The Bug from Men in Black movie. [Agent K Describing the Bug to J] Imagine a giant cockroach, with unlimited strength, a massive inferiority complex, and a real short temper, is tear-assing around Manhattan island in a brand new Edgar suit. That sound like fun? Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D (Monsters vs Aliens) YOU CAN'T CRUSH A COCKROACH! [laughs maniacally]

More Powers: Poison Resistance. Ability to eat there own feces (babies eat the adult crap). Heightened Senses. Sonic Scream (Some Cockroaches Hiss). Some can go without air for 45 minutes. In one experiment, cockroaches were able to recover from being submerged underwater for half an hour. A few species are known to be parthenogenetic, reproducing without the need for males.
