Stupendous man was foreshadowed earlier when Calvin got wrapped up in his cape while saying “This is a job for…”, then gave up after getting hopelessly tangled. This is the first official installment of Stupendous Man.

This is an early costume of Stupendous Man’s and I don’t think it appears at all in the strip other than in this cartoon… his mom made him a cape and cowl that he uses in the rest of Stupendous Man’s appearances.
