Aw, I liked the name Boring Invincible Hero :(

Pulled:

Sentry: Superpower? The strength of "one million exploding suns." Looks like we have a winner.

This thing?

If people learned from their mistakes, there wouldn't be this thing called bad habits.

What's wrong with the old Superman Picture. I thought that worked pretty well.

God Man is much more hilarious than the original image, and it's also much clearer an example as well.

Because Superman is vulnerable to Kryptonite Factor.

Stephen Seagal? Or how about a picture of Boba Fett with a link to Karen Traviss' page below it?

Or to Writer on Board and some of her works if she does not have one.

Those'd both be Just A Face And A Caption.

We need a picture that illustrates the trope. Edmania's God-Man is pretty good for that.

What's precedent ever done for us?

God-Man's okay, but it relies pretty heavily on the text to get the idea across. Better would be an image that showed a hero actually looking invincible. The image from Shooting Superman would work, if it weren't already in use.

That's what's happening in that pic? I always thought that was light reflecting off of his Pure Awesomeness.

Just a thought, how about a picture of neo from the beginning of the burly brawl?

God-Man works fine. Using text isn't a disqualification, no matter how much some people seem to want it to be.

I like God-Man as well. It's too bad we can't use Sentry, because he absolutely and without a doubt epitomizes Boring Invincible Hero...but, of course, that's no longer what the trope is.

It isn't? Thought it was just the name was changed to be less negative.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.

Either Godman or that panel from Order Of The Stick where V's master is: destroying a humonguous dragon, with one hand, facing the other way, while reading a book.

I'm all behind Godman, I can't think of anything that gets it across even better.

Definitely go with God-Man. Awesome image to depict the trope.

Also, what on earth is that from, anyways?

Belief or disbelief rests with you.

Image changed, no reference to The Sentry found in entries. It only needs a pothole and then this can be locked, I'll PM the mods. I'll go put it in "Image Source Needed".
