Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Bananaman is a British comic strip about Eric Wimp, a young boy who could change into a brawny but not terribly bright superhero by eating a banana. Luckily for world peace, his enemies were usually even more incompetent than he was. Originally the cover feature in Nutty, it carried over when the strip moved to The Dandy (where much was made of the slight similarity in appearance between Bananaman and Desperate Dan).Later the comics were adapted into a series of animated shorts, which is how the character is best known outside Britain. In the United States, Nickelodeon showed Bananaman as a filler program, often after Danger Mousenote Which, even with commercials ended well before the usual 30-minute runtime.Now also appears in The Beano.There used to be a webpage declaring a movie was in development. Now there isn't. There is, however, a stage musical. [1]Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Adaptational Badass: Downplayed: A story featuring Colonel Blight and Dr. Gloom cloning Bananaman to use the clone as their weapon left Crow the dilemma on who's the real one. The comic had Crow ask: "What comes up must come...", with the clone answering correctly, causing Crow to turn him into a banana since the real Bananaman would be too stupid to answer it. The animation however, had Crow ask instead: "What's heavier? A ton of lead or a ton of feathers?". The real Bananaman points out it's a trick question,note If they both weigh a ton, of course they'd be exactly the same weight! only for the clone to ask: "What kind of feathers?" despite hearing Bananaman point out the trick question. Crow still proceeds to turn him into a banana, this time knowing that the real Bananaman would be smart enough to answer that correctly.
