upstairs caught on. Again, this is just a myth; however, it started a tradition, and it's often considered ~~one~~ two of the main features of the character, i.e. that she has even larger breasts than the average generously-endowed superheroine. Plus the "boob window" over her cleavage making them that much more obvious.
- Lampshaded in the Superman/Batman comic when Batman, Superman, Katana and Power Girl are discussing the need to distract the Toyman (a thirteen-year-old Japanese boy genius). Power Girl (in her costume with the big window in the chest) asks why everyone is suddenly staring at her before realizing the obvious. Well, the pair of obvious.
  - The same issue gave us this other great lampshading, when Superman and Batman talk with the Toyman about his invention after Power Girl is done distracting him:
    Superman: "Will it work?"
    Toyman: "Does Power Girl have big— "
    Batman (cuts him off): "Alright then, let's go."
- Although, to be fair to Power Girl, many of the artists and writers over the past decade or so have had other characters point her figure out (such as in the preceding example), unlike other heroines in skintight and revealing clothing that other characters seemingly ignore. Even Power Girl is aware of her figure. She once commented that she doesn't need to wear a mask because "most of the time...they ain't lookin' at my face."
  - The line's ridiculous, of course, because we see in her new series that she wears low-cut blouses and a slight change of hairstyle for her civilian look. Even assuming that there's not some cringe-worthy "I recognize those!" line coming (and the series does show that she's patient enough to tell the difference between someone who's genuinely attracted to her and someone who's skeeving, so here's hoping that day never comes), she's one gay man, straight woman, or happily involved anyone away from having her identity exposed.
- Some contemporary artists (from the last decade or so) also draw her as muscular, built like a body-builder. Adam Hughes, especially. He even drew a sketch of her lifting her own breasts for exercise in one of his convention sketchbooks.
Big Barda, another DC Universe Hot Amazon, is pretty damn stacked. Part of the reason for this is that she's based on a seventies-era Lainie Kazan, who was gorgeous and had a formidible set of twins. She still does, but at 68 and with about 40 extra pounds, the appeal isn't quite the same. Or is it?
This is so common at Marvel, DC, and even most independent publishers that it'd probably be easier to list those ladies and young women who lack this attribute.
- Wolfsbane of The New Mutants and, later, X-Force, X-Factor, and Excalibur, tends to be more realistically endowed, in both human and half-wolf forms. This is probably a deliberate choice on the part of artists, as the character herself is not particularly sexually active, and may until recently have been a virgin.
- Her former New Mutants teammate and (very?) best friend Dani Moonstar, despite being older and noticeably more sexually active, is also usually depicted as a modestly endowed rangy/athletic sort. At least until she showed up in Avengers: The Initiative. Now she's "poppin out all over".
- Shadowcat is usually depicted as being skinny, which tends to hold over across most artists, though she was thirteen in her first appearance. At the very least, even when shown having a healthy bust herself, she's depicted as smaller than the other X-Women.
- Likewise, the young Jubilee from Generation X is "under-endowed" by usual standards, especially after artists began emphasizing her Asian features. In one issue, she's sitting between Psylocke and Black Widow; Jubilee looks down to her chest, and makes a disappointed face◊. However, after appearing in the recent New Warriors series, it appears that someone has implanted something resembling Microsoft's X-Box into each side of Jubilee's chest. Whether or not this is the artist or something different is still unknown.
- Both Shadowcat and Jubilee are constantly having their ages adjusted (either upward or downward) to suit the preferences of whoever is writing the comic they're in at the moment as well as to account for Comic Book Time, which aside from screwing with continuity will naturally result in fluctuation of their bust size.
- The current co-leader of the X-Men, Emma Frost, is actually a bit of a subversion. Yes, that Emma Frost. She's one of the few heroines or villainnesses in any comic book universe who actually has breast implants. Or, at least, admits to it.
- Some artists have insisted on giving even the above characters DD or larger breasts for the length of their term. A rumor claims that when one writer complained about the enormous breasts on a character, the artist (Rob Liefeld) said that he didn't know how to draw "flat-chested women."
- The latest post-Post-Crisis version of Supergirl has a notably smaller bust compared to her pre-Crisis and "Matrix" incarnations, and especially in comparison to her alternate-earth counterpart Power Girl (see description below and picture above), a fact explicitly pointed out by the similarly less-endowed Stargirl - especially when drawn by Michael Turner and Brandon Peterson, the main artists who "originated" the re-envisioned character. However, both Kara and Stargirl are not consistently portrayed in this regard by all artists.
