Smug Super	comment	Normally, Superheroes are modest, and failing that at least they're rarely vain. But then again, if you had superpowers, wouldn't you be the tiniest bit tempted to lord it over the foiled bad guys? Well, the Smug Super thinks so, and in fact, he'll tell you about it. At great length. In fact, he won't shut up about it! The Smug Super is a superhero or villain who knows they've won the Super Power Lottery and won't hesitate to remind others, especially if they're beneath him on the Super Weight scale. This character is similar to the Smug Snake, though rather than being manipulative and sneaky, he's very upfront about his opinion of himself and is an active fighter who is at least on an equal footing with the rest of the cast. Also, unlike the Smug Snake, he can be very enjoyable to see in action for the One Liners they deliver. Likewise, he might fall over the edge into camp. These characters are more likely to experience This Cannot Be! moments than others on the off chance they lose. In combat, he's likely to hold back, taunt his opponents, and Trash Talk with the best of them. Though he might occasionally suffer setbacks due to his Pride and underestimating opponents. Especially if they're mere mortals. This trope can also form a mild version of Beware the Superman or being the Superheroic equivalent of the Jerk Jock — in this case, whilst the Super might not actually be malevolent and will still do the right thing, they're still a bit of a bullying, arrogant Jerkass. In more cynical universes, the Smug Super may consider himself — and may even be widely considered — to be The Cape; they very much aren't, however. Many versions of this trope can be found on Anti-Hero. May be (in fact, quite often is) a target of Break the Haughty, and is generally a "stronger" Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy. Compare with Insufferable Genius (who places their pride more in their intelligence than their strength), Super Supremacist (an even more extreme variant), A God Am I (same), and Small Name, Big Ego (who thinks they're this trope). May overlap with Super Loser when the arrogance is undeserved... either by not having much power, not knowing how to use it well, or not having an ounce of charisma. A Smug Snake is similar but relies more on brains than actual brute force like a Smug Super. Nonetheless, they are as arrogant as the latter. Contrast the Boisterous Weakling, who likes to bark but doesn't have much to bite. Also contrast with Pro-Human Transhuman, who despite their powers, isn't a prick to normal humans. In any case, in a Cape Punk story, you can bet this is likely to be a quality of those possessing superpowers (unless it is the Fantastic Racism humans who are causing the problems).

Smug Super / int_11f34792	comment	In The Amazing Spider-Man (Dan Slott), Peter's short-lived new "sidekick", Alpha, played this so straight it hurt. Controlling Marvel's version of dark energy (Parker Particles), he quickly became full of himself. So much so that Peter had to drain him of his powers. (he got them back, but was much more humble due to the following events along with greater issues, like being blackmailed by the local crime boss.) .

Smug Super / int_12fd5db0	comment	Metro Man from Megamind does the hero's job perfectly well until he grows tired of it, anyway. However, he's the opposite of modest. He's had everything handed to him on a silver platter, and it shows — and the people worship him, and he loves it and plays along and shows off his powers. If he'd been sensitive rather than insensitive in this manner back when he was at school, Megamind might have become his friend instead of deciding he was only good enough to be a Diabolical Mastermind and Metro Man's Arch-Nemesis.

Smug Super / int_1331990c	comment	Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Homura Akemi has good reason to be smug. Barring perhaps Madoka's omnipotence, Homura probably has the strongest magic out of all of the cast: time manipulation. While she usually cleans up witches in a quick, brutal, and pragmatic fashion she makes it a point to drive home just how powerful she is when dealing with other magical girls; flashy entrances, teleporting around them, and bragging her ass off. And of course, this is nothing compared to how arrogant she is in The Movie as a demon. Homura is also called out for this behaviour by Sayaka in The Movie, who jams her clockwork shield as she tries to reverse time, then admonishes Homura's arrogance when it comes to her magic, all while Homura wears an Oh, Crap! expression.

Smug Super / int_1367cea0	comment	In Worm, Glory Girl, real name Victoria Dallon, behaves this way, though more in the Jerk Jock sense; taunting villains and talking down to criminals but still mostly being heroic. At least, she does for the first half of the serial or so; then a series of defeats, injuries, and personal tragedies take her down quite a few notches. By the time of the sequel Ward, she is much closer in attitude and behavior to the ideal of The Cape.

Smug Super / int_14494034	comment	Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Ghidorah is as powerful here as it was shown to be in MonsterVerse canon and then some, and it knows how powerful it is. Ghidorah is so powerful that it at one point held out in a fight against Godzilla and seven other Titans while in a weakened state, plus Ghidorah's Healing Factor is so powerful that death is only an inconvenience before Ghidorah regenerates. Ghidorah's heads aren't above boasting that they're "deathless", "eternal", and more powerful on their own than any of the Earth Titans, nor are the heads above viciously doling out Trash Talk or Breaking Speeches; although their high opinion of themselves can still veer into a superiority complex when Ghidorah is faced with the idea that it might be defeated for good one day or that others might take Ghidorah's heads for themselves.

This feat just pales in comparison to all the Reality Warpers and other powerful beings around him. This does not stop him from thinking that he is still the hottest thing in the Multiverse, though.

Smug Super / int_187d570a	comment	Series hero Dante is this, especially in Devil May Cry 4 where he is said to have surpassed the power of his father Sparda. Halfway through the game, you will face him as a Perfect Play A.I. boss that will kick your ass often and give you a lesson or two, while holding back. Indeed, after a long battle against what most players consider That One Boss, a cutscene plays in which Nero disarms Dante and makes a stabbing motion... only for Dante to easily ground him and put his sword right next to Nero's neck before he can stand up.

Smug Super / int_1b7fda65	comment	Played with in Miracleman but only briefly. After Miraclewoman convinces Miracleman that the best way to help the world is to take it over and force the governments of the world to accept widespread social and economic change, Miracleman has a moment like this when Margaret Thatcher tries to argue that the governments won't stand for it, only for Miracleman to give her a smug line about them really having no choice in the matter. This breaks Thatcher so badly that she has to be helped out, and Miraclewoman harshly scolds him for abusing the people he's supposed to help. This is especially notable since Miraclewoman is very open with her belief that metahumans are better than baseline ones, but also believes that there is no excuse for cruelty just because you're more powerful.

While he's completely heroic (as seen in Loki: Agent of Asgard), he's also a massive jerk to his friends, and an all-around self-righteous, condescending, judgmental asshole. Don't thank him for his heroism, he's just naturally that much more awesome than everybody.

Smug Super / int_1bd50652	comment	Bane certainly plays this straight, despite (thanks to Venom) only having modest Super-Strength in the grand scheme of DC, he still views himself as a titan of strength and a true superman. Helping this ego trip is that he's the one "who broke the Bat" and is definitely going to proudly wear that feat on his chest for the rest of his comic history, no matter how many times his own defeats at Batman's hands have outweigh it or the fact he's gotten his ass kicked even by Batman's own adoptive sons. Hell he was even like this before he broke Batman, he was very smug towards Killer Croc before snapping his arm. You know you're full of yourself when even Ra's al Ghul tells you to simmer down.

