History BadassFamily / TheDCU

* The West-Allens from ''Series/{{The Flash|2014}}''. Father, Joe, is a police detective, Barry is, of course, The Flash, Iris, is an investigative reporter, and Wally is Kid Flash.

* ''ComicBook/{{The Outsiders|DCComics}}'': A villainous (and obscure) example can be found in the Nuclear Family, from ''ComicBook/BatmanAndTheOutsiders''. They're a group of [[RidiculouslyHumanRobot Ridiculously Human Robots]] who look and act like a stereotypical '50's sitcom family. Don't let their outwardly affable behavior fool you, though-- they're all plenty dangerous, with powers themed after the five stages of a nuclear explosion. Dad can fire massive amounts of radiation, Mom can generate [=EMPs=], Biff can launch thermal pulses, Sis can let out blast waves, and Brat and Dog can transform themselves into fallout.

* ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' has the Marvel Family -also known as the Shazam Family-: Billy Batson -Captain Marvel-, his sister Mary -Mary Marvel-, his best friend/adoptive brother Fred -Captain Marvel Jr.-, and in the ''Post-Flashpoint'' universe, his adoptive siblings Darla, Eugene and Pedro. ''All of them'' are {{Flying Brick}}s.
* The ''Franchise/{{Batman}}'' comics have the Bat-Family:
** Start with patriarch Bruce Wayne aka Batman, ''the'' BadassNormal. He's adopted four sons and a daughter: ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} aka Dick Grayson, the original Robin, and the undisputed leader of a generation of superheroes; bitter middle son Red Hood aka Jason Todd (formerly the second Robin), with Batman's badassery and none of his mercy; ComicBook/RedRobin aka Tim Drake (the third Robin), following in his adopted father's footsteps so closely that it's difficult to separate the treads; the most recent son, Duke Thomas from ComicBook/WeAreRobin who has light based powers and protects Gotham during the daylight; Cassandra Cain, Batman's sole adopted daughter, Batgirl and the world's single best martial artist, who can ''wipe the floor'' with all five of them. Probably at once.

* ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'':
** The Superman Family has the Man of Steel himself, his cousin ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}, his alternate reality cousin ComicBook/PowerGirl, his half-clone [[ComicBook/{{Superboy}} Kon-El]], his adoptive son Chris Kent (who was Nightwing for a while), his biological son [[Characters/SupermanJonathanSamuelKent Jonathan Samuel Kent]], his friggin' DOG, [[ComicBook/KryptoTheSuperdog Krypto]] and his cousin's CAT Streaky. They [[ComicBook/TheThirdKryptonian only team-up every so often]], but when they do... And if you want to count best friends and family of same, well... look above. And then ''run''.
** There is also the multitude of Supergirls: Matrix who Clark considered a sister; Linda Danvers, the Earth born angel who married Pre Crisis Superman and had a child, Ariella, with him; Cir-El who was treated like a daughter by Clark. There's the second Power Girl, Tanya Spears. Family friend, Lana Lang who became Superwoman, and of course Jimmy Olsen, Van-Ze, Ak-Var, and Thara Ak-Var who were all parts of the Nightwing and Flamebird legacy.
** In the ''ComicBook/SupermanAndBatmanGenerations'' series (as the name implies), Superman, Batman, and several other heroes have children with some intermarrying between the lines. Batman actually acquires immortality and superpowers and marries Superman's great granddaughter (who is centuries old by this point but, like him, ages very slowly after adulthood.)
* Along the same line is the ''other'' BadassNormal family - [[ComicBook/GreenArrow Clan Arrow]]. Though, it might be better ''not'' to ask how many kids Ollie has actually sired.
* Even though [[ComicBook/BlueBeetle Jaime Reyes]] is the only one with powers, his entire family have done badass things. His mother talked down [[Franchise/GreenLantern Guy Gardner]], and his father beats Mooks with his cane. According to {{Fanon}}, his little sister is going to be a Franchise/GreenLantern one day.
* Franchise/TheFlash: The West/Allen family has Barry Allen, Wally West, Bart Allen, and a whole slew of adopted speedsters like Johnny Quick, Max Mercury, and the original Flash Jay Garrick. Barry's been dead for twenty years, but he doesn't let that keep him down. At least until Final Crisis, wherein Barry returned to life.

* The ComicBook/{{Ha|wkman}}ll family. Includes two ComicBook/{{Hawk|man}}persons, one [[Comicbook/DoctorFate Helm of Nabu-bearer]], and ''[[ComicBook/TheSandman1989 the incumbent anthropomorphic personification of dreams]]''.
* ComicBook/{{Booster Gold}}'s family as him, his sister, his many greats grandfather, and [[spoiler: his son, Rip Hunter]] are all superheroes [[spoiler: and time masters]].
* Brainiac's descendants have all proved to be quite dangerous in their own right. Vril (II) runs a successful police-for-hire company and has managed to defeat Starro two times without much aid, Lyrl usurped said company and almost took over the galaxy as a toddler, and Querl is a superhero and an important member of the ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes.
* ''Comicbook/StarsAndSTRIPE'' is about the Courtney Whitmore taking on a superhero identity as the new Star-Spangled Kid in order to annoy her new stepfather [[ComicBook/SevenSoldiersOfVictory Pat Dugan]] and him returning to superheroics in a suit of powered armor called S.T.R.I.P.E. to protect her, becoming the adult sidekick to a kid hero for the ''second'' time.
