Superhero is a live album by comedian Stephen Lynch that has a variety of humorous songs on it. "Priest", "Mother's Day", and "Lullaby (The Divorce Song)" were originally recorded on his first CD A Little Bit Special. It was recorded live at four different comedy clubs in New York and New Jersey. Along with A Little Bit Special and The Craig Machine, the albums have sold over 250,000 copies.

His second official album, Superhero, released in 2002, with What Are Records?, was also a live album, and generally received better reviews than the first, partly because of strong audience response. The title track, "Superhero", was 8 minutes and 59 seconds long, and largely consisted of Lynch receiving the audience's suggestions for names for superheroes.