Smug Super / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: Emma Frost has always been one of these attitude-wise, in terms of her actual ability she originally had very little to be smug about. Though she was a telepath from day one, Frost was originally a minor talent compared to Xavier, being something of a one-trick telepathic pony whose specialty was the "Freaky Friday" Flip. While her smugness has not diminished any since her Heelâ€“Face Turn, her ability (and justification for being this) took a dramatic upswing, to the point that in modern comics she is sold as Xavier's equal - though in the Krakoan Age, she is, deep down, acutely aware that as a telepath, she doesn't measure up to Jean Grey and never has (because that level of telepathy requires being willing to open up and let your guard down in a way Emma simply isn't capable of). Juggernaut has been the epitome of this for decades with â€œNOBODY STOPS THE JUGGERNAUT!â€� being his Character Catchphrase and he certainly has the power and feats to back it up having kicked asses of Marvelâ€™s big wigs of power on multiple occasions despite suffering The Worf Effect regularly. Interestingly Juggs is actually a more sympathetic case given his backstory of being brutally abused by his father and made to feel worthless compared to Charles his stepbrother, so him getting a kick of being empowered is hardly surprising and he does manage pull a Heelâ€“Face Turn though it took a very long time to get there. Rogue started off as this when first appearing as a Dark Action Girl in the pages of Avengers Annual 10# with later issues continuously showing that she was smug bullying hick who used her Power Parasite mutation to get unfair advantage over the X-Men and Avengers. Itâ€™s a mark of Rogueâ€™s Character Development that after a Heel Realization she becomes as humble as the likes of Jean and Storm, probably aided by the fact she generally sees her mutation as a curse that could harm those close to her, rather than something to be smug about. Though granted she does slip back into this now and then, smugly weaving and dancing in between Johnnyâ€™s fire blasts during Contest of Champions with a smirk on her face. While not one of these in the regular Marvel timeline, Fabian Cortez notably becomes one of these in X-Men '92, as evidenced by this gem of a line: Monet St. Croix was known as the girl who had everything (including being so good-looking that some people thought it was a mutant power) and she was arrogant with it. It was especially galling during the time after House of M when so many mutants lost their powers. Monet still had her multiple powers and would go around showing off her flight. Depowered but still grotesque Dreg-level mutants in Mutant Town would yell at her to stop flaunting as it offended them, but she'd tell them off and keep on showing them up. This behaviour did catch up with Monet in the World War Hulk saga, as she touts herself as invulnerable right to Hulkâ€™s face â€” at which the Jade Giant punts her into the sky saying â€œGo be in invulnerable in Jerseyâ€�. Gladiator of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard has affected this attitude in his more Jerkass moments. Being a cosmic Expy of Superman above justifies it somewhat, but he's just as often subjected to Break the Haughty scenarios. His attitude is further justified by his powers being affected by his emotional state: self-confidence makes him stronger while doubting himself can result in him temporarily losing them altogether. Magneto was introduced as this in the original Lee-Kirby run being a metal flinging supervillain asshole. Hell even after his deeply sympathetic Holocaust survivor background was established Mags still often displays extreme haughtiness and arrogance similar to his son Quicksilver. In Secret Wars (1984) when finding himself among the heroes Magneto outright declared none of them were equal to him save Thor the Physical God and in spite of multiple cases of this behaviour biting him on the ass or him coming over to the X-Menâ€™s side he still not quite let go of his superpowered arrogance. Magneto tries justifying this attitude by saying a gentle and humble leader cannot protect mutantkind and Depending on the Writer if that sentiment is ultimately correct or not. It probably helps that Magneto was originally alike to Doctor Doom (one of the most egotistic characters in Marvel period) and while he went through Divergent Character Evolution, a lot of that early smug douchery still lingers on. Majestor Vulcan, The Emperor of the Shi'ar Empire and the infamous Third Summers Brother, gained omega-level gloating abilities when he won the Superpower Lottery. Being a Person of Mass Destruction capable of matching the Inhuman King Black Bolt, this attitude is not entirely unwarranted, but Vulcan's sheer power is often overshadowed by his being an Unskilled, but Strong type with little experience fighting powered combatants. This, and his omega-level arrogance, have been exploited by X-Men to facilitate his defeat on more than one occasion.

Smug Super / int_243f5fd3	comment	Sonic The Hedgehog: Sonic is quick to taunt his enemies and be very vocal about his Super-Speed, but how much he does so depends from time to time. As time has gone on, Sonic's taunting has become reminding Eggman how reliable his schemes tend to be (that is, not very reliable at all), which, while still very smug, is also completely valid. Shadow is even worse. He likes lording it over the heroes as well as the villains, not just regarding his speed but every power he has as the "Ultimate Life Form". Telling people how inferior they are to him is practically his hobby. This backfires in Sonic Forces, where his No-Holds-Barred Beatdown and post-beatdown mockery of Infinite inspires the latter to redouble his efforts and accept Dr. Eggman's Phantom Ruby experiments. Infinite of Sonic Forces takes this so far that it actually works against him. He's so arrogant and obsessed with being The Dreaded that he has a habit of sparing people he probably should just kill, just to rub their defeat in their faces. Sonic and the Avatar beat him, and in the end, even Dr. Eggman is frustrated by his obnoxious behavior and withdraws his support.

Smug Super / int_251e67c5	comment	Justice League of America: Justice League International: Guy Gardner was incredibly arrogant. Especially ironic, as he hadn't really won the Super Power Lottery; he was one of the original Green Lantern Corps and wasn't even the greatest GL on Earth (let alone the greatest hero) in anyone's mind but his own. He's gone through some Character Development since then. Guy still has his ego in spades, but he can back it up. He's about the best you can get when you've got a smug super on your hands nowadays. Hal Jordan has his moments. In Justice League (2011), most of his dialogue is boasting about how awesome he is while at the same time making jabs at how useless Batman and Aquaman are in comparison. Needless to say, his over-confidence tends to get him into trouble while Batman and Aquaman, despite lacking his level of power, tend to get a handle on things more effectively. Zig-zagged with Hal in JLA Year One: he acts like a jerk, but later admits that he's just overcompensating because he's not sure how good a leader he is. The simple fact that he's not the leader is lost to him until Aquaman points it out. Quiet, unassuming Barry is the natural leader, because people actually listen to him. JLA: Act of God: The main premise is that all superhumans on Earth are Brought Down to Normal as Laser-Guided Karma for being too arrogant. Ironically, Batman, who had been touted by the comic as utterly humble and modest, becomes insufferably arrogant once all of the superhumans being Brought Down to Normal and the Powered Armor heroes either having their tech stolen or being unceremoniously killed left Badass Normal heroes as the only ones left.

Especially ironic, as he hadn't really won the Super Power Lottery; he was one of the original Green Lantern Corps and wasn't even the greatest GL on Earth (let alone the greatest hero) in anyone's mind but his own. He's gone through some Character Development since then. Guy still has his ego in spades, but he can back it up. He's about the best you can get when you've got a smug super on your hands nowadays.

Reverse Flash is by far the worst case of this when it comes to the Flash villains as he absolutely relishes rubbing his superiority in on any other super (especially other speedsters' faces) every chance he gets. He gloats over the fact heâ€™s an Invincible Villain Time Master so often that itâ€™s particularly satisfying to see him suffer a Villainous Breakdown at the hands of Dr. Manhattan in Doomsday Clock. Barry himself despite usually being the Nice Guy can be written like this, such as at the beginning of the The New 52 where he runs past Superman and boasts thatâ€™s never been touched before Supes gives him the Finger Poke of Doom. Even outside of the New 52, Barry can't help being pretty smug about how ludicrously fast he is like the infamous panel of him explaining he can perceive events in less than attosecond â€” yet inevitably still trips or is beaten by something as simple as slippery ice courtesy of Captain Cold.

He's vicious, arrogant, and pretty angry at the world for not thinking of him as a hero without actually proving it (just beating up thugs and possibly hindering the police instead of helping them). He comes off as someone who thinks by having superpowers, The Call is theirs to answer as they see fit and not taking into consideration how they can use their powers to better the world. Justified to a degree, since he was on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against the one who shot Uncle Ben, but he's still a fairly self-centered hero until he finally has a chance to prove it against The Lizard.

His hobbies include: drinking, taunting bad guys (including a 10-year-old bully) by throwing them in the air and barely catching them, drinking, causing more damage to the town than the bad guys ever do, drinking, and generally just doing whatever he wants without giving a shit. He manages to piss off almost all of the town at one point, and when they threaten to arrest him for all the crap he's done, his response is "Bitches can try". Anyone who taunts him can expect to have their head shoved up another man's ass.

Her meetings with Roman Torchwick typically involve waving a handful of fire in front of his face, a not-so-subtle reminder that if he doesn't comply, he's ash. When they meet, Raven Branwen guesses that Cinder clearly has a problem with egomania. However, this also shows just how fragile her ego is. When Jaune Arc barely grazes her face in battle, she kicks him to the ground and rants at his audacity. For all of her poise and strength, Cinder is little more than a bully who lives to kick the "little people" and keep them down. Volume 8 shows she learned this attitude from her Wicked Stepmotner who would torture her with a shock collar every time she stepped out of the line.

