The Definitive Your TOP 5 COMICS CHARACTERS Thread

1. Spider-Man. Great character, best villains gallery in all of comics, great costume design. 

2. Captain Mar-Vell. As far as space related characters go, he tops all for me. 

3. Daredevil. The grittiness of Miller/Johnsons run (his best writing AND artwork ever IMO) and the fact that it continued after Miller left was great. Also one of the best things Marvel has brought to the TV screen ever.

4. Moon Knight. Again, a fun character with a fun run in the 80s with excellent art. Not sure how he fared in later appearances into the late 80s and 90s but for me, his initial appearances and initial solo series is enough to win me over. 

5.  Batman. When I was 16 I finally found an area of Batman that worked for me. Adams' work in the early 70s and most anything through the 80s. The Dark Knight was cool and I could appreciate him whereas earlier, I found the campiness too much and in the 90's well, I just find 90's art never worked for me even though it was the "it" thing when I was a young kid. 

Honourable Mentions: Werewolf By Night, Tomb of Dracula, Swamp Thing, Defenders.

Trying to infer whether to think 'definitive to my comic world' or 'definitive to comics IMO'?

I'm gonna go with the former.

  • Superman (Definitive "superhero" to me.)
  • Batman (Definitive human-hero to me.)
  • Spawn
  • Iron Man
  • Spider-Man (Definitive Marvel/Stan Lee character.)

Classic characters.  

I'd also add one of the all-time great comic book duos, Biffa Bacon and Knacka, and also The Brown Bottle.
