  • Literal superhero: Referring to comic book characters, fictional superheroes from movies, TV shows, or books (e.g., Superman, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man).
  • Figurative superhero: Describing someone who displays exceptional bravery, strength, or selflessness, especially in challenging situations. This could be a first responder, a healthcare worker, a good Samaritan, or even someone who helps out in a smaller, everyday way.
  • Personal strength/resilience: Expressing one's own feeling of empowerment, overcoming obstacles, or tackling a difficult task. It can be used to signify inner strength and determination.

  • Playfulness/Exaggeration: Used humorously to exaggerate one's own abilities or actions, often ironically.