In Justice League (2011), most of his dialogue is boasting about how awesome he is while at the same time making jabs at how useless Batman and Aquaman are in comparison. Needless to say, his over-confidence tends to get him into trouble while Batman and Aquaman, despite lacking his level of power, tend to get a handle on things more effectively. Zig-zagged with Hal in JLA Year One: he acts like a jerk, but later admits that he's just overcompensating because he's not sure how good a leader he is. The simple fact that he's not the leader is lost to him until Aquaman points it out. Quiet, unassuming Barry is the natural leader, because people actually listen to him.

He even smiled as one of Batman's rogues tried to run away from him, and he used just a little Super-Speed to stop him cold. Leaving the poor man dumbstruck. There are also a few times he covertly uses his superpowers while being Clark Kent to make his life/job easier, usually smiling to himself as he does it. He's also shown in a flashback to his high school years smugly dominating a normal student at basketball, and throwing him around in the process.

Smug Super / int_38fa34eb	comment	Wonder Woman: Like Superman above, Wondy has not been above this behaviour despite her usual benevolence as many modern writers nudge Dianaâ€™s well meaning Spirited Competitor Feminist Fantasy boldness over to more Spartan-like arrogant haughtiness towards opponents she deems inferior. This may be slightly justified in later continuities given Top God Zeus who is her father, is an Older Than Feudalism example of the Smug Super. Though regardless Dianaâ€™s default attitude when not tapping into her heritage is still an All-Loving Hero. Artemis, Wondyâ€™s Anti-Hero Substitute is a straight example of this as she looks her down her nose at pretty much everyone including her sister amazon Diana. While she does get nicer in more modern stories such as Red Hood and the Outlaws, she still makes her entrance to Jason in said run as smug warrioress full force, treating him like a fragile little mortal whoâ€™s made the mistake of getting in her way. (Pre-Flashpoint) Hercules was incredibly arrogant about his abilities and liked to smugly and snidely imply or state he was better than Wonder Woman no matter how many times she proved him wrong. He also seemed to think he should be allowed to boss her and Wonder Girl around, which did not work out well for him. A lot of the Amazons are like this in the New 52 and Rebirth, while some (such as Hippolyta) at least respect Superman and few other heroes, most of them look down upon outsiders with Batman in particular getting â€œWho does this mortal idiot in a cape think he is?â€� treatment from some of the more ill-tempered or xenophobic. Averted when comes to Steve Trevor in the Golden Age and Rebirth as the Amazons respect him as a fellow soldier. The Greek Gods themselves are just like in mythology extremely smug with the more villainous depictions in the New 52 crossing the line into very insufferable and punchable deities. Apollo in particular saw no problem with calling Diana a slut in front Superman since as a god he views them as less than dirt and wasnâ€™t at all happy that this behaviour directly resulting in him getting clocked senseless by Clark.

Smug Super / int_3aeb1c75	comment	Dragon Ball has many, especially in regards to the villains: In the original Dragon Ball, Demon King Piccolo believed himself to be the strongest being on Earth and that no human could ever defeat him. To be fair, he was right: no human ever beat him; too bad Goku's a Saiyan. This is Vegeta's Fatal Flaw, to the extent that when fighting Cell and winning in the Android Saga of Dragon Ball Z, he actually went as far as to let Cell absorb Android 18 and become perfect for the sake of a good fight, arrogantly refusing to consider the possibility that he would lose until Cell beats him senseless. This decision ends up biting him big time and costing a good number of others their lives. Frieza may very well be the poster boy for this trope. Having spent years as the strongest being in the universe, with no one else even close to matching him, Frieza is firmly convinced that no one in the universe could ever possibly defeat him... which is also his greatest fear. Cell is just as bad as Frieza, if not worse. After becoming perfect, he set up a martial arts tournament solely to show off his power and lets Goku and the Z Fighters train to get stronger for ten days so he can have more fun fighting them, never once considering the possibility that they could actually defeat him. To be fair, it still looked like they wouldn't be able to, but then Goku throws Cell the Villain Ball as part of a Batman Gambit, and that's when Cell's smugness really ends up costing him big time. Dragon Ball Fighter Z takes this further extremes as Cell cannot go a minute without kissing his own ass and looking down his nose at literally everyone else, even those who are explicitly stronger than him. The closest he comes to acknowledging someone is more powerful than him is being annoyed and salty in his pre-battle dialogue. Prior to learning the hard way via Cell that there is Always Someone Better, Android 17 was pretty much the Red Ribbon Army's version of Vegeta, going so far as to mock the Saiyan prince for his own pride (which 17 hypocritically considered foolish) while boasting that he was the ultimate android. While a shade stronger than his sister 18, and leagues stronger than the later Androids 19 and 20, 17's strength was matched by Piccolo (after fusing with Kami) and eclipsed by both 16 and Cell. Unlike the other examples here, he learned something from his defeat, coming back as a much more humble and reasonable character in Dragon Ball Super. Gotenks also has this as a Fatal Flaw in the Majin Buu Saga. Throughout his fight with Super Buu, rather than just finishing him off, he was more concerned with showing off and looking cool... which has long-lasting consequences. Even Goku himself is prone to this, such as after he defeated Demon King Piccolo, while fighting the Ginyu Force, and telling Vegeta point-blank that he's much stronger than him. Though, unlike the others, he's usually smart enough not to let it override his common sense. Beerus when he shows up in Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, he's typically bullying the puny mortals and gobbling up their food before blowing the planet up. Granted, he's a lot more benevolent than the above examples like Frieza, he's still smug about how powerful he is. Like Vegeta, this is also Gohan's Fatal Flaw, as pointed out by Piccolo in Dragon Ball Super's Universal Survival Arc. Gohan gets incredibly cocky when he beats his opponents down and he drops his guard long enough for his opponents to fight back or get the upper hand with Piccolo referencing his fight with Super Buu. As part of his training, he seeks to remove that from Gohan. He only ever shows this again as Beast Gohan in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero but unlike in the Buu Saga he kills the villain before any tables can turn. Speaking of Super Hero, Gamma 2 is a textbook Smug Super who is so utterly cocky and full of himself he assumes he easily killed Piccolo with his powerful Ray Gun and didnâ€™t even check for a body or remains before flying home to the base. He remains pretty smug for most of the film until Piccolo awakens his own Super Mode and wrecks him, after being humbled heâ€™s nicer and actually pulls a Heroic Sacrifice against Cell Max.

Smug Super / int_43576f5	comment	Supernatural: Lucifer. The only things he sees as further beneath him than humans are actual gods. He can back it up, too. Death one-ups Lucifer in his first appearance in "Two Minutes To Midnight". When Dean asks if Death is going to kill him, Death tells Dean that the latter has an overinflated sense of his own importance and boasts that in his view the entire Milky Way galaxy is barely out of his diapers. He then goes further by informing Dean that not only is he as old as God if not older, but at the end of time, he will kill God personally. Finally, he gives Dean his ring, the final piece needed to defeat Lucifer, because he considers it an insult to be bound by someone as far beneath him as Lucifer. Unlike most of the other examples, he's generally a benevolent force. Archangel Raphael goes a step further in "The Man Who Would Be King": Zachariah is a rare combination of this trope and Smug Snake. He's a Seraph of the Lord and boasts that he's the last person the Winchesters want on their bad side, even worse than Lucifer. A few episodes later, Dean kills him without breaking a sweat. Castiel is generally relatively modest but becomes the epitome of this at the end of S6 when he absorbs the souls of Purgatory. Dick Roman, and Leviathans in general, regard everyone else as beneath them, human, monster, angel, and demon alike.

Smug Super / int_469771d2	comment	The Powerpuff Girls. Blossom is normally modest, but she can be very high-and-mighty at times, whether it's related to school or her status as the leader. Buttercup even more so. While Blossom is at least rather tactical and rational-minded for the large part, Buttercup is an egotistical Leeroy Jenkins that sometimes escalates defeating a villain into borderline sadistic mugging.

