National Supers Agency

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The National Supers Agency (sometimes called the NSA) is a fictional government division dealing with the employment of superheroes in the film The Incredibles.

The NSA was responsible for placing the superheros in hiding when the public began suing for damages done by superheroes when fighting crime. "The supers would be granted amnesty from responsibility for past actions, in the promise to never again resume hero-work." This act (known as the Superhero Relocation Program) is seen in effect in three cities in California:

  • Municiberg
  • Westburg
  • Metroville

According to the DVD extra, there were supers teams, banded together by some of the world's greatest superheroes:

  • The Thrilling Three, consisted of Gazerbeam, Apogee, Phylange and formerly Dynaguy, who was the leader. Their base was the Thrilling Three Tower.
  • Beta Force, consisted of Universal Man and Blazestone. Their base was unknown.
  • Phantasmics, consisted of Everseer, Plasmabolt, Macroburst and Physage.

The Act lasted for 15 years until the foiling of Operation Kronos by both Frozone and the Incredible Family saw the public indebted to superheroes, and the ban on superheroes was soon lifted.

On the 2-Disc DVD of The Incredibles, there are several superheroes registered with the NSA (although some were only listed in the film and not on the actual register).
