50 greatest Comic book characters

[stargazer]

Empire made a list of the 50 greatest comic book characters, and guess who made it to the top of the list. http://www.empireonline.com/50greatestcomiccharacters/



Go DC!

 

[Ikaris-Eternal]

honestly, who else would it have been?

 

[IRON_Lad]

Suck it Wizard. Finally a real list!

 

[Sawyer]

Superman at #1...how original. Should've been Bats.

 

[Flash Facts]

The Flash isn't on that list

 

[TheCorpulent1]

He hasn't had the best couple of years.

 

[Jack O Lantern]

Doc Ock and The Green Goblin aren't on the list but Captain Hanncock is?

Wolverine and Constanie ahead of Spider-Man?

What do you expect from a magazine that ranked Buffy the second greatest TV show ever.

 

[webhead921]

Why is wolverine ahead of spider-man on that list?!?!?

 

[cerealkiller182]

I actually think its a pretty solid list.

 

[The Denialist]

I actually think its a pretty solid list.

So do I. I'd have ranked Luthor higher, and I wouldn't have put Judge Dredd in front of the Joker, but the rest I more or less agree with.

Nice to see Midnighter/Apollo, Cerebus, and Spider Jerusalem on the list.

 

[The Question]

Doc Ock and The Green Goblin aren't on the list but Captain Hanncock is?

Are you dissing Tintin? If so, we have problems, sir.

 

[The Shadow]

Well, if they started in the old pulp magazines, then they're not originally comic book characters.

 

[Flash Facts]

He hasn't had the best couple of years.

Very true but he is still one of the most recognizable comic characters and has at least 20 years of good stories and that's just Wally.

I would have expected other that didn't make it to be on the list too.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I guess we just have different tastes from Empire.

 

[Anubis]

Pfft, Lists are for people who think about their taxes while they *********e.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I... don't even know how to respond to that.

 

[Sugarculted]

No Silver Surfer? No Yorrick? No Green Goblin? Disappointing list, Empire. Disappointing.

 

[Harlekin]

Constantine ranks in the top five? Really?

 

[Anubis]

I... don't even know how to respond to that.

Don't respond, Just let it sink in. Wisdom of the ages my friend.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Um... okay. I'm gonna go away now.

 

[bored]

Deadpool is only no. 45, when clearly he should take up at least thirty spots. Injustice!

 

[yenaled]

rawr rawr rawr my opinion differs.

 

[Ash J. Williams]

I find it weird how a magazine that focuses on film came up with a list that something to do with comics.

Wtf?!