Smug Super / int_52837809	comment	Gou Shijima (Kamen Rider Mach) reprises this trope in Metroid: Kamen Rider Generations. Regardless of what situation he gets into, he is really into Chewing the Scenery with his smugness with over-the-top schticks. Gandrayda, much like in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, is always full of herself and enjoys Trolling her opponents. Samus may verge into this, depending on the writer's perspective. Any Metroid or Super Smash Bros. fics would usually write Samus using this trope. She takes this trope more literally whenever she wears the Athena Suit. And Samus perfectly knows how tough she becomes, considering her accomplishments as a famed bounty hunter in the galaxy. By the time the Ridley Destroyer Armor is introduced, Micchy puts a subverted (or to some extent inverted) variation of this trope, albeit a newfound confidence upon using the armor. When not wearing said battlesuit and is using either his Lockseeds and Sengoku or Genesis Drivers, he is level-headed as a usual Jerk with a Heart of Gold.

Both are super skilled and super arrogant humans who are rather similar in some unexpected ways, seeing Emu as a nuisance and showing little regard for the feelings of their patients. Hiiro is the self-professed "surgeon who never fails", and gives a "no thank you" to anyone he sees as a nuisance. Taiga, on the other hand, as admitted by Kuroto Dan, has undeniable skills as a Rider. What makes this even better, is that both hate each other and will fight every time they meet.

Finding a goal for himself did not change this one bit. However, he's more inclined to get involved with other people's problems — with the intention of helping them - because he sees it as part of his status as a god-like warrior. In contrast, Death the Kid is matter-of-fact about being a god but isn't at all arrogant about it. EXCALIBUR!!!!note (ïº§ç›Šïº¨) Every time he appears he ends up annoying everybody by going on and on about how awesome he is and various other things. The one time a Filler character was actually willing to put up with him long enough to use him as a weapon they were essentially invincible together, at least until said character changed his mind at the end of the episode.

Smug Super / int_5cfb879b	comment	Similar to the Inhumans, New Gods of New Genesis typically display this towards the inhabitants of the regular non-4th dimensional universe. They have come to respect the Justice League and other heroes but still view themselves as the greatest due to their connection to the Source Wall, despite Kryptonians and other powerhouses consistently giving them a run for their money. Darkseid and his Elite Mooks of Apokolips are the worst when it comes to this with them constantly stroking their own egos and writing off their multiple defeats as mere set backs. Darkseid in particular relishes rubbing his God of Evil supremacy in the faces of his opponents e.g his gloating when Batman in the Hellbat is fighting him â€œWhy do you Earthlings continue to delude yourselves you are godsâ€¦ when we already existâ€�. It is very satisfying to see the occasions when Darkseidâ€™s assertion in his unmatched might is crushed, whether it be from Superman beating him up or the time the Empty Hand in Justice League Incarnate proved to be his superior â€” even at full power with the lord of Apokolips literally running away as pathetically as any street-level thug before getting stomped.

He expresses scorn at the Black Bulls for even trying to put up a fight against him since he considers them to be insects in comparison. His confidence in his own strength proves to be his downfall. He spent so long buffed by his Beast Magic that he had forgotten what his actual natural physical limits really were. When he let Asta stab him with the Demon Dweller Sword, thinking it would give him the upper hand, he didn't realize until it was too late that he had just depowered himself. And without his magic, he was helpless. Thanks to his Body Magic being enhanced to the point he can regenerate from any injury and not die, Dante sees himself as unbeatable. Combined with his powerful Gravity Magic that can level an entire forest and form small black orbs that destroy everything in his path, Dante believes that he'll crush everything and always win.

Itâ€™s a mark of Rogueâ€™s Character Development that after a Heel Realization she becomes as humble as the likes of Jean and Storm, probably aided by the fact she generally sees her mutation as a curse that could harm those close to her, rather than something to be smug about. Though granted she does slip back into this now and then, smugly weaving and dancing in between Johnnyâ€™s fire blasts during Contest of Champions with a smirk on her face.

Tony is pretty damn awesome and knows it, so often feels the need in modern comics to let the world know as well â€” as frequently as possible and no matter how aggravating it gets. Tony is more than confident heâ€™s just as smart as Reed and believes his Powered Armour technology can take on gods and like Reed often has it blow up in his face. At other times heâ€™s more got the Mask of Confidence as heâ€™s really a deeply troubled man still haunted by his father Howardâ€™s Might Makes Right ideals and emotional abuse into thinking he was too weak to solve the worldâ€™s problems and overcompensates as an adult with more power. Tony is often a good foil to Doctor Doom in this regard as theyâ€™re both arrogant geniuses but Tony at least can humble himself, while it takes literal godhood and a cosmic Villainous Breakdown for Victor to concede heâ€™s a lesser man morally speaking.

They view themselves as having transcended both their human nature and the controls placed on them, and are prone to looking down on both the masses of unaltered humanity for their mundane nature and on other Broken due to perceiving them as cruder and less in control of themselves. Princess: The Hopeful: This is actually a core part of the ethos of the Court of Mirrors. Mirrors philosophy teaches that, by virtue of being chosen by the Light, Princesses are naturally superior to everyone else, and that as such it is a Princess's duty to take charge and save the day and everyone else's duty to shut up and follow the Princess's lead. Werewolf: The Apocalypse: The ancient Garou viewed humans as inferior creatures to be bullied, ruled over, and culled when their population grew too large. The Veil forces modern Garou to hide their identities from normal humans, but some still see humans as inferior and expendable. Werewolf: The Forsaken: This is flipped around as part of the effort to bring werewolves away from the superhero archetypes and back toward monsterdom. Werewolves are actually genetically/magically programmed to protect and serve humanity like supernatural cops and actually favor relative humility in human terms (making the whole "random killing rage" thing kind of unfortunate...) but they tend to be supercilious dicks to other _spirits_ instead, because of the whole "top of the food chain" thing.

Smug Super / int_701f0ece	comment	Femto from Berserk, who is actually Griffith reborn only much more openly evil. Not only does he show no remorse for what he did to Guts during the Eclipse, but each time he is seen speaking in his alter ego form he is snide, egotistical, haughty, and just downright mean, taunting Guts at every chance he can get about how much more powerful he is compared to his mortal former friend and comrade. This is even shown during the actual Eclipse, though nonverbally, as Femto smugly smiled at Guts as he raped his lover Casca right in front of him, thwarting every attempt Guts made to save her. Makes sense since the rape was used to profess Griffith's power over Guts and Casca.

Having won the Super Power Lottery, she is not only imbued with the traditional Flying Brick powers but also capable of Thinking Up Portals to the level that she is a Dimensional Traveler and capable of Time Travel. She's also a Warrior Princess from a dimension that's a lesbian utopia. And she sees no reason not to revel in just how good her life has been to her, nor to avoid looking down on others; at one point she semi-retires from superheroism because it annoys her that people expect her to save them, whilst at another, she casually waves it off as unimportant when an incredulous soldier points out that she could have stopped Hitler, but never bothered because she doesn't care.

Smug Super / int_7668653a	comment	Grunt from Mass Effect 2. Since he was created and genetically engineered to be the most powerful Krogan ever, it obviously meant he wouldn't have been complete without a matching ego. To a greater extent, Miranda Lawson. She's quite smug about her status as a genetically enhanced Canon Sue as well as being The Dragon of Cerberus. While she does admit that she's not completely perfect, she still believes she's as close as you can get. Then deconstructed as she realises despite all her gifts, she'll never have what Shepard has, the determination to continue even with the world against them, and the drive to achieve every impossible task set before them. They both pale in comparison to Harbinger, whose quotes consist entirely of Badass Boasts about how inferior the characters are, how their efforts are futile, and how superior Harbinger and his kind are. Harbinger and his kind apparently inherited this trait from the Leviathans, the race that created the Catalyst. The Leviathans consider themselves the greatest species to ever exist in the entire universe. Being driven to the edge of extinction and forced into hiding in a deep dark ocean hasn't diminished their egos one bit.

While not in a mean or dismissive way, "We Need to Talk" shows her love of humans as being less respect and more thinking they're cute animals, though in "Story for Steven" it's clear she does believe that humans should prioritize their dreams and aspirations over playing with her. This stems from her upbringing as Pink Diamond, who as a Diamond counts as a Physical God among Gemkind and whose family (White Diamond, Blue Diamond, and Yellow Diamond) sees themselves as superior to all living beings. Greg eventually takes her to task over her Condescending Compassion towards humans — him included — and by the time she has Steven, it's safe to assume she got better.

