MaxPower

Since we are all relative geeks around here, who is your favourite Comic Book Super hero? And why?

I have a few fav's but if I were to pick one, it probably would have to be Spider-man.

I've been a fan of his since I was a kid and I think his powers are the most unique and diverse. Spidey sense, wall crawling, super strength, web shooters (if only man made). The whole thing is just cool.

MaxPower, he has the name that you want to touch, but you musn't touch!
His name sounds good in your ear, but when you hear it, you musn't fear.
Cause his name can be said, in many different ways...
Sung to the tune of Goldfinger

2 favorites since 1960's:
Iron Man. Overcame adversity. Cool gadgets.
The Thing. Tongue in cheek, crude humor and It's clobberin time.

I don't know if I would call him a superhero but I loved Sgt. Rock comics when I was a big comic fan.
Politically incorrect nowadays.

As a kid my hands down favorite was Shang Chi Master of Kung Fu. I aslo really enjoyed The Green Lantern and the Justice League. I also bought alot of Spiderman. That Shang Chi was one cool customer!

Oh dude, I have a ton of Shang Chi comics! They were far out! There was some absolutely astounding artwork in those issues.

Not my favourite, but an insanely underused (and super cool) character was Iron Fist. I hope they are still going to make the movie.

Favourite though, has to be Wolverine. I liked that he wasn't the glitzy, tall dark and handsome stereotypical hero, and those claws were friggin cool, bub!

Something about Silver Surfer always appealed - never really followed the character just the concept intrigued me. A visual form of Colin Wilson's Outsider.....a seminal book for me.

Carex! My dad has all but... I think 3 or 4 of the original Warlord series. I drew him a 3 x 4' poster as a gift one year. He still has it up on the wall at his house.

Ooooh, Shakira... Mike Grell was an amazing artist.

I had them all... once.

Spider-Man or Batman.

Spider-man because his struggling with the dual identity is believable, and because his whole "power = responsibility" thing is interesting.

Batman because he's just a guy with cool toys.