- Supergirl's case was lampshaded by Lex Luthor when he made a remark about her wearing the S-shield on her "less than impressive chest." Ironically, her counterpart from the Earth-2 universe is Power Girl.
- Though she's normally very well endowed in the comics, the Justice League Unlimited version of Hawkgirl is much less pronounced in this regard, especially when compared to Wonder Woman. But Hawkgirl's bra went up several sizes after DC's "One Year Later" stunt — she went from a 'C' to an 'F' under artist Howard Chaykin, a change that continued into her appearances in the relaunched Justice League Of America series.
- Some artists at least make an effort to give teenage martial artist Cassandra Cain (Batgirl III) a plausible build for her age and lifestyle. Others... don't.
- In Birds Of Prey, thinking the original Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) is back, a cop identifies her as the Batgirl "with the red hair and the big...".
- When Joss Whedon decided to continue Buffy The Vampire Slayer in comic book form, he had to search for an artist who could draw the main character with any kind of anatomical correctness compared with her actor. In keeping with the feminist themes of the story, the final product features women with average-sized chests. In contrast, he must have failed to find anyone like that to draw the Angel comic book continuation. Every single woman is now in a figure hugging and/or revealing outfit, with assets to match, and constantly striking implausible and unnecessary poses to display this. While in one case (Gwen) this is actually in line, in other cases (e.g. Illyria) the new fuller physique is in quite a contrast to the original character on TV.
- Joss also found an artist who could draw slightly built women for Fray, as Joss' intro to the TPB clearly states: "I wanted a real girl, with real posture, a slight figure (that's my classy way of saying "little boobs")". He also clearly says how influenced he was by the previously mentioned Shadowcat, as his run with Astonishing X-men shows.
- Death from The Sandman managed to be quite beautiful while also quite averagely proportioned.
- Though Squirrel Girl of Marvel comics is fairly well-endowed by normal standards, she looks positively skinny next to most superheroines. Squirrel Girl's teammate Big Bertha both averts this trope while paradoxically playing it absolutely straight. She has the ability to gain massive "superbulk," making her appear massively obese. A side effect of this power is the ability to shape her body however she wants; when not being a superhero, she usually chooses to be a supermodel, obviously of the Victoria's Secret type.
- Spider-Girl has always had a realistic build for a teen athlete, despite her mother's body rivaling even the most curvaceous female super in most depictions. Mayday seems to take after her father, both in powers and body type. And while not quite on par with Jubilee, she doesn't have a "super-bust", either.
- As originally drawn in the 1940's, Wonder Woman had an average chest. Obviously, things have changed since then. Tellingly, she is described as canonically the most beautiful woman in DC. All the beholders have the same tastes, then?
- Doctor Light from Crisis On Infinite Earths and Justice League Europe is a mature woman who is modestly endowed.
- She Hulk is on record as the single most buxom female character in the Marvel Universe while her powers are active, but when she's not "hulked out", her proportions are perfectly average. This is recognized even by herself in the cover of one of the John Byrne-penned issues of her solo title. An inter-dimensional villain named "The Living Eraser" had her "erased" from neck to navel in the process of 'transferring' him to her own dimension. She-Hulk looked at her missing section in horror, screaming: "You trying to ruin me? You think readers buy this comic for the stories?".
- This was lampshaded when She-hulk was put on trial by the Time Variance Authority and facing the punishment of being erased from the continuum and replaced by other heroines, if she could not prove that she was irreplacable. Her friend the spacetrucker Razorback testified about an incident where a convenient destruction of her spacesuit distracted a group of attacking pirates, and made them run their ship into an asteroid.
  See? THAT's what makes She-Hulk special! Ya think any other supergal's rack could have done THAT?! I mean c'mon, they're out to HERE, man!
Played straight and subverted by Caitlin Fairchild from Gen13; whilst in her superhero persona her clothing is frequently destroyed but she's left unharmed, and in civilian attire she complains internally about getting lecherous stares from passers-by; and her teammates - one of whom is a very open lesbian. In the most recent version of Gen13, when Grunge absorbed Caitlin's power, he also acquired her bust size. Apparently, boobs ARE part of her superpowers. In the post-Worldstorm version, she was explicitly genetically engineered for attractive appearance. Regardless of continuity, her large breasts were always part of her powers. In her first appearance, she suddenly turns from mousy and petite to muscular and curvy when her powers activate. This is attributed to an increase in "muscle mass". Well, carrying those around could count as weightlifting.
