Yeah I hate superman as well, I think at the time Superman was made lots of different heros were made, so DC needed someone who could beat them all.... still the Superfans are going to hate us and say he has cooler enemys than Lex, like bizzaro Superman and whatnot.... I just don´t like him.

I like Spiderman, Batman and the X-men but I only read them when my little brother leaves them aroud the house. I do however watch the Spiderman and X-men animated searies when on TV.


To be fair, I did once read a really good comic book about Superman. Superman: Red Son. It followed what would have happened if Supes landed in the U.S.S.R. instead of the States, and in it he completely takes over the world. I highly recommend it to any comic/graphic novel fans.

 

@ Shigsy. your right, and you to may be resurected. Possibly in a mecha form.


Red Son is an amazing story. But i prefer Superman: True Brit. Lots of laughs.

That sounds pretty cool, I like it when alternative reality stettings are explored, X-men had some pretty good ones too, one where a all-out humans vs. mutants war is played through. I´m pretty sure you can get great storys out of any super hero, for me the designer and story teller is most important.

I don´t really read much Donald Duck anymore eventhough there are tonns flying around from my brother but whenever I see one from Don Rosa I read it because they are always really funny, have a great style and I like that they usually play in the past, for example during one of the big gold rushes.


 

Don Rosa is an amazing storyteller. The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck is one of the most important comics ever. No love for the Punisher btw from anyone?

Frank Castle is my favorite Comic book hero, followed closely by the Batman. The Joker is pretty badass too. Killing Joke was the single best comic book experience I have ever had, followed closely by the Punisher Limted Series and the Dark Knight Returns. If you want to read some good comics get the Punisher, #1-18. They are some of the best I have ever read. Klaus Janson, and Wilce Portacio on pencils. Mike Baron on scripts and Scott Williams on Inks. You could probably have all of them for less than 50 bucks, and if you like comics at all it will be worth every penny. Technicaly Batman, Frank Castle, and the Joker aren't super heros but I don't like any of them. Wonder Twins? Fugetaboutit!

The American super heroes like the ones in Marvel or DC comics are laughable when you compare them to anyone of the dragon ball z characters.

Yet Batman would take the cake of being the strongest human alive and another 100 plus points for being a billionaire

And the joker is insane but he's still ridiculously smart???

You know, by the time Goku, Vegeta and the rest finish powering up to SSJ574976686790808 level, (it takes at least 4 episodes or 2 manga tomes) Superman could have killed them all with a fling of a super-booger.

I love the DC Multiverse Superman: Kal was my favorite. It a story where Superman landed on earth during the medieval period and he became a blacksmith and luthor was a ruthless baron.

Superman I know he is a bit of a boyscout superhero but he was the first one really. The first one was powers and the ability to do amazing things. I thought the representation of superman in the Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League, & Justice League Unlimited was really good.

Yes, the Justice League series did much "justice" to portraying Superman.

But at any rate, i don't like Superman much at all. It's Batman all the way for me.

 Yes I agree with this but i see this as the fighters playing around with each other because in DB GT goku transforms to his higher levels in an instance depending on how serious the matter is. For a superman type opponent powering up wouldn't be necessary

Captain Canuck!!! Lol. Hey I got my first writing gig on CC.... Cap rocks, but my all time favorite would have to be Iron Man. Looks, charm, an awesome suit of armour, rich as all hell (usually), gets all the babes, incredibly smart, and an alcoholic. What's not to love?

And now he's finally getting a movie!!
