Favourite Heroes (and Teams)
A list of my favourite heroes and hero teams.
A list of my favourite heroes and hero teams.
There are many aspects of Superman that I can identify with. I also like the Christ-like personification he carries. Maybe someday he will get some good writers for his titles (yes, there are some good ones).
Was introduced to him via the New Warriors in the 90s, and I looked his presentation. Now he's teaming with another underused hero, Darkhawk, so that is very cool.
The first fav that wasn't a mainstream hero. His title was also the first #1 I ever obtained.
Another awesome Marvel hero that has suffered from bad writers (not lately though).
Like Superman, great character. Mostly terrible comics it seems.
The only professing Christian in Marvel (that I know of). Plus he's got a German background like me so...
He's a card gamer... I'm a card gamer... We get along well.
Definitely one of the coolest X-Men.
Not sure why I like this hero--he just always struck a neat chord with me.
Robin, Beast Boy, and Raven I like especially
The perfect mix of intelligence, stealth, fear, and sheer will power. Superpowers never required. Awesome.
One of the best outsider characters in comics.
First: I am not a fan of Ennis's Punisher. Frank Castle is all of us when we see a wrong that must be right-ed at all costs. The best version of Punisher is the one that is still fully connected to his humanity despite that he buries it.
I have always loved knights, and Marvel's resident knight is the best of both worlds.
I'm an Anglophile, and what kind would I be if I didn't love the British Cap. He's got a very cool role too since he has to protect "British magic" (e.g. Excalibur, Avalon, The Holy Grail) as well as the UK.
Probably my second favourite hero ever. Despite that his comic titles are inconsistently good, Cap will always rock because it's what he stands for that I love.
Spidey is my first favourite hero and still the one I relate to best.
