Powers and Abilities
Mighty Man possesses many of the "standard," stereotypical powers of a Superman-type superhero: he can move at high rates of speed, fly, (although he is just as often seen transporting himself and his sidekick around in a tricycle), is highly resistant to physical damage, and has super-strength - in Mighty Man's case, roughly as much strength as is seen in super-powered beings many times his size.
Despite his formidable array of powers, it often fell to his sidekick, an unbelievably ugly anthropomorhic hound named Yukk! (he's so ugly that things get wrecked and the area shakes violently as if in an earthquake--hence the doghouse on his head to hide his face), to free him from the death-traps which he often ended up in and/or save the day.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“A man is the prisoner of his power. A topical memory makes him an almanac; a talent for debate, disputant; skill to get money makes him a miser, that is, a beggar. Culture reduces these inflammations by invoking the aid of other powers against the dominant talent, and by appealing to the rank of powers. It watches success.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths—your abilities and your failings.”
—Gérard Depardieu (b. 1948)
