4	The greatest comic never made by {{Dookie}}, the Dumbest Smartass In The Universe(TM). One day, Dookie and some friends decided to make a {{Deconstruction}} of shonen fighting anime. And so he came up with this and decided to spare the world a gruesome fate. It wasn't much of a {{Deconstruction}} but it sure was funny. It may plausibly become a webcomic.
5
6	A child asks his father why there are no superheroes anymore and he got... this. This load of BS about how an extraordinarily powerful teen who, ByThePowerOfGreyskull and his PubertySuperpower, managed to blow all costumed superheroes out of existence. Yay.

8	-----
9	''Characters:''
10	* Dad
11	* Kid, an awfully curious child who got the bedtime story of his life.
12	* [[NoNameGiven The unnamed hero]]: [[PubertySuperpower One day he woke up to find that he had a single pubic hair and could now set things spontaneously on fire.]] HilarityEnsues.
13	* Oberon, the resident vigilante who loves to piss off the official superhero of the Big City, Citizenman. Also has the same superpower as the hero, but is pissed off at the hero for trying to take his job.
14	* Titania, Oberon's longtime childhood friend and the closest thing he has to a maternal figure (Oberon's own mother is blissfully ignorant of his "fun").
15	* Big Daddy-The mysterious BigBad who is always cloaked in shadow and wears a horned helmet with a [[RuleOfCool massive and apparently functioning eyeball on it despite the fact it would make him vulnerable]]. He wants the hero and Oberon dead for unclear reasons. Loves a good EvilPlan.
16	* Repairman, one of Big Daddy's servants who is in charge of Big Daddy's petty crimes division, known as the League of Not-Nice People, to avoid association with Big Daddy. He is a pathetic weakling who comes across the opportunity of his lifetime when he runs into the hero. He dresses like a repairman but can't repair crap, so he destroys it instead. His crew in the petty crimes division:
17	** Nuclear Baby, an adult who looks like a baby that happens to shoot radiation around. Generally a pickpocket. TheScrappy of the League of Not-Nice People, which is expressed in Repairman's constant punishment of him.
18	** The MonsterClown, [[TheQuietOne a mercenary that doesn't talk much.]] He wears a mask with a smiley face on it at all times to hide his actual facial expression as part of some strange superstition of his. It's speculated that he's just plain ugly.
19	** [=SUPAChicken=], Repairman's animal sidekick and close confidant. Can [[strike:[[MemeticMutation shoop da whoop]]]] fire lasers from his beak.
20	** Robomaster, a robotic superweapon originally built during the UsefulNotes/ColdWar by a bunch of [[KnightTemplar conspiracy theorists with spare time on their hands]] to annihilate humanity so that humanity would not suffer from a nuclear war. Scrapped when he developed a [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway heart.]] A white elephant in that he's too overly emotional for violence, so he's the League's political insider.
21	* Citizenman, the Big City's local superhero with the power of great citizenship. He has voted in every election in the Big City ever and has a 99.9% approval rating as resident superhero. Who's the 0.1% you ask? Actual superheroes who kindly point out that he's done nothing.
22	* I'm not giving out any more spoilers, so I'm not giving out any more characters.

24	!!'''This Work Displays Examples of the Following Tropes:'''
25
26	%%* AIIsACrapshoot: Robomaster, who also [[{{Wangst}} wangsts]] about this.
27	%%* AntiHero: Parodied with Oberon.
28	%%* AntiVillain: Robomaster, also Repairman to an extent.
29	%%* ArtisticLicenseNuclearPhysics: Nuclear Baby, especially his radiation-based attacks.
30	%%* ArtisticLicensePhysics: Lampshaded constantly.
31	%%* BadassNormal: Citizenman thinks he is this. HilarityEnsues.
32	%%* BumblingDad: The dad.
33	%%* CityOfAdventure: The Big City, which is actually a city-state.
34	%%* ClusterFBomb: Nuclear Baby often drops one when insecure.
35	%%* TheComicallySerious: Titania and the hero.
36	%%* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: Big Daddy loves doing this to failures. However, it's usually cool, cruel, and unusual punishment.
37	* CoolSword: An InformedAbility of Oberon in that he always carries the sword but never uses it.
38	%%* CreatorBreakdown: The dad is depressed one day which leads to...
39	%%* DarkerAndEdgier: One chapter, in TOTAL contrast to everything else. Nah. Actually, it's subverted in that the usual color scheme of the comic becomes grayscale with a gray filter over it making it literally DarkerAndEdgier.
40	%%* EldritchAbomination: Big Daddy's heavily implied to be one but nothing is ever confirmed, as he is never actually seen in full.
41	%%* {{Expy}}: Do I have to spell them out?
42	%%* FauxActionGirl: Subverted. Titania is implied to be one and then turns out to be the genuine thing.
43	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Citizenman really means well despite being hopelessly delusional about his own abilities and obnoxiously pedantic.
44	* [[McGuffin McGuffin]]: The Helm of the Fallen, which is a literal HeroBall. Lampshaded and [[spoiler:proves useless]], to the hero's consternation.
45	* MeaningfulName: Oberon and Titania. What Shakespeare play is that from?
46	%%* TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness: Big Daddy's recurring unnamed but very creepy associates.
47	* ParodySue: Oberon's a parody of a JerkassStu.
48	%%* RedOniBlueOni: Oberon (blue) and the hero (red).
49	* [[RidiculouslyHumanRobots Ridiculously Human Robot]]: Parodied with Robomaster in that he acts so human he's overdoing it, but, in fact, has the appearance of a brutal killing machine despite being pretty harmless.
50	%%* TheRival: Oberon to the hero.
51	%%* There are two rules in the world:
52	%%** RuleOfCool (Everything having to do with Oberon and Big Daddy)
53	%%** RuleOfFunny (Everything else)
54	%%* SealedEvilInACan: Big Daddy's punishment of choice.
55	%%* ShoutOut: Plenty to ''Manga/DragonBallZ''.
56	* SortingAlgorithmOfEvil: Lampshaded and mostly averted once Big Daddy realizes it. Then played straight and justified when Big Daddy sends his weakest fighters out first so he can watch them suffer and send out his strong fighters after they fail.
57	%%* StormingTheCastle: The hero's MO. Oberon does not approve.
58	%%* StraightMan: The hero.
59	* SuperMode: [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Bears no similarity to Super Saiyans.]]
60	* SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids: Inverted with Robomaster, who is a military robot who has surprisingly few weapons but lots of things useful in nonmilitary situations, like housekeeping or political coverups. Averted with other robots that appear who generally stick to the purpose they were built for.
61	* SupervillainLair: There are quite a few, but a recurring one is the League of Not-Nice people's lair, hideously underfunded by Big Daddy, and complete with an InsecuritySystem.
62	%%* ToBeAMaster: The hero's quest in life. Eventually he lampshades the more inane aspects of this trope.
63	%%* TheUnintelligible: [=SUPAChicken=].
64	%%* {{Wangst}}: Oberon does it daily.
65	* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Literally with Robomaster, but it also applies to Citizenman, who is BlessedWithSuck but is too full of himself to realize it.
66	* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Subverted. Nonhumans aren't arbitrarily swept aside, but Robomaster [[WrongGenreSavvy suspects that this is true]] and this leads to his being incredibly paranoid on missions, one of the reasons why he is epic fail as a combat robot.
