Mermaid Man is a fictional character in the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants.

Mermaid Man is a semi-retired superhero who has aged well past his prime. His costume most closely resembles that of comic book hero Aquaman, with the addition of a star-shaped mask, a scallop-shell bra, and a pair of fuzzy slippers. Mermaid Man's underwater lair and method of crime fighting is a parody of Batman, and his "invisible Boat-Mobile is a parody of Wonder Woman's invisible plane.

Mermaid Man's sidekick is Barnacle Boy, who he treats like a child even though Barnacle Boy is sixty-eight years old. Mermaid Man appears to be in the advanced stages of senility, often forgetting what he was talking about, or what he was doing. This is not a problem for SpongeBob and Patrick, who unconditionally adore the two heroes and managed to coax them out of retirement and back into television. SpongeBob has appeared with them in six different shorts — often involving a supervillain, a supergadget, or some combination of the two and making a film about the heroes.

Mermaid Man's foes include Man Ray (who is an anthropomorphic manta ray, not famous photographer Man Ray), The Dirty Bubble, The Jumbo Shrimp, Sinster Slug, the retired Atomic Flounder, Kelp Thing and the Sneaky Hermit.

The character is voiced by Academy Award-winning actor Ernest Borgnine.
