Can anyone list all the Superman rip-offs? So far I got Hyperion, Captain Marvel(original), Gladiator, and Supreme. There's this other guy, but I forget his name, he wore a yellow sleeveless costume with a red cape, and had too many muscles. He was more of a parody than a rip-off, and was from a lesser known comic book company. Acclaim Comics I think. Maybe Chaos! Comics.

Anyway, list them here.

Maestro
Sentry

ScarletSpider
Prime. Although I think he was more a ripoff of Captain Marvel, as with being a kid and everything, but the powers were the same more or less. Apollo from Authority. The original Wonder Man, published by some old omics company. The laws were different at the time, and the courts ordered the company to cease and desist, and then pay reparations, that's how blatant of a ripoff he was.

Arachnoidfreak
YES. PRIME. From Malibu Comics! That's it! I used to love that guy.

Scarlet Spider, you rock ass.

Tron
Ummmm, that doesn't sound right.no expression

ScarletSpider
I was thinking the same thing...you're welcome Arachnoidfreak, but you can keep your...erm...compliment.

Prime is cool though, Marvel owns all the Malibu stuff. Wish they'd do something with it.

The Flash
Mr. Majestic.

Arachnoidfreak
They are. I read somewhere that a Prime movie is in the works.

Khellendros
Omni Man from Invincible.

Supreme, i think he is image or dark hosre, im not sure

MERCILOUS
Supreme is kind of a rip off of Superman and Marvel's Thor. Remember he later carries a hammer.

Does anyone remember the recent one that marvel made up. It was called Super Powers or something and it was basically a "What If" Superman landed in Russia instead of the states and was a soviet tool.

DarkCrawler
"Red Son"

But wasn't it DC?

NEO from Matrix! That made me laugh so much in the theatre my friend got pissed off! The way he flew with his hand in front of him and going super speed made me wish I could put an S on Neo's chest!

Arachnoidfreak
"Superman: Red Son" was DC. It was an Elseworlds Comic. and yes, I already mentioned Supreme, and he's from Image comics.

Captain Marvel was never a rip-off of Superman.How can he be a rip-off of Superman if he doesn't even have all of his powers?And besides,Billy Batson changes into Captain Marvel way differently than Clark Kent changes into Superman.Captain Marvel from DC COMICS is way different from Superman and they really aren't alike in any way.Superstrength,flight,and superspeed has been used on so many characters so if that's why you listed him as a rip-off of Superman,then you mine as well say ever superhero is a rip-off of Superman.

Dude,Martian Manhunter isn't any where near like Superman.Streaky and Comet and Krypto are supposed to be like Superman.Streaky and Comet maybe,but not Krypto.Krypto came from Krypton so he's supposed to have powers like Superman.General Zod is a villain so he definantely can' be a rip-off of Superman.Black Adam is a rip-off of Captain Marvel but I like them both.You're kind of off with your list because those characters are different from Superman.What next?I guess someone's going to say Spider-Man is a rip-off of Superman too,huh?
