What makes Balki, from Perfect Strangers, a SuperHero is his profound understanding of the essence of humankind, even though, on the surface he appeared naive.
Balki stood for what was best in humankind.  He believed in truth, justice, and the whopper.  Okay, maybe not the whopper, but he believed in honesty, modesty, giving, and he was caring.
He was a standup character who must have made all sheepherders proud.  Not to mention that he won the heart of a knock-out gorgeous female, MaryAnn.  And that he was so very funny (along with his Cousin Larry).
 
Funny, yet wise sayings of Fresh Young Balki B
  1. "If life gives you lemons, I suggest that you make furniture polish"
  2. "You can pretend to be someone else, and get free soup bones, but sooner or later your gonna have to dance with the butcher"
  3. "There are non so blind as those who will not listen"
Balki gave up the fame and fortune of being  a rapper because he would not lip sync.  How many people would pass on the cash.  I probably wouldn't, and we know of several artist that didn't.
 
I am still working on creating a full SuperHero profile for Balki.