- The same comic gives us Roxy 'Freefall' Spaulding, who has a far more modest figure, allegedly based on Natalie Portman. In the crossover with Monkeyman and O'Brien, however, we get to see evil alternate-universe versions of the team. Evil Roxy looks much like regular Roxy, except with much bigger boobs.
Subversion: During the classic "Judas Contract" storyline in the 1980s Wolfman/Perez New Teen Titans, modestly-endowed Tara "Terra" Markov makes several disparaging remarks about the other female Titans' larger bust sizes, including the immortal appellation "Balloon-Bod" for Starfire.
In the Elf Quest comics, Dewshine is pretty much the only elf without a D-cup. Of course, most of them wear Stripperific clothing.
Subverted in the Capes backup of Invincible #27, wherein Knockout dons large prosthetic breasts while getting into costume. Her also superpowered boyfriend comments that he wished she "didn't have to wear those anymore," to which she replies that her salary has doubled since she started wearing them, and that "the world just doesn't want flat-chested superheroines."
Boo Cat and Licorice Dust are the least-endowed characters in Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose, which means Jim Balent didn't give them gigantic bazookas like the rest of the female cast. He merely provided them with racks that would look right at home at the Playboy mansion. Raven Hex's diary entries in one issue are a protracted rant against her enormous rack and the reaction she gets from the townies, and then end with a declaration of "I've got it, I'll flaunt it." And why don't we mention the enormously talented Latex Red, who has actually two A-bombs hidden in the enormous boobs?
Jim Balent gives 99.9% of female characters gigantic, round, shining bazookas ready to explode. He drew Catwoman with a massive rack for a long time, which is against almost all other depictions of the character. As an agile cat burglar, she's supposed to be lithe and athletic. A pair like that would make it tricky to slide through small spaces and leap across rooftops.
Comic book cover artist Adam Hughes' pinups almost always portrays women with the Most Common Super Power. To his credit, he is one of the few to draw his women with the sort of physique that large breasted women usually have - broader hips and thicker waists.
The same goes for Frank Cho, the creator of Liberty Meadows as well as an artist and writer on various other comic books. His women tend to be tall, with wide hips, bodacious rear ends and muscles. Adam Hughes himself said that if he could choose between a real-life incarnation of one of his girls or one of Frank's, he'd pick Frank's every time.
Averted in DC Comic's new Manhunter. Although it varies by artist, Kate Spencer's appearance was deliberately designed to have more athletic proportions.
Spoofed in the comic Young Justice, when mousy archaeologist Nina Dowd is tranformed into the super-villainess Mighty Endowed, and finds her breasts are now so big she can't stand up without help.
Likewise, when Arrowette is convinced that she's going to have to turn evil, one of her major concerns is the costume that goes with a lifetime of villainy.
Arrowette: Oh God... I'll have to get a tight, skimpy, black leather outfit that shows off my cleavage. Oh God... I'll have to get cleavage.
A good 95% of the female characters drawn by Phil Foglio have this power. Oh lord, do they ever have the power.
In DC's Final Crisis #3, it was revealed that turning evil and entering the service of Darkseid had endowed Mary Marvel with, among other things, an even larger bustline than her normal. Yes, that's right. Darkseid, Lord of Apokolips, "the god that Satan prays to", now gives boob jobs to minions. Weeell... it's either that or she "Shazam!"ed for it. This could be explained by the fact that she was possessed by Desaad at the time, who is every bit as perverse as his name implies.
Openly lampshaded and mocked, like a great deal else, in Empowered:
Empowered: "'Racktastic'? Having allegedly large breasteses, that's not a superpower. Okay?"
Ninjette: "Au contraire, Count Rackula. Believe me, I would so flaunt them if I had 'em."
Empowered: "That I do believe, coming from someone with 'Ninjette' printed across the back of her shorts."
Luba from Love and Rockets and most of her female relatives. L&R does have a fair share of very busty female characters, but a lot of them are pretty full-figured in general & thus have normal proportions. Los Bros. Hernandez have a thing for chubby girls.
This was by far the most noticeable aspect of Renet's (from the Mirage Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics) design. Her animated incarnation? Not so much.
Gold Digger fulfills this trope to a T.
Paul Dini's Madame Mirage regularly bounces around in a very low-cut strapless dress without exposing her very voluptuous assets; justified, in that she's a hologram.
Olga Lawina ◊from the Dutch comic AGENT 327
When Rogue was evil, she had a fairly modest body. This trope may have been amongst the powers that she absorbed from Ms. Marvel.

