Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | When you have an invulnerable hero in a dramatic show, or one that tries to get you to take the fights seriously, it's a Boring Invincible Hero. When the focus is on the Rule of Cool, it's a Showy Invincible Hero. Some shows, though, play the hero's absurdly overpowered abilities and near-invulnerability for laughs. Since the fights themselves are a foregone conclusion, they frequently get skipped or handled in one panel (this trope is particularly common in comics.) The characters frequently lampshade this trope, and in the rare case where a fight actually does have any build-up, it will often end in a deliberate anticlimax. Sight gags are often used to lampshade it further, such as supporting characters playing cards or otherwise ignoring the latest Big Bad (or even the fight itself.) |
