Weaknesses
Note
- The Incredibles comics may not be in the same continuity as the movies as they are based off the Rise of the Underminer game, directly referring to events from the game[25], which was the official sequel until The Incredibles 2 removed it from official continuity, but statements regarding abilities or physiology should be usable as there shouldn't be any reason they cannot be replicated in the movies.
