[The Incredibles] Why is Mr. Incredible such a popular hero and treated as “The Shit”? His only power is Super strength and there are many heroes that were far more powerful than him. He isn’t even invulnerable.

Holy HELL! This blew up, thanks for the upvotes.

He was very good at his job, and he didn't get killed.

Take note of the sheer number of heroes in Edna's "cape-kill" montage; they were all very clearly trying to fill the "Superman Niche" in terms of how they presented themselves. Meta Man in particular went so far as to try and form the setting's version of the Justice League with himself at the head. Despite their incredible power and great branding, every single one of them got overconfident and died stupid, stupid deaths.

Mr. Incredible is tough and strong enough to be versatile, but the fact he's not invulnerable means he isn't fatally arrogant. From the scene where he stops the robbers while also saving the cat we know that he's good at  thinking on his feet, multi-tasking and thinking strategically; he went up against the Omnidroid on it's thirtieth or fortieth iteration, and he was still able to identify it's weaknesses and take it out in about ten minutes flat.  His skill at heroics, his raw dedication to helping people, his decent charisma, and the simple fact he didn't die meant he was destined to be a very popular hero.

In a world where almost every hero was systematically killed, He's one of the few OGs still remaining. That says something.