Film

In My Super Ex-Girlfriend, the advent of G-Girl's metahuman abilities is heralded by an, er, expansion, of her bosom, followed by several other cosmetic changes.
Terminator 3 lampshades this since the T-X is able to adjust its breast size and shape to better win over male humans.

Literature

Lampshaded in Perry Moore's Hero, where pyrokinetic Miss Scarlet says during an icebreaker that she grew up by a nuclear power plant and one day in her teens she woke up with her flame powers and "a rack that would make Dolly Parton jealous." to balance out the absurd improbability of this, she also fights cancer for most of the book.
While not a superhero, Ayla from Jean M Auel's Earth's Children series has so many Mary Sue powers that she's really just one cape shy of being the superhero of the Stone Age. And she just so happens to have huge breasts which are surprisingly firm and bouncy given their size and the fact that she's nursed babies.

Live Action TV

Midway through each season of Who Wants To Be A Superhero, the remaining contestants receive cover art for their potential comic books. All the female contestants are inevitably depicted with some serious cleavage, even those that are actually flat-chested. To be fair, all the male contestants were drawn as buffed out, regardless of their actual physique.

Video Games

The MMORPG Vanguard: Saga of Heroes includes a huge amount of ability to customize the look of your character—there's a slider bar for amount of overbite, for heaven's sake. Nonetheless, the smallest breasts one can give a female character are rather generous.
Similarly, City Of Heroes includes a Chest slider. Diligent research by interested parties has calculated the minimum chest size achievable as a C-cup, average as DD, and the maximum as a gravity-defying HH.
Fairly common in 2D fighting games, probably because the low resolutions used don't lend to subtlety... or maybe they do. In any case, almost any female character beyond puberty is drawn with perky chests and marked curves, with few exceptions and regardless of their stated 3-sizes.
Mortal Kombat. Almost every female fighter in the series sports Stripperific garb, and their breasts seem to range between D and F. Most of them fall near the top end. A semi-exception is Ashrah's primary costume, which is modest but doesn't hide the fact that she has a generous bust.
In Soul Calibur IV, most of the concept art for female characters pretty much featured all of them with upgraded 'assets'. The in-game models tend to be a little less buxom, but not by much. The Character Creation mode, at least, gives you the option of a wide range of bust sizes, including flat chested. Interestingly, while the "Physique" scale for male characters changes their body's overall size, for female characters it seems to exclusively govern breasts and posterior.
- The evolution of Sophitia Alexandra...by 5 she'll probably have to retire due to back problems...
Most of the female cast of the Dead Or Alive games have quite large chests, for obvious reasons.
Aki, the aunt of Ape Escape 3's kid heroes. Her shirt covers up her assets, at least - this IS a kiddy game, you know.
Fire Emblem occasionally does this:
- Fire Emblem 4: Sylvia, overlaps with Gag Boobs
- Fire Emblem 7: Vaida, Karla, Sonia
- Fire Emblem 8: Tethys
Super Smash Bros Brawl. Zero Suit Samus. Notable because the other two female characters in the series, Princess Zelda/Sheik and Princess Peach, are pretty much exceptions to this rule. As is Samus when she's in her Powered Armor, although that's more of the suit being too big to show anything. Samus always had 'em though...the Hamiltonesque version in Super Metroid still had the Boobs Of Steel and hips to die for, the top half being particularly noticable in her "death" animation. It's impressive that the creators kept a decent amount of muscle on her in the Prime series and Brawl.
Gauntlet: Dark Legacy. The Sorceress, in all her incarnations. Though it does explain why she walks and runs like that.
Lampshaded in Castlevania Judgment, with Pettanko Maria Renard referring to them as a "sacred gift". Oddly enough, in this regard Maria Renard has changed since she first appeared in Rondo of Blood. Look at this picture◊, and note that she is 12.
Tifa Lockheart.