Nearly every single one of them has extremely high furyoku levels, know it, and believe that the shamans beneath them (as in, every shaman that doesn't follow Hao) are weaklings and should all be destroyed with the humans in order to make Hao's Shaman-only kingdom. Thankfully, Yoh and his friends cut them down a whole lotta pegs. And Hao's case, it took the combined furyoku of both Yoh and all the shamans in the world. Tao Ren was also this before his Character Development kicked in and tempered it a little.

Smug Super / int_7aaf9e41	comment	Batman: The Caped Crusader himself became one of these when Superman's powers got transferred to him. Superman eventually took his powers back because Batman was acting like a total dick and bullying the villains after they had already surrendered. Averted by most of Batman's rogues, due to them mostly being unpowered Badass Normal types. Clayface and Poison Ivy are among the few Bat rogues who occasionally indulge in this behaviours, though it's usually kept in check by Clayface's Power Incontinence and Ivy's love of the Heelâ€“Face Revolving Door respectively. Bane certainly plays this straight, despite (thanks to Venom) only having modest Super-Strength in the grand scheme of DC, he still views himself as a titan of strength and a true superman. Helping this ego trip is that he's the one "who broke the Bat" and is definitely going to proudly wear that feat on his chest for the rest of his comic history, no matter how many times his own defeats at Batman's hands have outweigh it or the fact he's gotten his ass kicked even by Batman's own adoptive sons. Hell he was even like this before he broke Batman, he was very smug towards Killer Croc before snapping his arm. You know you're full of yourself when even Ra's al Ghul tells you to simmer down.

Subverted with Chad, who only initially comes off as smug. In fact, he is simply blunt and socially inept due to focusing all his efforts on training and suppressing his emotions. Michael also fits early on. He gets better by Book 4. Generally averted among actual Heroes since there are strict physical and ethical requirements in order to graduate the four-year Training from Hell as a licensed Hero.

In Tsukasa's case, it serves the plot purpose of "Is he actually a hero or a villain?", whereas with Soji it's just because he's Soji. Kaito Kumon of Kamen Rider Gaim also qualifies. He's a Social Darwinist Byronic Hero who makes filibusters of erasing the strong who exploit the weak, he never boasts about his own power, and more than anything he believes that it's human nature to seek power. The team at Aesir subs has noted that this makes Kaito's dialogue very difficult to translate. For added bonus, he's also an Expy of Seto Kaiba, so it's not surprising. Kamen Rider Ghost has Adel. After usurping his father and ascending to the throne as the Ganma Emperor and ousted his brother from the Ganma world, he'll never shut up that he's the perfect being who will plan to create a perfect world into fruition. When he is introduced to the Ganmaizers, he dishes out a Curb-Stomp Battle against the main Rider and fuses with the remaining 11 Ganmaizers to become the Perfect Ganmaizer. In the end, it became his Fatal Flaw. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid provides us two Dr Jerks in the forms of Hiiro Kagami (Kamen Rider Brave) and Taiga Hanaya (Kamen Rider Snipe). Both are super skilled and super arrogant humans who are rather similar in some unexpected ways, seeing Emu as a nuisance and showing little regard for the feelings of their patients. Hiiro is the self-professed "surgeon who never fails", and gives a "no thank you" to anyone he sees as a nuisance. Taiga, on the other hand, as admitted by Kuroto Dan, has undeniable skills as a Rider. What makes this even better, is that both hate each other and will fight every time they meet.

While Superman may usually avert this, his Rogues Gallery however Zod, Brainiac, Mr. Mxyzptlk, Mongul and especially Lobo absolutely play this straight and relish rubbing their god-like powers or planet crushing mightiness right in Clark and anyoneâ€™s else face, though it usually comes back to bite them.

Prequel DLC Torna: The Golden County reveals she inherited this from her initial Driver, Addam. And then it's Deconstructed. The attitude also blows up in her face spectacularly when it allows her to be goaded into the most destructive excesses of the Aegis War. Pyra was created to be kind, timid, and conflict-averse entirely on purpose, as Mythra hated herself for what her cockiness had wrought.

When he transfers to U.A., he's utterly convinced that he'll be the top of the class and become the world's most famous superhero. He's subsequently shocked to realize that not only are the other students a match for him, but nearly everybody hates him for his smug and violent attitude. Meanwhile, Izuku is incredibly popular, both for his newly-acquired Quirk and kinder personality. Endeavor fits this pretty well. He may be a hero but heâ€™s an Abusive Parent, obsessed with being number one, has a nasty temper and his use of the Japanese pronoun â€œkisamaâ€� (equivalent to calling everyone a bastard)with pretty much everyone shows his arrogance. He does try to change after All Might retires and he actually makes number one, along with having a Heel Realization after finding out the truth about his presumed dead oldest son. The spinoff My Hero Academia: Vigilantes has Captain Celebrity, an American superhero whose fame-obsessed ways and casual attitude regarding collateral damage led to him being unable to find work in his country. He refuses to perform any major superhero work (including saving people from a burning building) unless there's a camera nearby, though he's willing to give credit where credit's due when it comes to other heroes. Captain Celebrity's entire character arc revolves around learning humility and becoming a true hero, and in the process, he becomes more popular than ever.

Ironically, Batman, who had been touted by the comic as utterly humble and modest, becomes insufferably arrogant once all of the superhumans being Brought Down to Normal and the Powered Armor heroes either having their tech stolen or being unceremoniously killed left Badass Normal heroes as the only ones left.

Smug Super / int_99c0e061	comment	Thanos, full force. Heâ€™s one of the most powerful beings in the verse and considers even the likes of Galactus, the Living Tribunal, the Eternity and Celestials themselves all beneath him. Whatâ€™s worse is that he has actually had multiple moments of humbleness and realisation that his not worthy, but by next week heâ€™s back to being a self-satisfied purple god wannabe. On one occasion when he was fighting Mar-Vell and Drax after gaining omnipotence, Thanosâ€™s hubris was literally a factor in the battle as when Drax claimed at the Titanâ€™s gloating that he would destroy the universe if meant killing Thanos, Mar-Vell had tell Drax to shut up because all heâ€™s doing is empowering Thanos by pumping his ego up to the maximum. His Elite Mooks the Black Order as seen in Infinity are just as bad if not even more annoyingly smug as they see their powerful weapons, abilities and immortality as enough reason to look down their noses at the Puny Earthlings with Corvus Glaive and Promixa Midnight in particular being merely amused by Hulk. They donâ€™t take it well when the tide turns against them with Midnight having quite the Villainous Breakdown when unable to kill Luke Cage.

Smug Super / int_9db1766a	comment	Devil May Cry: Series hero Dante is this, especially in Devil May Cry 4 where he is said to have surpassed the power of his father Sparda. Halfway through the game, you will face him as a Perfect Play A.I. boss that will kick your ass often and give you a lesson or two, while holding back. Indeed, after a long battle against what most players consider That One Boss, a cutscene plays in which Nero disarms Dante and makes a stabbing motion... only for Dante to easily ground him and put his sword right next to Nero's neck before he can stand up. Dante's brother Vergil is just as arrogant, if not more so.

