Who is your favorite Superhero?

[Pendlum]

Comic universes; V, and Batman.

Games; Big Boss/Naked Snake, MMX, and Samus Aaron, in some order.

The Batman, but probably because I analyzed The Dark Knight Returns for a university paper. That, and he kicked superman's ass using brainpower... not "super" powers.

/Arguments ensue about whether Batman is actually a super hero since he has no super powers :suspect:

The Dark Knight Returns is definitely one of my favorite comics. I've read it a billion times. I still need to get the sequel. I actually just bought Batman: Year One yesterday which is also by Miller. It's only real flaw is how short it is.

I'm with you! Snake is great. MGS3 is one of my favourite games.

1 billion hours of cutscenes, 5 minutes of gameplay :09:

 

[Pendlum]

I think you must be thinking of MGS4.

Snake Eater is a great game with interactive cutscenes. MGS4 is the one suffering from cutscene overload. :tongue:

I think you must be thinking of MGS4.

I concur.

Superman

Batman of course. As a kid, I remember coming home from school to watch it on TV. Even now with The Dark Knight movies, I'm like a kid all over again.

Superman. The original and still the best. What I like most about him is that he is so powerful he could take over the world but chooses instead to serve. I think that is the definition of "hero".

By the way all of those strories showing Batman beating Superman by one means or another; utterly ridiculous. I don't care how smart the writers want to portray Batman. When you look at the powers Superman possesses, there is no way he could be beaten by a mere human.

WOW! I think I just channeled my inner geek.

I could think of one reason, and you touch upon it in your first paragraph. :tongue2:

Hmmm. I think you might be implying that Batman is neither Super nor a hero.

Perhaps. But I do like to think that it is.

we need a favorite supervillian thread

 

[midwestbeef]

Superman is easily my favorite superhero. For starters, I really like his back story and he is so iconic. Also, my nickname is superman. Friends and family call me that or clark kent.

Also, my nickname is superman.

If the cape fits...

I was never into comics or superheroes, but when I was around 10 there was a television show called Greatest American Hero, or something like that. Guy finds a suit and becomes a flying superhero. I loved that show! I had such a crush on that curly headed guy, too! So cute!
