{{quote|''"If I was in [[Superman]]'s place, I'd be totally lording my powers over all the other [[Superfriends]]. 'Hey [[Batman]],' I'd say, 'Nice utility belt! Got anything in there that would help you lift an oil tanker? I didn't think so. Hey [[Aquaman (Comic Book)|Aquaman]]! You realize I could pretty much kick ass over any sea creature you cared to summon, don't you? [[Wonder Woman]]! Your magic lasso makes me tell the truth: You suck!'"''|'''[http://www.bookofratings.com/superfriends.html Book Of Ratings]'''}}

** [[Badass Normal|Thugboy]] went on a pretty impressive rant about this type of super.
* Pretty much every superhero in [[The Boys]] by Garth Ennis.

'''Hakumen:''' "I hope you know what it means... to stand before me!"<br />
'''Hakumen:''' "What was that?! Don't tell me you call that fighting...!" }}
** Series [[Big Bad]] Hazama is a villainous example. Naturally, when he and Hakumen confront each other, it is [[Ham -to -Ham Combat|a sight to behold]].
* Captain Smiley, [[Anti-Hero]] of ''[[Comic Jumper]]''.
* [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] is quick to taunt his enemies and be very vocal about his [[Super Speed]], but how much he does so [[Depending on the Writer|depends from time to time]].
