Who is your idol?

My idol is Mike Ness, I love his music from the start and how he has developed as an artist, if I could be anyone I would be Mike, you??

When I was younger I never had a father figure (think am beyond the years of needing one now, not that I ever really wanted one), a person I looked up to, and who I felt was the right role model to follow is Superman. I still look up to him now. That is why he will always be my favourite character in fictional story telling.

@supreme_marvel: that's pretty sweet.

What would Henry Rollins do?

Hunter S. Thompson.

Batman.

Martin Luther King Jr.

None other than the Clown Prince <3

Immortal777

A few... special selected mods and staff that treat me with kindness in the jungle of terror and anger.... But if I were to chose someone personal... it would be my big sister and mom who helped in tough times.

Nathan Fillion, doing what he loves, fun to be around, always there for everyone =)

Mike Ness, Henry Rollins, Hunter S Thompson, some good picks so far.

I have to go with Ava Gardner. ♥

MLK Defeated Racism with one of the greatest speeches in human history and being one of the greatest Americans of all time , Rosa Parks Defeated it by staying seated on a bus , Ali defeated it by punching it in the face.... repeatedly and then taunting it.

Charlie Chaplin.

No one is worthy of my idolizing!

@bruxae: What ever you say ...

Tim McIlrath from Rise Against, Bruce Lee, and Ip Man are amognst my top idols.

In real life: My Dad.

In comics: Captain America.

Dad never said anything quite this epic, but I don't need him to. He's still #1 my idol. :)

I agree. This comment may have been criticized but I think while it's good/okay to drawinspiration from a person (or multiple people), idolizing someone (worshiping or deifying them) isn't worth it. In common-speak people may use it to mean inspiration+love/care-for, but it's really more of an unhealthy adoration ("can do no wrong" etc etc).

This beautiful man:

This :)

In comic books it is Grant Morrison,in real life it should be Jordan maybe.

My older sister and M Night Shyamalan

I look up to Superman, Captain America and Spider-Man. They always do what's right, and all three are people I aspire to be like. As a kid I always wanted to become Hulk and Daredevil, but I don't really look up to them. Or aspire to be like them, I just thought they were really cool.

So I guess I'd say Superman, Captain America and Spider-Man.

Although I wouldn't really "worship" them as an "idol", I simply look up to them for inspiration and aspire to be like them.

John Wayne

and James Arness's character from Gunsmoke, Matt Dillon.

I can get behind this. They are all exemplary heroes/people. The kind that would want to make a difference even if they didn't have their abilities.

Who invented barbeque sauce? Because it's him. (or her)

Martin Luther King Jr.

Malcolm X. And I'm Asian.

Micheal Jordan, Morgan Freeman, and Batman.

I am my own idol

@mandarinestro: Hey, Orientals can have terrible taste too. *pats shoulder* :)

@ostyo: Dang