Smug Super / int_9e2f90f4	comment	One Piece: Most villains are this way, particularly the Logia-type Devil Fruit users — though it should be noted those who embody this trope tend to be the weaker ones, or at least less world-weary, making it somewhat of a Deconstruction. Smoker, Crocodile, and the Admirals, some of the most powerful Logia types in the series, are under no delusions that they are invincible. Eneru considered himself a god, and he was able to back it up (at least until he met Luffy), but he had never been to the Blue Seas, so he at least had an excuse. The rest, however, serve as the Deconstruction — they rely on their Nigh-Invulnerability so much that once they get to the New World, they're easily curb-stomped, and get massive blows to their egos and/or killed. Sanji's brothers Ichiji, Niji and Yonji are particularly hatable examples of this as they love flaunting their superhuman prowess and consider everyone beneath them. They even has this attitude towards their own siblings, having tormented Sanji for being born a regular human and Ichiji even called Reiju a weakling for getting struck down by Big Mom, only to get stomped by Katakuri moments later. Yonji in particular so confident he could still bully Sanji after he had long since Took a Level in Badass, that he blustered over the fact Sanji was able to beat him and refused to believe it. This attitude goes hand in hand with the fact Judge removed their empathy at birth, so they're incapable of any humbleness. Some of the Straw Hats also fall into this: Although Luffy isn't overly prideful and tends to know where he stands on the world stage, that doesn't stop him from letting his power go to his head at times. Because of his rubber abilities, he doesn't bother to dodge bullets, finding it amusing to bounce them back while proclaiming that bullets can't hurt him. In One Piece Film: Z this bites him when Z shoots him with a seastone bullet and mocks him by saying that such things wouldn't work on the monsters in the New World, but good for taking out cocky punks who become overly reliant on their ability. Zoro knows he's one of the top swordsmen in the world and will tell people when they're outmatched against him. Before he fought Dracule "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk, he thought he was close to being the strongest in the world, only to get a rude awakening that being the best swordsman in East Blue meant crap since it is the weakest of all the seas. He promptly returned to this attitude post-Time Skip (after, ironically, getting training from Mihawk) — while he openly acknowledges he isn't the Greatest Swordsmen in the World yet, he considers everyone besides the Four Emperors and their top officers completely beneath him. Sanji zigzags this, he often looks down upon other super martial artists and fighting styles, considering Fishman Karate cute compared the Training from Hell he got from Zeff learning his martial arts style and when Wanze exclaimed over Sanji kicking him in the face 12 times so fast the panels donâ€™t show it and asks if heâ€™s actually secretly strong, Sanji just replies â€œYouâ€™re just super weakâ€�. At other times, Sanji is more humble. He admits to Usopp thereâ€™s simply things he cannot do that the latter can, such as sniping from improbable ranges, and because of that Usopp is the only one who can save Robin. Later, when trapped by Black Maria and unable to fight back due to Zeffâ€™s principles he calls out to Robin for help, which she answers. After awakening his dormant powers, however, Sanji dips back into this, just letting Jinbeiâ€™s clone S-Shark Megaton Punch him in the face â€” with no effect but a smirk on his face. Franky takes great pride in all his cyborg abilities and believes that he's one of the best shipwrights in the world with the greatest ship, the Thousand Sunny. Of course, since he was taught by the former best shipwright in the world, and was one of the best in Water 7, which has a reputation for having the best in the world, such a claim is justified. Nami isn't smug about her fighting ability, but she firmly believes that she is the best navigator in the world. So far, no one has been able to challenge her on that claim. All of the Straw Hats became smug supers during Fishman Island. While fighting Hody and his crew, they showed off all their new techniques, even when it was complete overkill. Their smugness is even noted by the citizens.

Smug Super / int_9eddb2fb	comment	Irredeemable: A number of the heroes fit this blend. Qubit is an Insufferable Genius who has little trouble reminding people he's the smartest guy in any room. When The Plutonian was still a hero, he played up some false modesty, but after he turned evil he promptly dropped it and had no qualms rubbing his power into everyone's faces. But the best example from the comic is The Survivor, who's entirely too pleased with himself about his abilities and uses his power to do whatever he feels like after getting it. The existence of smug supers is something that the series examines in detail. At one point the heroes discover a man with superpowers on par with The Survivor, but who decides to never use them and instead became a humble monk out of fear of what such power could do to him.

Grolla also shows signs of this when she, as a boss, defeats Tia in the main game when Tia herself is on her last life. Also, in her own side-game, Rosenkreuzstilette Grollschwert, when she fights the Cross Wall, she calls to it to show her its worst after it attempts to run her down and says that there's nothing her blade can't cut. Later, when she confronts the Count, who believes her to be a spy hired by the Church to kill his daughter Iris, she pities him for being deceived by his own flesh and blood, and in the Final Stage, when Iris finally reveals herself to be a reincarnation of Rosenkreuz and boasts her claims to be a child of God himself, Grolla doesn't care whether she's a god, a human, or even an insect since she's still willing to rip her apart just the same.

When he obtains his powers, the bullied Peter Parker thinks about how much better they make him than other people, how he'll be able to make money with them and rub his success in his tormenters' faces. He refuses to stop a burglar because he considers it beneath him... and then his entire world is shattered when that same burglar murders his surrogate father. Spidey further subverts it with his insults and quips. He smugly mocks his enemies and lets them know how much they suck compared to him. In most cases, this is less arrogance and a way to throw them off their game so they're easier to beat. Other times, it's to deal with the stress and deal of being in constant danger, especially back as a teenager. Even then, Depending on the Writer he still shows considerable actual cockiness against weaker foes and allies. Spider-Gwen since it does a lot of Revisiting the Roots of the themes of the original Lee-Ditko run deconstructs this with Gwen who is bitten by the spider in this continuity. Her newfound powers exhilarated Gwen as she mocked and belittled opponents and let her badassey go to her head, and didnâ€™t even bother actually going out of her way to help people since she preferred showboating. This behaviour sets a terrible precedent for her Peter Parker who wanted to be strong like her and without the Uncle Ben incident becomes the Lizard in a desperate attempt to be more than a pushover. After Gwen unknowingly mortally wounded Peter and he reverted to human form in her arms to die, Gwen finally learns like mainstream Peter that With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility. In The Amazing Spider-Man (Dan Slott), Peter's short-lived new "sidekick", Alpha, played this so straight it hurt. Controlling Marvel's version of dark energy (Parker Particles), he quickly became full of himself. So much so that Peter had to drain him of his powers. (he got them back, but was much more humble due to the following events along with greater issues, like being blackmailed by the local crime boss.) . In Spider-Geddon, Spidey uses this trope to explain why Morlun keeps losing to him — as Morlun is much more stronger and faster than him, he should have killed Spidey in their first encounter. However, because he believes his powers and birthright make him superior, he doesn't think things through. Thus, when he loses, it catches him off-guard and he gets angry. Many of Spideyâ€™s Rogues Gallery are like this. The two most common offenders are Scorpion and Electro who frequently act like theyâ€™re untouchable thanks to their great abilities and constantly right off the fact Peter has kicked their asses like clockwork as just the â€œWall Crawler got luckyâ€�, indeed their beef with Spidey unlike other villains is largely due to the fact heâ€™s defeated them so often. Green Goblin is also a case of this to increasingly deranged levels just see his one lines after slipping back into the goblin persona in Dark Reign: â€œI AM GOD! AHAHAHAHAâ€�. He even boosts he couldâ€™ve killed Arch-Enemy Spidey at any time which is just his pride talking. Doctor Octopus is a unique variant as he has no superpowers but is such a Insufferable Genius with a megalomaniacal streak that he considers himself a god among men and this only got worse when he took over Peter's body and became the self-titled â€œSuperior Spider-Manâ€�.

Ironically Hulkâ€™s alter ego Bruce Banner is a Extreme Doormat in terms of pride, although Depending on the Writer he does flaunt his scientific genius similar to Reed and Tony. She-Hulk is much the same, sheâ€™s very green, very strong and very hot and doesnâ€™t care who knows it and spends a lot of her comic appearances being extremely smug and considering herself the strongest woman on Earth. Although she does have some Inferiority Superiority Complex as when super women show up who are potentially more powerful than her such as Power Princess Shulkie feels sheâ€™s worthless. Which considering how mousey and unassuming she is when sheâ€™s just Jennifer Walters makes sense. Many of Hulkâ€™s villains such as Abomination, Leader, U-Foes, and especially Red Hulk aka Thaddeus Ross are all extremely cocky even by Marvel villain standards with any time they are able get the upper hand on their nemesis Hulk leading to a lot of insufferable cockiness that evaporates when they are inevitably overpowered.

While, as a guild, they do outrank other guilds, as individuals they aren't the top dogs in the tournament, which makes it satisfying when they happen to face off against one of the stronger members. Earlier, Fairy Tail's rival guild Phantom Lord was believed to be on par with Fairy Tail. Because Master Jose, Gajeel, and other members thought their guild could destroy Fairy Tail, they started a guild war. After destroying their guild house, Phantom Lord got it back by Fairy Tail and eventually got disbanded. The dark guild Grimoire Heart is very proud of being the strongest dark guild and being the superior race. However, their status as the strongest dark guild is doubtful after the introduction of the third dark guild of the Balam Alliance, Tartaros, a guild full of demons from the Book of Zeref.