- Also in Final Fantasy X with the truly spectacular Lulu, who is a squishy wizard with extra emphasis on the "squishy".
While very little has been said about Mass Effect Galaxy, an iPhone/iPod game, the woman on the right side of this picture◊ for it... Uhhh... kinda sticks out.
One could argue Endless Frontier runs on this.
Mai Shiranui, to some the embodiment of Gainaxing. This status is made fun of several times, such as in one of the Capcom Vs Whatever games when Dhalsim hints that her breasts add a few pounds to her weight.

Webcomics

In Scott Kurtz's PvP, Jade complains that she can't make a super-heroine on NCSoft's City Of Heroes MMORPG without producing an avatar with a back-breaking pair of breasts. When Brent and Francis explain that this condition fits the genre, Jade retaliates by naming her character the Titillator with the battle-cry macro, "Eyes up here!" On the other hand, she's got a decent pair herself, and her bustier sister Miranda uses hers as psychological weapons. After failing to manipulate a male character on one occasion, she looked down at her breasts and asked, "Are these on?" Brent once dreamed of Jade in a classic comic-book style - appropriately drawn by Frank Cho himself - and was awestruck with the results.
Alternately parodied and embraced in Supermegatopia, especially by the characters of Buxom Gal, an explicit parody of Power Girl whose breasts expand as she absorbs energy and contract as she uses it, and Distraction Damsel, whose "super power" is to distract bad guys (and everyone else) with her assets and precisely-timed "wardrobe malfunctions".
Subverted in these two PS238 strips. Villainess "The Kestrel" is blackmailed with medical pictures proving that hers aren't all-natural. She had it done because she's "got a mystique to maintain in this business." Beyond that, author/artist Aaron Williams rarely portrays any of his women with the Most Common Superpower. Especially Piffany, who is short and rather dumpy.
Ellen from El Goonish Shive has this pretty literally: her "superpower" is to transform anyone, including herself, into a beautiful, busty, long-haired girl. Her own assets have occasionally been refered to as the "Wonder Twins" on this basis, both in comics and within fandom.
The whole premise of the webcomic Sidekick Girl is that superheroes are chosen because they "look the part" and sidekicks are assigned on the basis of the heroes' needs. This leaves the intelligent and skillful but relatively plain Valerie as Hypercompetent Sidekick to a telegenic and curvacious blonde bombshell Brainless Beauty named Illumina, who has tended to get a long string of sidekicks killed with her incompetence. Valerie was picked because she can't die—and that's it. No Healing Factor, no immunity to injury or pain. She just doesn't die from anything. She can suffer, though. Man, can she suffer.
Discussed in this strip from Something Positive:
Aubrey: Oh, I wanna be a superhero! All that power and might! The cool abilities and costumes! The shockingly perfect boobie-spheres that have their own unique center of gravity!
Davan: I noticed fighting for truth and justice wasn't in that little wish list.
Aubrey: Davan, super women have super boobies. Super boobies are a "get out of fighting for good" card in the Monopoly game that is our lives.
Kanazuchi Yuuki of Sparkling Generation Valkyrie Yuuki, to the point where she can use "her" breasts as a ''monster detector''.
Yuuki: "Note to Self: Jiggle = bad stuff."
The character Joule from the web comic WICKEDPOWERED has this power, and a whole lot of it. Example.
Vulcan Boob Squish! Faye probably wouldn't count if it wasn't for her co-stars all being beanpoles.
Monica from Wapsi Square.
Shout Out to the ur-example (see Comic Books above) in this Menage a 3 strip. For that matter, Didi is a pretty good representation of this trope herself.
The titular character of The Challenges of Zona and even more so the giantess Liri who would be at least a DD if she was human. Being around 15 feet tall her breasts pretty much demand their own zip code.
Slick from Sinfest knows this trope. See for yourself.
Ash Upton is by far the best endowed female character in Misfile, as befits the daughter of a langerie model...much to her chagrin, as she's actually a boy.

