Best superhero from your country?

Hopefully I am right with this one. lol (Sorry for my grammar as English is not my native language.)

Anyway, I was wondering who the best superhero(ine) from your country was. This especially applies to those not from America, as most superheroes are from there.

Also, not to create any confusion, what I mean by the question is the Superhero whose nationality is from your country.

(i.e. Sunfire - Japanese, Captain America - American, etc)

This isn't limited to Marvel or DC though, any local comic publisher is fine. If you could, please also describe the said superhero. Thanks! I am just curious!

Dolph Lundgren

Spock

spock?

Yes. I am not human you know. I am a vulcan/troll. :-D

@elderskaar: who is this Dolph Lungdren? :)

@crossbolt

nevermind me

There aren't any.

New 52 Captain Steel Hank Heywood Jr., is from my country.

Silly

I find that hard to believe. Which country are you from?

Dolph is this man

@vinomonster: Same country. :)

@sundeep: Indonesia. There's Komodo from Marvel and Cascade from DC but neither of them are good. They're just typical superhumans.

For me it would probably be between Johnny Alpha and Marvelman (Miracleman) I think.

Runners up would be Captain Britain, V from V for Vendetta (if he counts), John Constantine (if he counts), Meggan, Luther Arkwright, Etrigan the Demon, Jack Staff, Cat Girl, Steel Claw, Pete Wisdom, Robot Archie, Knight & Squire, and Durham Red :)

Captain Britain

Isn't there supposed to be an decent-sized Indonesian comic book studio, Skylar Comics? Anyone from them?

• The League Of The Extraordinary Gentlemen.
• John Constantine.
• V.
• James Bond.
• Lara Croft.
• Judge Dredd.
• Sherlock Holmes.
• King Arthur.
• S.T.R.I.K.E
• Marvelman
• Miracleman
• Captain U.K
• Captain Britain.
• The Doctor.

The Doctrinator

I'm from America m

@citizensentry

Mega-City One is in the US (the thread is concerning character nationality not country of origin)

It'd be cool if it was just country of origin, but I think a lot of countries don't have much of a Comic book industry.

He may have been cloned in the post-apocalyptic US megalopolis Mega-City One, but Judge “I Am the Law” Dredd is as British as they come. Created for 2000 AD as a satire of brutal policing, today his adventures seem more like a fly-on-the-wall documentary. In contrast to Marvel’s the Punisher, who is a vigilante, Dredd has the full weight of the law behind his role as judge, jury, and executioner.

Wolverine. Can't think of many other characters in fiction that are Canadian.

Yup, he was cloned in the United States, which makes him an American character created by Brits in a British comic.

Otherwise I would've put him down myself :)

In Czech Republic, we have only one "superhero" that I know of.

Pérák, an urban legend in Prague during WWII. He was said to be a man with springs on his feet/boots who could jump over whole streets and fought Nazis and Nazi collaborants.

We might not have comic book superheroes, but I think that having one as a traditional urban legend is much cooler-some people actually believed that he really exists!

Very unique and very awesome indeed!

@parachomp: You're lucky to be Canadian. lol

Why didn't you? he is a British comic book character published by Rebellion Developments. (Which by the way, is based in Oxford, England).

@crossbolt: I love being Canadian.

Are you going to give a reason why? or is it just patriotism, I understand either.

Captain Canuck, Deadpool, and all of Alpha Flight come to mind.

are there any dutch super heroes?

Spider-Man?

(no, not that one, this one)

lol

Yup.

@citizensentry: Our cities are balanced and simplistic. The seasons always bring various things to do and beautiful scenery. Let's not forget maple syrup.

Pixie Unfortunately she is the only hero I know that comes from Wales.

None, there isnt any heroes or villiains who are portuguese.

I agree completely. Canada is the worlds little brother. you f*ck with Canada you f*ck with us.

You're Welsh? Cool, I did not know that.

Welsh Superheroes

• Superted
• Stinger
• Red Dragon
• Red Dragon (Gareth)
• Red Dragon (Siadwell)
• Evans the Fist
• Dai Thomas (Sometimes he's kinda' had powers IIRC)
• Captain Cymru
• Gog
• Dafyd Ap Iowerth
• Plancton Jones? (not on Comicvine)
• Madoc (not on Comicvine)
• Marsalla of the Mists (not on Comicvine)

I'm from Belgium, we have some lame comic characters.

Hey pal, never put yourself or your country down. Belgium is a lovely place I went there last summer. and I don't know any Belgian superheroes but I would like you to list them.

They are not lame! Belgium has one of the richest comic histories in the world.

@sundeep: A bunch of cliché'd characters if you ask me.

None.

I can claim, what, Arania, Aztec and Jamie Reyes. That's it.

I'll say the Doctor (not biologically, yeah, but we've basically adopted him) with Sherlock Holmes and John Constantine coming in behind. None of which are your traditional superhero.

@mandarinestro: Fair enough. Anyway, I'm English (Greater London) so, I'd go with either Blade, Psylocke or Manchester Black.

@sundeep: What about Indian characters? Any that you like?

Not sure if he's technically Indian (but then, neither am I, and I'm only half-Indian by ethnicity), but this guy looks like he'll be fun...
