Mr. Incredible
for Mr. Incredible in The Incredibles: Super Confusion
Suggested by feliciaaubinfrancis
In a world where superheroes are more famous for selfies than for saving the day, the Incredible family finds themselves in a mid-superpower crisis. Mr. Incredible is now better known for his shaving cream commercials than his heroic feats. Elastigirl is stuck in super-mom association meetings and seeks an identity beyond her stretchy power. Dash, faster than the internet, is obsessed with social media and gets caught up in a real-time storytelling dilemma. Violet, the telekinetic teenager, is tired of using her powers only to retrieve her hairbrush. And Jack-Jack, the baby with multiple powers, is a true menace, creating chaos wherever he goes. But when an amateur villain armed with an ice cream-freezing device threatens to paralyze the city, the Incredible family is forced to come together once more. They'll have to overcome their own issues and adapt to a world where being 'super' isn't always that super. 'The Incredibles: Super Confusion' is an ironic comedy about a dysfunctional family of superheroes trying to save the day, even if the day has already been saved... on the internet."
