Even still, misconceptions still abound. For example, there was a recent article "Heroine Chic - Superheroes, The New Black" in the NY Post where five superheroes were reimagined into actual fashion "looks". The chosen were Captain America, the Powerpuff Girls, She-Ra, Danger Mouse and the Hamburglar. Captain America is an interesting but passable choice. I could live with the Powerpuff Girls and even She-Ra and Danger Mouse --- but THE F--KING HAMBURGLAR!!! WTF!!! He's a fracking advertising mascot, not a comic book character.

Did you read the accompanying story? Here is the text quoted for your reference:
"Inspired by the Met's intellectualization of superhero iconography, we reinterpreted our favorite supes - the Powerpuff Girls, Captain America, Dangermouse and She-Ra - and one villain, the Hamburglar, in this season's frocks."
At no point did I assert that the Hamburglar is (1) a superhero or (2) a comic book character.
I don't know what misconceptions you're talking about.
