> Hrm... You know, I don't know if Spaceman Spiff counts as a super-hero. Calvin's alter-ego superhero was already Stupendous Man, Spiff was more of a sci-fi hero.... Certainly an issue that deserves some thought.

Alex Ross (a ledgendary comic book artist and author) said there are 5 kinds of superheroes and used DC characters to illustrate
Sci-Fi Superman
Myhtology Wonder Woman
Magic Captain Marvel
Detective Batman
Humor Plastic Man


Since sci-fi is one of his catagories, and considering the stuff Spiff does I'd give him sci-fi/superhero status.
