| “ | Hello, kids. This is Thunderhead. I wasn't always a Superhero, but now I am. Um... and I didn't graduate... I thought I was trying to tell them to graduate, wasn't I? Hello, kids. This is Thunderhead. Please stay in school... otherwise, you'll wind up... like me...that's not right! I don't know where I'm going with this. You told me there was going to be a script or something. Well, I don't read….but you were gonna tell me what to say through the headphones, and you're not telling me anything except "go again". Hello, kids. This is Thunderhead. I didn't like school much, but maybe you will. Cuz you probably won't have the same teachers I had...that's not so good. Just aim high! And Thunderhead believes in you! Uh... thank you. | „ |

Thunderhead is a minor flashback protagonist in The Incredibles.
His Good Ranking[]
His Heroic Deeds[]
- As a Super, he gladly goes out of his way to protect good citizens from evil threats.
- Despite being a high school dropout, he felt bad for it, so he took part in "Stay in School" advertisements to encourage children to remain in school.
- He befriended Mr. Incredible and went to his wedding, clapping for him and his bride, Elastigirl.
- He adopted five children with his roommate Scott.
- When a bad guy threatened to use a huge missile to pulverize an entire city with sadistic glee, Thunderhead knocked him unconscious. He proceeded to redirect the missile so it would fire harmlessly into the sea, saving a city from being burned.
- Unlike Mr. Incredible, Thunderhead isn't part of a family of Supers and only has himself.
Why He Doesn't Stand Out?[]
- Although he passes the baseline for saving many innocent people from being burned alive, he relies on Fridge Brilliance to pass the admirable standard, as Mr. Incredible has stopped at least two other genocidal maniacs whose stakes are more fleshed out by comparison. Edna Mode casually describes his Goodness Zone as "another day saved," indicating him stopping the bad guy with the missile (and the Incredibles stopping Screenslaver) may create issue with the system standard.
- He is slightly lacking in characterization, as he has less than thirty seconds of screen time and does not have a single line of dialogue, and all of his backstory is only mentioned in a file most audiences don't even know of.
