Even the description of this trope admits that suing superheroes can be played just as much for drama as it can for laughs. On top of that, the current title "Hilarity Sues" makes no mention of the fact that this is often done in a setting of superheroes and villains, or at least Badass Normals.
Other suggested names:
- Sue the Superhero
- Sue the Super
- Super Lawsuit
