Mighty Agrippa, Roman God of the Aqueduct

The Mighty Agrippa is one of the most powerful superheroes in The Tick comics.
Biography
Despite being likely the most powerful superhero in the Tick universe, he is a low-ranking deity.  He was the last god to join the Roman pantheon. However when he actually showed up at Olympus, he discovered the gates were locked and the other gods had abandoned him. However, Agrippa hopes they will return one day. He became superhero for unknown reasons. His alter ego is Dexter Fisk, who is a mild-mannered plumber and "reformed protestant". However, Dexter can turn into Agrippa by tapping his grout trowel. Agrippa has become a field agent for the Tri-State Superhero Congress by hunting down superhero fugitives.
Powers
He has the standard powers of super strength, invulnerability and flight. However, since he is the god of aqueducts, he also has the ability to teleport water instantly. There appears to be no limit to this ability since he accidentally created a sea next to the City. Said sea became a tourist attraction.
