In a World… where being a superhero is a legitimate career choice... well, you gotta learn the trade somewhere, and the best place for learning how to be a superhero is the Super Academy!Super Academy started as a short film written and directed by Ben Lifson, then became a full webseries on YouTube after a Kickstarter campaign. It's about the young superhero Power Kid as he faces down all the challenges of being a freshman at college: no friends, weird schedules, supervillain dad trying to kill you... Oh yeah, forgot to mention that part, he's secretly the son of Deathside the Conqueror, a globally feared supervillain. That could make things weird.The complete webseries and additional videos can be viewed here. | |

Creator Cameo | |
| Super Academy (Web Video) / int_127fc252 | comment |
Creator Cameo: Ben Lifson appears as "Blifson the Clown" (as in "B. Lifson"), whose sole role is to be the victim of Dark Cop's Establishing Character Moment. Lifson is the voice of the guy who freaks out when Power Kid starts pulling the car. | |

Evil Sounds Deep | |
| Super Academy (Web Video) / int_16364a29 | comment |
Evil Sounds Deep: Deathside osscilates between this and a cruelly mocking but higher-pitched tone depending on his mood. When he gets deep, though, it's DEEP. | |

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown | |
| Super Academy (Web Video) / int_25524784 | comment |
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Deathside's "fight" with Dark Cop is basically a minute of him wailing on the poor lad. | |

Bland-Name Product | |
| Super Academy (Web Video) / int_2b5ea43c | comment |
Bland-Name Product: Crimson Toro is a pretty blatant one for the real-life energy drink Red Bull; "toro" is Spanish for "bull". During Dark Cop's "detention", the delinquents and Corona are made to pilot virtual mecha in simulator pods. Said pods are actually the classic 90's Battletech arcade machines, as is the actual simulator they participate in. | |

| Super Academy (Web Video) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Mild example in Dark Cop's outfit. Looks badass but is exhausting to attempt even moderately exerting physical activity in and doesn't offer much protection from Super Strong villains with a bone to pick. | |

Hollywood Hacking | |
| Super Academy (Web Video) / int_2be271c7 | comment |
Hollywood Hacking: When Chaotrix hacks the Super Academy's student database, all she does is let a progress bar fill up which proclaims, "HACKING IN PROGRESS". This possibly means she's a Script Kiddie, which does NOT speak well for the Academy's cyber security. | |

Daddy's Little Villain: Chaotrix's whole motivation seemss to be to obey her villainous father's orders. Power Kid managed to escape becoming this, which led to his banishment and thus, the plot of the film. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: A Badass Normal hero takes on a super strong, inhumanly tough villain in a one-on-one fistfight, guess who wins? The hero is essentially helpless to do much except try to stay conscious as he gets his face pummeled into the ground. | |
