* [[Alternative Character Interpretation]]: The site (jokingly) regards [[Superman]] as a [[Complete Monster]] of the highest order, to the astonishing amount of times he has apparently:

** Also, [[Batman]] is a dangerously repressed closet pedophile who sexually abuses Robin.

* [[Drinking Game]]: Every time you see Jimmy Olsen with superpowers, [[Running Gag|take a shot]].
* [[Grand Finale]]: "You know, if there were ever to be a permanent end to Superdickery (yeah, yeah, I came close), [https://web.archive.org/web/20150729221800/http://www.superdickery.com/jokers-thoughts-on-superdickery-com/ this] would be absolutely perfect as the capstone image."

* [[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?|Have I Mentioned Batman Is Heterosexual Today]]
* [[Innocent Innuendo]]: We think.
Line 54:
* [[It Makes Sense in Context]]: The creator of the site acknowledges that most of the examples likely sense in context (probably because it ''is'' the [[The Silver Age of Comic Books|SILVER AGE]] we're dealing with), but it's simply [[Rule of Funny|funnier this way]].
** For example, that panel showing Superman with Super-Weaving? {{spoiler|That's actually Van-Zee, a Krytonian from Kandor who happens to have an [[Uncanny Family Resemblance]] to Superman. The story deliberately plays with the reader's expectations by not having anything from characters to the narration refer to him or Silvia Dewitt -- an [[Identical Stranger]] of Lois Lane -- by their actual names until [[The Reveal]] (even skipping over certain scenes that easily give away the surprise, then showing them once the twist is executed). So technically, Superman himself doesn't actually have Super-Weaving powers. That we know of}}.
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20151121122618/http://www.superdickery.com/superman-threatening-to-rape-wonder-girl/ There was a similar case] when Superboy threatened to ''rape'' Wonder Girl: {{spoiler|it was an ugly alien disguising itself as him. That's about it. Still a threat of rape.}}
** There are a couple of cases where the site's creator is familiar with the context, but says it doesn't make sense anyway.
* [[Jerkass]]: Superman, but (less frequently) Batman, Jimmy, Lois... [[Crapsack World|pretty much everybody]].
* [[Nice Hat]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20150612103757/http://www.superdickery.com/king-superman-2/ Superman's "pope" hat], which seems to be [[Ensemble Darkhorse|a personal favorite]] to the website's creator, as he [[Running Gag|constantly laments]] that [[One-Scene Wonder|it only appeared once]].
* [[Perverse Sexual Lust]]: Forum user [[Awesome McCoolname|Rad McAwesome]] has an obsession over [[Fan Nickname|Thriftie]], the [[Super Stoic Shopkeeper]] from ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|The New Batman Adventures]]''. He even [http://editthis.info/Superdickery/Thriftie#Origin_Story wrote a backstory for her] and had a [[Rule 34]] website draw her naked.
* [[Rule of Funny]]
Line 66:
{{quote|''"You nicknamed him [[Unfortunate Name|Speedy]]. What did you expect?!"''}}
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]]: Many of the Stupor Powers are of this variety.
* [[X Called. They Want Their Y Back.]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20150702093039/http://www.superdickery.com/bucky-strapped-to-a-bomb/ Bucky, Wonder Woman called. She wants her cover back.]
