Line 34:
* [[Superman]] himself is an example; he's a completely normal [[Human Aliens|Kryptonian]], but the completely normal ability of Kryptonians to absorb solar energy makes him on Earth, well, [[Superman]].
** Same can be said about [[Martian Manhunter]] - completely normal Martian but compared to humans he is extremely powerful.
* While [[The Mighty Thor|Loki]] is often more of a [[Non-Action Guy|schemer than a fighter]] when dealing with Asgardians, and is supposed to be a weakling compared to fellow giants, it's sometimes acknowledged that he's still way beyond the physical capacity of any human. For instance, in ''[[Hulk Vs]]'', he's shown giving Bruce Banner a weak slap that is strong enough to launch Banner across the room, and as discussed by [https://web.archive.org/web/20120115205431/http://www.reelz.com/movie-news/11947/two-new-the-avengers-images-plus-tom-loki-hiddleston-not-impressed-with-the-team/ Tom Hiddleston], who will play him in ''[[The Avengers (film)|The Avengers]]'', being a god, Loki can easily take down the [[Badass Normal]] heroes, even [[World's Strongest Man]] [[Captain America (comics)]].
** Some of Thor's commrades like Warrior's Three or Balder also qualify - they are pretty average if skilled warriors among their own people, but each of them is much stronger than human.
* [[Nemesis the Warlock]] is well-respected among his race, but is not potrayed as being extraordinary powerful. In fact, his crazy uncle Baal is said to have much greater power than him and he can be put on a spell even by young and unexperienced female Warlock (as they are by default more powerful than males) and the only thing that makes him special is being in the posession of Sword Sinister, through it's unexplained why. Compared to humans and other races he is however seen almost as a godlike bieng and Galaxy's only hope against Termight Empire.
