Sister Trope to Leotard of Power, Underwear of Power is when a superhero or a related type of character wears a speedo or something similar as part of their outfit. Speedos or briefs are usually used for this today. Initially used for nearly every hero (who didn't wear a full body suit) back when they looked like short pants or trunks instead of a speedo, this eventually became more associated with female characters, occasionally even going into bikinis, actual underwear, and thongs, although less often (and usually on women). For most super heroes this was initially a reference to the Strongman uniform (i.e. a bathing suit) of the day. Then it became iconic of super heroes, mostly due to Superman, which the rest of the heroes then drew upon. A secondary, initially unintended reason why so many characters had this, is because of the low quality of printing used for comics at the time. In a fight scene, making a character's hips distinct from the rest of their torso and their legs frequently made the action "read" more clearly in a low-quality image (you could clearly see if a character was twisting around, for example). Wearing them over tights was a staple of The Golden Age of Comic Books, but today only really exists in parody (or for characters from that time that are still around). For comedy, drama, Fanservice, or simply for their enemy to humiliate them, expect those who wear Underwear of Power to suffer a Groin Attack at least once. Especially for a Superhero, it's not uncommon because surprisingly, some of them are weak in that part while some others are not. You can also expect those who wear them to be given a Wedgie in a comedy or parody. However, just like Leotard of Power, with the shift from trunks into anatomically revealing "underwear", this has become a Fanservice Trope and is also pretty much dead—dropped in favor of bodysuits, or regular clothes. See Most Common Superpower and Show Some Leg for some related tropes. If the hero looks monstrous, expect the Underwear Of Power to be the only thing the hero wears. Compare Superheroes Wear Tights, Chainmail Bikini. |

Dragon Quest: The Magic Bikini in Dragon Quest III for female characters of any vocation. In the remake versions of the game, there's also the Blessed Bikini. Both pieces of equipment actually change the appearance of the wearer. Recurring character Kandar/Robbin' 'Ood and his various palette swaps go around in little more than a hooded cape, gloves, boots, and a pair of briefs. The bestiary description for the Hood monster in Dragon Quest XI even wonders how they go around without getting arrested for public indecency. The Jumping Jackals and their souped-up counterparts the Jackal Rippers and Tiger Jackals all run around in nothing but boots, briefs, and clawed gauntlets. Considering they're apparently supposed to be martial artists and bodybuilders, perhaps they think armor is unworthy of them. The Fire Spirit from Dragon Quest VII goes around in a pair of trunks and very sparse armor, giving him the appearance of a fire-themed superhero. And in Dragon Quest IX, now that legs are an equipment slot, there's a handful of underwear equipment choices for either gender. |

Mega Man (he's blue and cyan!), Proto Man (with added Scarf of Asskicking) and several Robot Masters have this look. Theirs even change color, based on the weapon in use. Mega Man's successor, X, follows suit with the addition of a chest armor piece, and naturally this also expands to Zero, Axl and substantial amount of Reploids. Rare example of females who gets a full-body suit for the Speedo to go over are Mega Man Battle Network incarnation of Roll and Belladonnas from Mega Man X: Command Mission. |

One of the visible changes to the New 52 reboot is that DC has pretty much abolished this for the bulk of their characters; including Superman and Batman. Something noted by critics of the redesign is that for the former especially, removing the trunks threw off the color balance that emphasized his strongman physique — if you read any books from the era where Supes appears and he looks oddly slimmer than usual, it's probably because of the lack of this trope. | |

Granted, for most of his appearances in and out of comics prior to the 2000s and even as recent as The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Captain America is depicted with trunks, they're usually the same blue as the rest of his pants, the chainmail on his shirt, and his mask. Not so much in X-Men: The Animated Series, where he was depicted with Superman-esque red trunks, complete with an all-yellow beltnote as opposed to, depending on the era, a black belt with a silver buckle or a utility belt. | |

In the The Powerpuff Girls (1998) episode "Members Only", after the girls are rejected by the Association of World Super Men, they leave begrudgingly, but not before Buttercup says to Major Glory, "You got your underpants on the outside!" (to which he embarrassingly covers up) The really strange thing is back on Dexter's Laboratory, Major Glory doesn't even wear those yet he does in "Members Only", this was never explained. |

This the most common type of outfit in Professional Wrestling, showing up pretty much on everyone, unless they're one of the few who wears normal clothes instead. Interestingly, this is, in an inversion of the usual way this is used, generally more often used by male wrestlers. This is because pro-wrestling is a remnant of circus style strongmen shows and some vaudeville acts that used similar clothing. | |

Dick (as Nightwing) actually gives Tim (Robin III) a hard time for wearing a costume that looks like it includes underwear over pants. Tim easily ignores the jab, probably because he knows that Dick has much more unfortunate costumes in his history. "Still wearing your underwear on the outside.

Invoked in Amazing Fantasy. While training to get into U.A. with his new spider powers, Izuku decides to visit a costume shop and buys a Spider-Man costume to psych himself up. He knows that characters from the The Golden Age of Comic Books would wear "underpants" over their spandex in case they had an "accident". He decides in advance to wear a pair of exercise shorts over his outfit just in case. It becomes especially important after he finds that his new muscles make the costume uncomfortably tight, particularly around his butt and crotch. | |

Well, underwear and body armour. Seems to be standard issue in Freeza's army. Since all these characters wound up dead, an old fandom joke said that fighting in briefs was what got them killed. | |

Zangief, and, technically, Sakura, who usually wears a very short skirt to (poorly) cover it (in SFIV, she gets a very long gi top, a la Ryu, to barely cover it instead). And don't forget Gill and his brother, Urien, who take after Grecian gods in their desire to fight with the barest of coverings. In Street Fighter V Urien normally fights completely clothed (unless you use a special code before the fight, where he burns off his clothes to fight in his signature thong) but Gill continues to fight with just the white thong (in his default outfit). Many of masked luchador El Fuerte's alternate costumes can give him this look. One of them is a traditional Aztec-themed costume complete with feathers and a headdress. Another is an old-fashioned wrestling outfit with a tank top and a championship belt, while one is a more modern wrestling getup with white trunks worn over black tights. |
