Morphology

supermanhood = superman (semi-transparent) = super + man + hood

Morphologically clear as superman + -hood, but this sense invokes a specialized philosophical ideal (Übermensch) so semantic access is less direct for average learners.

Etymology

Supermanhood comes from super ('above') plus man and the suffix -hood ('state'), so it means the 'state of being a super man'. Many writers use 'superman' to translate the German word 'Übermensch' in Nietzsche's work, which is the idea of going beyond normal morals and limits, so the word fits this philosophical meaning.
