Bibleman, as he's known to his friends, is a live-action show originally starring Willie Aames of Charles in Charge and Dungeons & Dragons (1983) as a superhero who teaches our kids about the Good Book without sacrificing the excitement of pulse-pounding lightsabre battles. In its original incarnation, the series lasted from 1996 to 2004.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Aames played Miles Peterson, "who had everything: money, power, fame, until he lost it!" Throwing himself to the ground during a thunderstorm, he found a Holy Bible lying in the mud and was inspired to become Bibleman, an approachable superhero garbed in a suit of armor based on the one from the book of Ephesians (though the look of the suit seems to have been more inspired by Batman Forever). Over several years he pitted his faith against costumed losers who had nothing better to do than pick on middle school kids... uh... we mean the legions of Hell, and surrounded himself with a group of sidekicks.In 2004 Willie left the show to spend more time with his family (though there are a few who think someone higher on the food chain decided he had too much control over the show) and was replaced by Robert Schlipp playing Josh Carpenter, a Younger and Hipper Bibleman for a new generation in the reinvented Power Source series. While less unabashedly silly than Willie's time on the show, its attempts to make Bibleman appear "cool" to the kids at home have become more transparent, like the episodes where he learns to drive a race car or fly a jet.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Bibleman / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: That all of Bibleman's enemies were one guy named Luxor Spawndroth was only revealed on the show's website, seemingly for fans of lore who wanted an explanation. In the show it's only really addressed as one of the many fourth wall jokes, where they're making fun of how their budget's so low they can only afford one guy to play the villains. | |

Armor Is Useless | |
| Bibleman / int_638b65bc | comment |
Armor Is Useless: Despite his armor being based on principles for Christian life (particularly Ephesians 6:13-17), when his enemies actually hit Bibleman with their attacks or sin-inducing weaponry it's about as protective as wet tissue paper. When Josh takes race car training he's wearing his Bibleman suit but with an actual crash helmet instead of that... thing he usually has on.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
