Superior Duck is the four hundred and eighty-sixth Looney Tunes theatrical short. It was distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures (under its Warner Bros. Family Entertainment label) on August 23, 1996. It was written, produced, and directed by Chuck Jones.

Daffy takes on the superhero ego of Superior Duck, but faces a lot of trouble when dealing with his narrator and the guest characters he meets along the way.
