	~~The original [[/co/\|comic book]] [[superhero]].~~

	We can give you a description, but let's be sincere, he's fucking Superman, you know who he is. And in the odd chance you don't, this is the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman wrong] [https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Superman wiki] to end your ignorance. To say he's widely beloved is an understatement. To put it into perspective, superhero-hating comic author [[Edgy\|Garth Ennis]] considers him one of the few superheroes he does respect.
	~~[[File:Superman.jpeg\|thumb\|[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9vrfEoc8_g Dah Dadadah Dah,Dah,Dah..]]]~~

	~~As far as /tg/'s concerned, he's relevant for a few reasons:~~

	* Naturally, he's a fixture of licensed RPGs based on [[DC Comics]].
	** The [[Smallville RPG]], released by Margaret Weis Productions, which is by most accounts very good (if very far in the storytelling corner of the storytelling/game/simulation RPG triangle).
	** West End Games [[D6 System]] based DC Universe.
	** DC Adventures, which is literally a reskin of third edition [[Mutants and Masterminds]] with no rules changes.
	* There's the endless debate of how to stat him up in a given RPG.
	* He's the original Superhero, and a regular "fountain of expies"; any work of fiction aping superhero comics is probably going to have a flying brick, usually the leader of the most important superhero team, and his relative morality/success is usually a good barometer of the [[Grimdark]]ness of the setting. If your Supes-equivalent is an asshole or died horribly at some point in the past, the setting's probably a deliberate deconstruction or edgy mirror of traditional comics.
	* To that point, Superman pioneered the so-called "flying brick" power set: superspeed and flight so he can get around without a hard-to-draw vehicle, super strength and invulnerability so he can get into a lot of over-the-top fights.
	* There's a creature card called Morphling in [[Magic: The Gathering]] nicknamed "Superman" because, like Supes, Morphling can do anything a creature card could do at that time, though he needs two blue mana each time. Wizards later printed an enchantment whose name is an anagram for "I am Superman" that can turn any creature into a Morphling-alike.
	* [[Batman]]'s other butt buddy, after Robin.
	* If you game at all in a comic book store, you'll probably see him on a standee or other display.
