* Avatar: An archaeologist who stumbled onto an [[Sapient Ship|ancient sentient alien spaceship]] shaped like a turtle. Unfortunately, in her rush to take advantage of the Turtle Ship's amazing powers, she forgot the medication for her multiple personality disorder, and now flits between believing she's various goddesses. While the Turtle Ship can provide the power she needs to play Zeus or whatever, it has limits (and is sane), turning her into a mostly [[Harmless Villain]].

* Buxom Gal: Given strange energy powers by aliens (who were trying to augment her breasts), Buxom Gal can fly, shoot beams of energy, and has super strength... But if she doesn't use her powers, her breasts grow to absurd sizes. Recently split into 3 clones based on hair color, the red head is evil and the black-haired one is an [[Anti-Hero]]. There is also the younger (but ''still'' well-endowed) Buxom Girl and the cojoined Buxom Twins, who were apparently part of a rash of Buxom Gal clones created by SMT's [[Mad Scientist]] population. A rather [[Captain Ersatz|obvious parody]] of [[Power Girl]], down to the costume design.

* Dr. Ghoti: Archrival of Weasel Boy. Supervillain who's been turned into a fish. Not an anthromorphic fish, just a fish. Uses a mechanical suit with a fishbowl head to fight. (Imagine a ''smarter'' [[Earthworm Jim (Animation)|Bob the goldfish]] if he'd actually obtained Jim's suit)

* Delilah: An [[Hot Amazon|amazingly tall, massively strong Valkyrie]] from the frozen norths. She challenged the strongest male in the group, Mongoose Guy, to a fight and trounced him, only to be saved during from certain death by Weasel Boy. By the traditions of her people, they are now married...so he runs like a scared dog back to the city. She finds him. Notably, she's a rabbit, and [[Lovable Sex Maniac|it's rather fitting]]. An [[Affectionate Parody]] of [[Urusei Yatsura]]'s Lum.

* Greasy Monkey: The [[Wrench Wench|tomboy engineer]] friend of Weasel Boy. In love with him, but he's clueless. No superpowers, just talent.

* Distraction Damsel: a.k.a.: [http://www.mistythemouse.com/ Misty], a character from another furry webcomic. Gets her name and powers from... well... ''[[Gag Boobs|damn...]]''

* Captain Mayfly: One of the smallest, but most dedicated superhero legacies in the city. Captain Mayfly is, well, a ''[[wikipedia:Mayfly|Mayfly]]'', which means [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|Exactly what you think it does]]. To their credit, however, the good Captains have kept this legacy unbroken for ''years''. The [[Legacy Character]] taken to the extreme.

* The All-Stripper Squadron: A group of superheroes who decided to take up exotic dancing. Not really much else we can add to that.

* Mad Dr. Nesbit: Supermegatopia's ''other'' resident [[Mad Scientist]]. Still has her job at Supermegatopia Labs because, unlike other Mad Docs we could name, she has no interest in ruling the world--just in donuts and a bit of sadism now and again. You're just in for a world of pain if you ever cross her. Last we saw her, she was completely occupied by the captured Mongoose Guy, and was fitting him for a saddle...

* [[Art Evolution]]: Many of the earliest comics from The Brothers were coarse, oddly inked, and difficult to follow. By the time they started ''Weasel Boy'' and ''Crushed'', the artwork had improved, and all one needs to do is read through the former from start to (current) end to see the progress.

* [[Bomb-Throwing Anarchists]]: Worse, ''atomic bomb dropping anarchists''. Where the ''hell'' did an anarchist even ''get'' an atomic bomb?

* [[Brain In A Jar]]: Jim, Dr. Nesbitt's assistant. She adds fish sometimes, as a punishment for [[You Have Failed Me|screwing up]], or just making too many smart remarks.

* [[Canon Immigrant]]: Several fanart characters and one-shot jokes were merged into official canon later.

* [[Celibate Hero]]: Subverted more than a few times--most everyone involved is trying to get laid with varying results. Two of the "heroes", [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|appopriately-named Slut Puppy and Horn Dog]], tend to foil plots and conquer foes through [[Loveable Sex Maniac|amazing amounts of sex]].

* [[Church Militant]]: [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Holy Cow]], a mace toting spandex-and-wimple wearing fighter of evil.

* [[Cliff Hanger]] /LeftHanging/ [[Cut Short]]: As of April 2010, ''Weasel Boy'' has not been updated since "Secret Destroyers" in 2003, despite a plug for the next chapter "Dawn Of The Doomed". As Stu, the writer for the Supermegatopia comics, no longer works on the franchise, it's likely that it'll never be picked up again. The other half of The Brothers, Brian, focuses on one-off artwork and the ''Crushed'' franchise (which has moved to mostly print comics) these days. This means that a ''huge'' number of plot threads going back to the beginnings of the comic are dangling forever more.

** And now it's March 2012; the site was converted to a simple gallery in 2011, removing all the comics and artwork. There hasn't been an installment of ''Crushed'' since Issue #2 of the Angry Viking Press comic in 2009, ''By Way of Booty Bay'' and ''They Might Be Giant Robots'' disappeared along with ''Crushed'' and ''Supermegatopia'' itself; Brian took significant time away in 2011 to recover from illness, move, and get married, greatly reducing his output.

* [[Cloning Blues]]: Buxom Gal let her DNA get into the hands of ''a lot'' of people who've used it and abused it. Now there's dozens of near-clones of her running around--[[Conjoined Twins]] The Buxom Twins, Loli Buxom Girl, [[Evil Knockoff]] Buxom Gal Red, [[Heroic Mime]] Buxom Gal Dark (who's since [[Fusion Dance|merged with Buxom Gal]] to become Buxom Gal Fusion), [[Everything's Better With Monkeys|Buxom Gal-rilla]], [[Gender Bender|Buxom Guy]], [[Clothes Make the Superman|Buxom Gal Metal]], [[Intercontinuity Crossover]] Buxom Elephant Girl from ''Meshworld'', Gorkorian Girl from an [[Alternate Universe|alternate dimension]], [[Canon Immigrant]] Buxom Knaw, even an army of [[Empty Shell]] versions called The Buxom Skippies. Together, they form [http://supermegatopia.com/gallery/gallery.php?thisLink=buxomlegion.jpg The Buxom Legion].

* [[Clothing Damage]]: Played Straight, but with an emphasis on the female characters and robots.

* [[Creator Breakdown]]: Not a severe example, although if you listen to the forums, the original brothers are no longer on speaking terms. This may tie into the archive purge the website recently went through. At least one brother is still doing pinup art (without any of the Supermegatopia IP) on [http://www.furaffinity.net/user/drakefenwick/ Fur Affinity] (NSFW).

* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: '''AND HOW!''' Buxom Gal may be the biggest example of this, her powers are directly related to her breast size, though others are more blunt about it, like Topless Lass from The All-Stripper Squadron.

* [[Naked On Arrival]] / [[Naked On Revival]]: Any time Crushed's party ends up back at the Temple of Infinite Lives, they're completely reincarnated, sans equipment, requiring they not only go recover their clothing and gear from their previous bodies, but also dispose of the old bodies afterwards. Lampshaded, as Crushed complains loudly about this and her consistent absentmindedness preventing her from leaving a replacement outfit at the temple for future use.

* [[Nineties Anti-Hero]]: Ferret Man. Usually played for laughs since the usual villains in SMT are goofy and ineffectual parodies of Silver Age villian tropes, and as such usually get shot by him very quickly.