They consider everyone else as Cannon Fodder and that one of them is worth a thousand normal humans. If you go back to the Horus Heresy, you learn that the Primarchs could be even smugger, especially the traitor ones. Mid-to-late-corruption Fulgrim in particular degenerated into the smuggest asshole in the universe, no mean feat given the existence of the Eldar, long-lived aliens who view all humans as stupid apes and are not shy about saying so.

Smug Super / int_bdbcdadf	comment	In Neither a Bird nor a Plane, it's Deku!, K.E.L.E.X. loves to rub in his technological superiority over Earth tech, commenting on how primitive it is compared to Krypton's at every possible opportunity. Izuku is an inversion. Despite outstripping the vast majority of his peers in power, he's never boastful about his abilities, insists that anyone with his powers would be as heroic as he is, and is extremely hesitant to ever use more power than necessary out of fear of hurting others.

Smug Super / int_c4282b71	comment	My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Discord is well aware he's a near-omnipotent Reality Warper and doesn't view anyone — including the two resident Physical Goddesses — as much of a threat to him because of that knowledge. This is his undoing, as it renders him incapable of realizing the heroes are a serious threat to him until it's too late. It also bites him again when he teamed up with Tirek, who eventually grew strong enough from absorbing the magic of other ponies that he got strong enough to drain him. The Great and Powerful Trixie would sure like to be one, but she can't really deliver on the power department — until she acquires an Artifact of Doom. Even Twilight Sparkle herself, who's otherwise quite a nice person, accidentally dips into this time and time again. Sometimes it causes problems, like when she innocently tells Pinkie Pie that she knew Pinkie couldn't handle babysitting without her help (Pinkie does not take it well, unsurprisingly), while other times it serves to show she's Not So Above It All like when she scolds Rainbow Dash and Applejack for being too competitive or Discord for being a Trickster Mentor to her only to turn around and do both these things herself.

Smug Super / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: The Doctor. His dismissal and disdain for any individual or civilization he decides is beneath him is legendary and one of the only constant facets of his personality (though it is decreased when the writers want him to be more sympathetic), and he ensures that everyone from allies to villains to background characters is aware of how massively inferior they are compared to his big sexy brain. The Tenth Doctor was especially fond of this, frequently attempting to cut off arguments by glibly stating, "I'm clever."This tendency has been used against him on multiple occasions, especially in "Midnight", where the humans all turn against him because of his glib smugness; and in "Tooth and Claw", where Torchwood is created because Queen Victoria thought he and Rose were too smug and having a bit too much fun when everybody's life was in peril. In "The Waters of Mars", this tendency is taken up to scary levels during his Time Lord Victorious speech, where, without realizing it, he actually starts paraphrasing the Master. He has nothing on the rest of his race, though.And of course, that's when he's not busy telling every human he meets how magnificent they are and calling all his companions and everyone he meets who makes a passing effort to think before they act "brilliant". Which isn't even to say that the original point is wrong, just that the Doctor is... complex. Whether you see him as a blowhard who treats humans like children or a guy who makes no apologies for the fact that he legitimately IS the smartest guy in the room while truly appreciating what everyone else has to offer is up to you.

Unfortunately, Rove turns out to be a huge bully towards Memnock and Zenblock in his dÃ©but, bringing his seven recruiter of the year awards to the new virus warriors convention just to run his wins in Mem and Zen's faces and mocks them for their mediocre success and accidental recruitment of the Noobs. Mem and Zen do get to prove to Rovu that they are great recruiters when they win the recruiter of the year award instead of him and breaking Rovu's winning streak in the process. The Incredibly Amazing Man is worse than Rovu in terms of ego and personality and his status as this trope is blatantly shown through his name. The Incredibly Amazing Man is more competent than the Noobs in virus monster-fighting but he is an arrogant narcissist who only cares about fame and money and he frequently makes condescending comments towards the Noobs. To make matters worse, he is also very destructive, tearing up buildings and public places in virus fights and his overinflated ego blinds him from actually seeing the damage he has caused. His decision to create his "Fortress Of Awesomeness" in the middle of city traffic just proves how arrogant he is.

Smug Super / int_d0744832	comment	The Avengers: Iron Man much like his MCU counterpart tends to have a lot of this. Tony is pretty damn awesome and knows it, so often feels the need in modern comics to let the world know as well â€” as frequently as possible and no matter how aggravating it gets. Tony is more than confident heâ€™s just as smart as Reed and believes his Powered Armour technology can take on gods and like Reed often has it blow up in his face. At other times heâ€™s more got the Mask of Confidence as heâ€™s really a deeply troubled man still haunted by his father Howardâ€™s Might Makes Right ideals and emotional abuse into thinking he was too weak to solve the worldâ€™s problems and overcompensates as an adult with more power. Tony is often a good foil to Doctor Doom in this regard as theyâ€™re both arrogant geniuses but Tony at least can humble himself, while it takes literal godhood and a cosmic Villainous Breakdown for Victor to concede heâ€™s a lesser man morally speaking. Thor suffered from this during his youth and eventually it got so bad Odin his father had banish him to Earth and make him live as a crippled doctor to teach him humility (we see in flashbacks and by the viking jock attitude of younger Thor in Thor: God of Thunder that Odin was right to do so). Generally averted with present Thor who has a similar humble and benevolent attitude to Superman, though he does occasionally dip back into this to the extent he considers even the likes of Galactus and Thanos beneath him. Captain America believe it or not, used to be very much this in The Golden Age of Comic Books as Steve looked down his nose at the Mooks he beat up regularly as Super-Soldier calling them â€œratsâ€� and frequently let everyone know he was an all American badass. This attitude was dropped when he was re-introduced in the 60s with him being written as The Paragon being humble and virtuous, although itâ€™s not entirely uncommon for writers to nudge Cap back towards this e.g his fight with Gambit in Avengers vs. X-Men Steve comes off as an Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy who didnâ€™t take his fellow martial artist seriously, talking to Tony on the coms before Gambit gets his â€œundivided attentionâ€�. Ultimate Captain America however is unmistakably this, to very punchable levels see his â€œDo you think this A stands for France?â€� line. Black Panther can fall into this. Tâ€™Challa is good man at heart but his arrogance at his abilities and status in the comics is colossal and he canâ€™t help but look down his nose at Westerners and anyone who thinks they can be better hunter, scientist and king compared to him. Itâ€™s taken considerably effort from his family and allies such as Ramonda, Okoye and Storm to remind him of humility as well as Tâ€™Challa being contrasted with far worse egomaniacs like Killmonger, Namor, Doom and Kraven. Still Tâ€™Challa can be pretty bad when it comes to this. Captain Marvel has a strong streak of this. After years of being looked down upon by being a woman in a masculine profession of the Air Force (as well as prior sexism from her father) becoming a Flying Brick was utterly exhilarating for Carol and she often let her strength and badassery go her head leading to some Break the Haughty e.g after Rogue brutally defeated her and put her in a coma. This behaviour got the most of control when she became Captain Marvel and helped instigate Civil War II under the complete belief sheâ€™s be all and end all to Earthâ€™s heroes and itâ€™s only after the fallout to that Carol is forced to come to terms with the fact sheâ€™s got issues and trauma she needs to accept and not be ashamed of. Wonder Man is frequently this, heâ€™s one of the heavy hitters and Earth and is particularly smug about it (not helped by the fact he was an egomaniac actor before getting superpowers) just see one of his quote against Vision in one of their early scrapes â€œYou may be strong Vihz. But Iâ€™m in a class only Thor can touchâ€� though given Vision is able to beat him at plenty of other times, this boast is very empty. Black Widow plays with this, she generally knows sheâ€™s outclassed compared to the upper brass of Marvel heroes and can only engage in the bigger scope fights by being Crazy-Prepared or relying on her more superpowered allies to deal with stuff she physically canâ€™t. Against other professional super spies and super assassins however Natasha is pretty smug knowing as The Dreaded she is by far the best and has extra clout as an Avenger. Madame Hydra, Iron Maiden and Madame Masque all despise Natâ€™s guts for making them look like joke femme fatales spies in comparison.

