Description and Preview[]
RiffTrax - Supersonic Man - Trailer
The alien Kronos is sent to the Earth and given the identity of Supersonic Man. His mission is to protect the planet from Dr. Gulik's evil plans to rule the world, which involve dangerous methods that could "break the Galaxy's equilibrium".
Supersonic Man possesses mighty powers such as flying, extraordinary strength, throwing fire and the ability to transform handguns into bananas. He is also given a human identity: Paul, a reporter who can change back into a superhero by activating a wristwatch device and saying: "May the Great Force of the Galaxy be with me."

Quotes[]
- Mike:"Pumaman snorts with contempt!" Bill: "You call that awkward flying with a terrible soundtrack? Let me show ya a little something, pal!"
Pumaman was another low-budget Euro-superhero film mocked by Mike, Bill and Kevin in their days on Mystery Science Theater 3000.
- "He also has the powers of Xbox Kinect!"
The Kinect was a video game accessory meant to have players interact with games by making physical motions. Due to unresponsiveness, it required players to make extremely exaggerated movements, like Supersonic Man does waving his arms around wildly.
