Top ten signs the superhero in the movie you're watching is really lame.

10. First appeared in the pages of Mad magazine.

9. Became super after an an accident caused by failing to use household cleaning supplies as directed.

8. Mostly goes out in the super disguise just to duck bill collectors.

7. Only has his powers when he chainsmokes and stays drunk.

6. Although he's gained the power to fly, he still gets violently airsick.

5. In the middle of the action, has to call AAA to jump-start the supermobile.

4. His secret lair is in his parents' basement.

3. His flying scenes look suspiciously like a panicked stunt double being chucked off a tall building.

2. Has no elaborate summoning signal; police commissioner just leans out the window and hollers.

1. Invisibility power cuts out at odd moments, leaving him standing buck naked in front of the bad guys.