In "When She Was Bad", when Willow tries to defend Giles on the revivification matter regarding the Master, Buffy snaps that she'd like to "have a little less from the civilians."

Holden Webster sums her attitude up as an Inferiority Superiority Complex. Then there's "Get It Done," where after Chloe's suicide, Buffy gives everyone a "The Reason You Suck" Speech that amounts to this, making it clear that they do what she says and she's done carrying them all; Anya even lampshades it, regarding it as Buffy basically saying "Everyone sucks but me." Faith personified this after her Faceâ€“Heel Turn in Season 3, believing she was better than normal humans because she was the Slayer and having Screw the Rules, I Have Supernatural Powers! as her personal philosophy.

Smug Super / int_ef7b3325	comment	Fantastic Four: Reed Richards Mr Fantastic himself although a Family Man and ideal hero at heart is still shockingly arrogant as "The World's Smartest Man" and honestly believes only he can right the problems of the world. Reed was definitely worse when it came to this earlier on as he actively looked down Ben and Johnny as inferior to him even though they're arguably more devastating in combat with their powers compared to his stretchiness. Even later on Reed hasnâ€™t fully shaken off his egotism as he still feels he can make decisions without his family the four, even though he needs them more than they need him. The Thing was this for much of his earlier history. He's one of the strongest heroes ever and happily let everyone know it, flaunting his immense strength whenever he could since he relishes 'Clobbering time". He even outright considered most superpowered characters lightweights compared to himself. Interestingly Ben dropped this behaviour gradually after the similar Hulk was introduced and the two experienced Divergent Character Evolution with Hulk adopting all of Thingâ€™s antisocial but pitiable barroom brawler traits while Thing became Lighter and Softer Boisterous Bruiser. Thing is also deconstructs this as behind his tough guy swagger he's got a more gentle and fragile soul, e.g he backed out of a marriage to his girlfriend at the time Debbie Green citing that unlike Spider-Man, Daredevil, Bruce Banner, and Namor whom he saw in the news he isn't "strong enough" to deal with death of the woman he loves. Human Torch is frequently a cockily smug superhero as well and before several traumatic incidents generally thought he was hottest (literally and figuratively) and slickest super stud around, even butting heads with Spidey frequently due to mutual teenage testosterone. After some Break the Haughty as an adult Johnny did come to realise he was ultimately a pompous and amorous jerk and in the more recent run actually humbled himself for while working a lower class job. Johnny has even admitted heâ€™s envious of Peter as despite the latter not having the luxury Johnny possesses, Peter is able to be respected by the best minds in the universe and be genuinely loved by multiple women for his heart â€” neither of which Johnny has ironically has had as much luck at. Doctor Doomâ€™s Fatal Flaw is definitely this with him being the trifecta of Insufferable Genius, Smug Super and Tin Tyrant. Heâ€™s actually quite successful and effective as a Big Bad having the highest win counts of Marvelâ€™s supervillains and his built up skill and power is legitimately impressiveâ€¦ yet itâ€™s all for naught as Victor cannot help but stroke his omniversal-sized ego which is also as fragile as china when it comes to Reed. He doesnâ€™t take defeats or anyone being better at him well at all especially if its â€œRICHARDS!!â€� doing it and he once literally walked away from a Celestial when it gave him the simple task of admitting Reed is better than him. Itâ€™s not just the FF either Doom looks down his metal nose at everyone, even individuals like Iron Man and Strange can match his technology and magic pound for pound. In Jonathan Hickmanâ€™s run it took Victor becoming an almighty Reality Warper god for him to finally concede Reed is better than him and he still wasnâ€™t happy about it.

Smug Super / int_f04b4111	comment	Metroid: Most of the Space Pirates are this. But, special mention goes to Ridley. The beginning of Super Metroid shows Ridley giving Samus a Curb-Stomp Battle before escaping with the baby Metroid shows he can best the bounty hunter. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption gave us an odd example in the form of Rundas. Rundas considers himself to be one of the unrivaled bounty hunters and has the balls to prove it. Gandrayda also qualifies, she has an obvious reason to see Samus as her rival and enjoys her profession as a bounty hunter nothing more than just a hobby. Metroid Dread gives us Raven Beak, who has a mural of himself in Ferenia celebrating the execution of a bunch of dissenters, is shown in the Chozo Memories as inspiring a fascistic propaganda outburst and generally peppers his impersonation of ADAM with self-aggrandizing statements. However, given he broke an E.M.M.I. single-handedly (whereas Samus requires the Omega Stream just to break off its face plate), wrangled back an X infestation of his own troops (if what Quiet Robe said is correct), and was only stopped from killing Samus twice over by her Metroid DNA acting up in the process, he has every right to brag.

Smug Super / int_f3e1f424	comment	Morgana on Merlin fits this like a glove. She considers herself the most powerful magic user in the world (and except for Merlin, she's right, but no one knows about him), and she won't hesitate to lord her magic over Muggles. Exaggerated in Series 5 via Deconstruction; she was imprisoned for two years in a hole away from the light, powerless to use her magic without risking harm to the dragon she was imprisoned with. Now that she's out she's grown obsessed with making sure she's the one on top, leading to her tendencies to demonstrate her power over others whenever she can.

Smug Super / int_f4abd380	comment	Hakumen from BlazBlue is the leader of the Six Heroes, who saved the world from the Black Beast. This seems to have gone to his head a bit (or it could be that he's monstrously powerful, and is fully aware of it). He uses a derisive tone of voice when speaking to most other characters, and many of his in-battle lines seem dedicated to mocking his opponent's inadequacy. Series Big Bad Yuuki Terumi, another of the Six Heroes, is a villainous example, who thinks he's the most amazing thing in the world and will happily crush his opponents' skull in if they don't like his trash-talking. Naturally, when he and Hakumen confront each other, it is a sight to behold. As his original self Susano'o, he takes it even further, looking down upon everyone else and acting with divine smugness as one would expect from a literal Jerkass God. Helps that as Susano'o, he has all of his power as Terumi and Hakumen. Azrael (The Mad Dog, King of Atrocity, Genocider, The Cannibal) is so powerful he can make Hakumen take him seriously without any mockery and acts like it, often just letting his opponents futilely wail on him while he just stands there smiling. Even better? All of his power is natural; no Applied Phlebotinum at all. Phantom/Nine is perhaps one of the most arrogant characters in the series once her limiters are removed, always speaking with a condescending and arrogant tone of voice, laughing off her opponent's attacks, and casually lying down when "defeated" without a care. She's also The Archmage in a world where True Magic is considered a jackpot in the Superpower Lottery, and she's considered among the most powerful beings in existence.

His only powers are disabling the control prompts that pop up before each microgame and screwing with the player with various dirty tricks to mess up the screen. He'll sound rather bored if you clear a game ("Eh, good enough.") and he'll taunt you if you lose a game with quips like "Aw, too bad!" and "Couldn't, huh?").

Smug Super / int_fa5e90fd	comment	City of Heroes has quite a few of these for the sake of accommodating its players but the stand-out example among the signature cast of Paragon City is the psychic super-heroine, Sister Psyche'. Many stories abound about how she makes people talk backward or cluck like chickens for thinking snide/lewd thoughts about her. Apparently it's how she deals with having to read everyone's minds 24/7.

Smug Super / int_fe83990a	comment	Saint Seiya is all over this trope like bishonen on albino. Every. Single. Enemy the Bronzies face will spend about half the fight lording it over them about how, though it's "admirable you made it this far", they're doomed to fail because they are the most powerful enemy they will ever face. The Silver Saints and later Spectres have a special narcissistic knack for it. Phoenix Ikki does this sometimes too, despite being a hero. By being the strongest Bronze Saint in history he does sometimes beat his opponents with ease.

Smug Super / int_ff9ab17f	comment	The epitome would have to be Q, from Star Trek. It helps that he is literally omnipotent and what he can do is limited only by his imagination, how malicious he's feeling at any given moment, and whether or not the rest of his similarly godlike species are inclined to trouble themselves to rein him in. He is quite fond of reminding people of just how powerful he really is, often right before he does something to mess with them. His son learned this habit from his dear eternal dad, which counted as Laser-Guided Karma.
