Yes, I know all super-heroes are fictional, bear with me here.
What are the favorite super-heroes of fictional characters? Not super-heroes that you and I read, but ones that were specifically created for the stories in question.
Here’s the ones that I can think of off the top of my head, but there have to be more:
The Fearless Ferret from Kim Possible
Radioactive Man fromThe Simpsons

Super Moose from Jackie Chan Adventures.

The guy the kids on Fat Albert used to watch. The Brown Hornet?

Warrior Angel from “Smallville”
Ultralord from “Jimmy Neutron”
The Crimson Chin from “The Fairly Oddparents”
Catman (another Adam West character) from “The Fairly Oddparents”
Should Gizmoduck from “Ducktales” count? How about Guy Gardner’s hero General Glory? The Justa Lotta Animals?

The Gray Ghost, from Batman: The Animated Series. Another member of the Adam West squad, IIRC.

Didn’t General Glory start out as Guy Gardner’s favorite superhero?

Remember Darkwing Duck? As a young duckling, Drake Mallard’s favorite comic boosuper hero was Super Pig. And his favorite video game was Whiffle-Boy.

“Gizmoduck” shouldn’t count, because, within the4 context of hte Ducktales continuity, he was a real character, not a ficitonal one.
Wow, that was complicated.

“Science Dog” in the Incredible universe, but I think he might be becoming a real character soon

Not Incredible, George, Invincible

“The Penalizer” from Animal Man… sort of.
July 10th, 2005 at 10:38 am
My favorite is the Super-Duper, from Robert McCloskey’s “Homer Price” stories.

ValHallan, Major Glory and the Unfraggable Krunk from Dexter’s lab. They’ve got their own segment on the show but it’s understood that it’s from a sitcom that airs in Dexter’s world.

Vaklan-Major Glory showed up in the episode where Dexter created his own Major Glory action figure. So he’s not that fictional.

The crimson chin was voiced by Jay Leno. In one episode the Chin crashed Leno’s show.
The Infraggable Crunk is my favorite name for a superhero Ever.

Powdered Toast Man, from Ren & Stimpy. JOY
July 17th, 2005 at 8:06 am
and, my favorite, from Chip ‘n Dale’s Rescue Rangers . . . . The Red Badger of Courage!

Here’s a good list from DC Comics metafiction: http://blaklion.best.vwh.net/timeline411.html

How about Quail Man from the Nickelodeon cartoon “Doug”?

‘Slugman and Leech Boy’ in Foxtrot (a comic strip in its own right). Admittedly, they are also written by one of the comic strip’s main characters.