Web Original

Played with in the online story Interviewing Leather: Leather is a supervillain who used to be a superhero. Amongst her reasons for her Face Heel Turn is the fact that she didn't look like a superhero: she was only a B-cup and most heroines had at least double D's. "You know what they call it? Side Kick physique." Then again, she may be an Unreliable Narrator making excuses. Especially given that female supervillains are, if anything, even more inclined toward having supersized breasts and skimpy costumes that barely hide them.
In the League Of Intergalactic Cosmic Champions Hamburger Pattie lived up to this trope while Frangelica was the inversion. Guess which character was written by a man & which by a woman?
Justified in the Whateley Universe, since the Exemplar power that a lot of these teenaged mutants possess reshapes their body image to what they subconsciously think it ought to be. Hence, a lot of these teenaged girls have huge tracts of land for their age, just as a lot of these teenaged boys look way too buff for growing high school boys. However, main character Phase is an A-cup, and main character Generator is ecstatic when she gets all the way up to an A-cup, having been flat as a boy beforehand. Having (technically) been a boy beforehand.
Survival Of The Fittest has a fair amount of busty female characters, though often they're balanced out with less-endowed characters and overall rather reasonable. One of the more notable examples of an absurdly buxom character is the volume 2 villain Mariavel Varella, who has a rail thin figure but was still originally described as having large, DD cup breasts. When transferred from pregame to the actual game, it was retconned to a D cup, but considering her very slender build she was still ridiculously well-endowed, especially considering she was a gang member and a cheerleader, far more athletic than her figure would suggest.
Done (but certainly no more or less justified than in any other instance) in Pokegirls, in which the female monsters were created by the Big Bad Mad Scientist Sukebe, who made the majority of them very well endowed.

Western Animation

Ty Lee of Avatar The Last Airbender has rather large breasts for a fourteen-year old gymnast. The Beach Episode even has several conspicuous, generous looks down the front of her bathing suit. And then there's one-episode Jin.◊
In Wolverine And The X Men, every female sans the younger, more underage ones, seems to have this most infamous, yet welcome, trait. And they are not at all afraid to show it.
Danny Phantom: Desiree, Maddie, and Valerie are the more frequent victims.
The girls of WITCH, both in the comics and the animated series, are all pleased when their powers make their breasts effectively double in size. Some, like eye-popping Irma, are a bit too enthused...tellingly her attempts to take advantage of them ends in embarrassment and her ego getting deflated. It goes without saying Breast Expansion is a common source of comedy in both the comic and animated versions.
