Line 26:
Sooner or later, all '''Super Heroes''' have an [[Super-Hero Origin|origin story]]. If the series lasts long enough, the [[Sorting Algorithm of Evil]] will introduce the bigger threat of a [[Super Villain]], possibly an [[Arch Enemy]]. If the superhero fights enough of them [[Recurring Character|often enough]], they may gather a [[Rogues Gallery]].
Superheroes are ''not'' limited merely to comic books and their derivations. Greek Heroes like Heracles and Achilles could be considered a sort of [[Ur Example|ancient prototype]]. ''[[Knight Rider]]'' or ''[[The Six Million Dollar Man]]'' are television examples partaking fairly little of the comic book medium. [[Anime]] in particular is chock full of super heroes from [[Astro Boy (manga)|Astro Boy]] to [[Dragonball Z|Goku]] and [[Sailor Moon]]. See also [[Sentai]], [[Magical Girl Warrior]]. Not to mention [[Super Robot]], which is the '''Superhero''' writ ''very'' large (and armored).
In some continuities they may be called [[Differently-Powered Individual|something other than superhero]], but they're usually still recognizable as such. See also [[Superhero Prevalence Stages]] and [[Standard Superhero Setting]].
