* Superdickery - Anytime Superman does something that isn't exactly very heroic. Common occurrence in the Gold and Silver age comics. [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20130829041840/http://superdickery.com/images/stories/monkeys/1458_4_039.jpg there's a Website of the same name chronicling all instances of this]
** Note that this is different than the [[Super Dickery]] trope, which refers to when covers or previews show a good character apparently act like a dick out of context to intrigue readers/viewers.
** The [[Moral Dissonance]] version of the term Superdickery also has the derivatives [[Batman|Batdickery]] <ref>which can refer to dickery committed by Batgirl, Oracle, or Tim Drake's Robin too</ref>, [[Wonder Woman|Wonderdickery]], [[The Flash|Flashdickery]], [[Green Lantern|Lanterndickery, Guardiandickery]], [[Green Arrow|Arrowdickery]], [[Nightwing|Wingdickery/Robindickery/Dickdickery]], [[Spider-Man|Spiderdickery]], [[Fantastic Four|Fourdickery]], [[Captain America (comics)|Capdickery]], [[Iron Man|Irondickery]], [[X-Men|X-dickery]], [[The Hulk|Hulkdickery]], and finally the catch-all terms "Herodickery" and... "Superdickery".
Line 170:
* Rohmagol - The fan theory that "Rohlan Dyre" in the ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'' comics, starting with issue 14, is actually Demagol in his armor, posing as him.
* Tower Head Girl - the so far nameless super who has a 5-foot cylinder of greebled metal growing out of her head in ''[[Empowered]]''.
* The Moose - the monster in the wall in ''[[JtJohnny HMthe Homicidal Maniac]]''. So called because one character says it sounds like either [[H.P. Lovecraft|rats in the walls]] or possibly a moose, and later there's a note saying 'definately not a moose'.
* In Brazil, Michonne from [[The Walking Dead (comics)|The Walking Dead]] is often called Machona/Machonna (something like "manly girl").
