Superhero of the day

Today I will present one of the most ridiculous things to ever be included in the superhero genre.  I am not going to embellish much because the absurdity screams for itself

Mighty Man is notable for a superhero in that he himself is only a few inches tall, whereas his alter ego — millionaire Brandon Brewster — is approximately six feet tall. Brewster "changes" from his playboy persona into Mighty Man via the Mighty Machine, a beam-shooting pistol which simultaneously gives him his superpowers and miniaturizes him. Just after the transformation, he shouts in slow bursts, "Mighty, Mighty, Mighty Man!"

Both Mighty Man's and Brandon Brewster's characters are voiced by Peter Cullen, years before he won the role as the voice of Optimus Prime in The Transformers cartoon series --alongside his colleague Frank Welker, who was the voice of Optimus Prime's enemy, Megatron, and who in this cartoon series provided the voice of Yukk!, Mighty Man's faithful sidekick. Mighty Man's name, size and powers were clearly based on that of Mighty Mouse.

Yukk! has no alternate persona and freely associates with Mighty Man in both his superhero form and his normal form; seemingly an obvious tip off to anyone who wanted to uncover Mighty Man's secret identity.

Yukk! (formally stylized with an exclamation point) is a fictional crime fighter who debuted on American television, as a semi-regular feature of a cartoon series entitled The Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show, which itself aired from September 1979 to September 1980.

Yukk! is an anthropomorphic oversized dog who serves as Mighty Man's sidekick; in the show, he played the part of comic foil to the more serious Mighty Man, said comic relief appearing in the form of the miniature doghouse that he constantly wore over his head. The purpose of the doghouse was to protect the world from his face, which was supposed to be the ugliest thing the world had ever known (and which was never seen by the viewers).

In addition to being his headgear, Yukk!'s doghouse also served as storage for the Mighty Phone (which allowed the mayor to contact Mighty Man) and the Mighty Machine (a pistol that transforms Brandon Brewster into Mighty Man, and back again). Other items could also be found inside the doghouse.
