I enjoyed "The Boys", love the trope of a world where superheroes are
the norm.

There was an ITV series called "No Heroics", about a world full of
superheroes. It was a Friends-like storyline with some b-list
superheroes, like ElectroFlash, a woman who can talk to machines (and
uses her powers to get money and cigarettes from ATMs and vending
machines), a man with a drinking problem and the ability to see 30
seconds into the future, and The Hotness, a guy who can make small
fires on his hands - he's seen using his powers to heat a microwave
entree at home in front of telly.

A similar movie came out years ago called "Mystery Men", it's pretty
entertaining if you like the trope.
