He wages a one-man war against the three crime families fighting over their neighborhood just so Michelle and Zoe can have a better life. He wins too.

* Jonathan Kent on ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' was actually pretty legendary in this regard. One memorable scene was when Lionel tried to blackmail him again, or he'll expose Clark's secret to the world. He chose to beat seven shades of crap out of Lionel, nearly killing him, until he was struck with a heart attack, and died. He [[HeroicSacrifice sacrificed his life]] to protect his adopted son.
** Granted, the situation was not ''quite'' what he thought it was (Lionel was actually on the way to a HeelFaceTurn at this time, and ''himself'' took Clark's secret to the grave 2 Seasons later), but given Jonathan's history with the Luthor family, his overreaction is understandable (and Lionel even admitted his fault in Jonathan's death).

And then he returned home with the baby tucked under his good arm, had his people put a hook on his stump, came back to action and [[HandicappedBadass helped the Justice League kick the culprit's ass]]. Conclusion? Do NOT mess with Aquaman's kid. You'll be '''VERY''', '''''VERY SORRY'''''.
** To drive that point even further, the villain was ''[[CainAndAbel his own brother]]'', [[EvilUncle Orm]]. And Aquaman didn't give a single thought about kicking his ass and [[spoiler:letting him die]].
