Major Glory is a patriotic superhero in The Powerpuff Girls. He is the founder and chairman of the Association of World Super Men.
Major Glory appears in the Powerpuff Girls episode Members Only, where he is shown as the leader of the "Association of World Super Men," or A.W.S.M. for short. He refused to let the girls join in A.W.S.M. despite Blossom beating him in the Test of Heroism in the Field.
Major Glory's chauvinistic attitude was his downfall when a supervillain named Mascumax took advantage of him and the other male superheroes where he defeated them until he was repelled by the Powerpuff Girls. Afterward, Major Glory asked the Powerpuff Girls if he and his fellow superheroes can join their team and they obliged him, with the Association of World Super Men becoming the Society of Associated Puff-keteers.
Trivia[]
- Major Glory is a parody of Marvel Comics' Captain America and DC's Superman, having Superman's powers with the patriotic persona of Captain America.
- The Major Glory featured in The Powerpuff Girls is a a different version from the one featured on Dexter's Laboratory, due to his team affiliations and chauvinistic attitude; In Dexter's Laboratory, Major Glory was the leader of the Justice Friends, not the Association of World Super Men. The Justice Friends featured at least one female member, Miss Spell, and allowed the membership of the mentally deficient Infraggable Krunk. Due to this, traits featured by the original version of Major Glory, such as his upbringing and fear of dentists, are not considered pertinent to this version of the character.
- Major Glory's costume in the show is slightly different from his costume from Dexter's Laboratory. In Dexter's Laboratory, he wears a red belt with his pectorals covered by a blue field with 5 white stars, while his abdominals are covered in white. In The Powerpuff Girls, he wears red shorts with a white belt and gold buckle, and the blue field now covers his abdominals as well. The 5-star field on his chest has been reduced to one star. The hem of his gloves also features small triangular notches not present in his original design.
