Weaknesses
This is a popular misconception that spawns from the NSA File's mentions of his personality, which says that he is prone to tyrannical/megalomaniacal impulses and believes supers to be "a superior race"[33] and that the NSA Recommends close monitoring on him[34], however, Gamma Jack is never actually mentioned to be a villain in any of the medium, he's still considered a "superhero", though he is definitely not an altruistic or morally good one.
This is a quote used by many however this is never once said in any official media of The Incredibles or any of the guidebooks. If anything, going by stats in the NSA Files, there is not a single stat[35] he has over Mr. Incredible[36].
There are many that try and say Gamma Jack is like the fake superhero Homelander from The Boys, however this is not remotely the case, Homelander is a truly evil being that has murdered children and assaulted whoever he pleased while abusing his power, Gamma Jack on the other hand has shown racist tendencies and megalomaniacal impulses, he has never truly delivered on them and has only killed villains[37]. While there could be some similarities to pick up between them, they are really not the same.
