Characters that are unknown to the mainstream comics fan that you've always had a liking for.

Devil Slayer, a one time Defender, for moi'. Always liked Eric.
 
Love most of Psionex too, the "villain" New Warriors. Especially Mathemanic and Coronary.

More recent, Temugin, the Mandarin's son.

Wuxia, *****es. :up:
 
Fast answer? The Shroud. He's a total rip-off of The Shadow, but I don't care. :p His whole "pretending to be a villain to destroy organized crime from within" could have been much cooler had it been handled recently, and not during the tail end of the Silver Age.
 
The Gibbon, The Mindworm, Merlin/Warlock/Maha Yogi, Powerhouse, Diamondhead
 
I always liked Machine Man, Until they turned him into Robo-bastard. I also like non-Nextwave Monica Rambeau, maybe because I remember when when she was first introduced in an AMS annual.
 
my user-namesake and the sons of the tiger
 
A lot fo the obscure characters I like have been popping up lately, basically:

Slapstick
Ricochet
Terror, Inc
 
Paladin, Solo, Cardiac, White Tiger I, Prowler and Shamrock.


I think every last one of them are missed opportunities.
 
Cutthroat, Arabian Knight, Defensor, Cardiac, Terror inc

and Most importantly


Armless Tiger Man
 
How can you not love someone named armless Tiger man?

Those characters sucked IMO before Ellis got his hands on them.

The Eternals

The Jackel

The Eternals where pretty cool.
 
Kasper Cole aka the White Tiger. (Not the one with the necklice, the one that works as an avatar for the Black Panther)

A guy named Casper is the White Tiger? Who'da thunk it?
 
I think Preist thought that would be funny when he came up with the idea.
