Revision as of 08:26, 25 April 2020

“There's no need to fear! Underdog is here!”

―Underdog

Underdog, also known as Shoeshine, is a canine superhero and the titular protagonist of the live-action film of the same name. He was previously a normal dog until he was exposed to a variety of DNA of different animals, which modifies the beagle's DNA and gives him supernatural powers and abilities.

Powers and Abilities

Underdog possesses super-canine strength, speed, durability, agility, aging, healing, regeneration, senses, invincibility, invulnerability, endurance, longevity, intelligence, and flight. He is able to speak like a regular human. He is also able to emit a bark that is so strong it can shatter glass.

Trivia

The scene where Underdog and Sweet Polly eat spaghetti together is a parody of the similar iconic scene from Disney's Lady and the Tramp.
Underdog is a canine spoof of the famous comic book superhero Superman. Also, Shoeshine is based on Superman's secret identity, Clark Kent.
In the original animated series, Underdog was an anthropomorphic character named Shoeshine because he literally shined shoes for a living, and he would always take his super energy pill whenever he was weakened or in a jam. He was also voiced by Wally Cox.
