I am aware that vigilanties are not the same thing as anti-heros, but Venom does fit into both catagories.

In Venom's mind, he is the hero where as spider-man is the villian.

He's not really an Anti-Hero though....
I agree with The Yautja on this he really is a Vigilante...

There are several types of anti-heros, one of which is a vigilante.

Like The Punisher, my favorite of all vigilantes. He has no powers whatsoever, just a crap load of guns and the skill to use them. The comics are some of the goriest I've seen, and the movie they made after them was good too.

But as long as we're speaking of anti-heroes, has anyone seen Pitch Black or The Chronicles of Riddick? Not sure if Riddick was talked about yet, but there are 9 pages I don't want to have to rifle through.

Anyway, draco's right Humorbot, vigilantes are essentially anti-heroes. J00 h45 833|\| H4xx0r3d.

Daredevil's pretty cool. Gotta love a guy that runs around in a costume like that.

But he doesn't use guns, that's a major minus for me.

The punisher is a pretty awesome charactor. He rides solo like Fett, i like that about him.

Doctor Strange is my favorite of all time the cartoon in 2007 and a character in Marvel Ultimate Alliance is gonna bring Dr Strange into the light finally...for a minute anyway.

I don't think Venom will be the villian in Spidey3. More like the struggle of being Venom on the Sandman backdrop. More like an introduction of Venom into the series. Hope they dont mess it up.

Spidey is my favorite.

That's because Rob Liefield (creator of Cable and Deadpool) copied him right off Deadshot :P


But yes. My favorite DC/Marvel superheroes would definitely be the Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Captain America, Magneto, Catwoman, and--of course--Superman and Batman.

Other than that, I love the Samaritan and the Confessor from Kurt Busiek's Astro City, and The Great Machine from the comic series Ex Machina.

From my understanding, Deadpool was designed to simply be a one time villian, but he became too popular for his own good.

Just a few deadpool tidbits that I want to throw in:

In the "ettiquite" ( I am sure that is not correct, but my rabbits have rendered m dictionary useless) lesson, Captain America helps old ladies across the street, and Deadpool dresses old ladies up in underoos. Captain America always makes sure to locate do-gooders and helps them (shows picture of the Captain with boyscouts). Deadpool always makes sure to locate and mock do-gooders (shows a picture of Deadpool laughing at boyscouts). Even though he does not share their ideas, Captain America always helps vegetarians find good vegetables. Deadpool ties vegetarians down and force feeds them meatloaf.

When Deadpool went to the zoo, many of the whales were not breathing well.

Who doesn't like the Tick?  But I must admit that I prefer the Sewer Urchin and Die Fledermaus (the guy that looks like a bat).

The cartoon show and the comic book are awesome.  They also had a short lived live action show, but it sucked really bad.

Die Fledermaus wasn't cool, he was a jerk.  That's why I like him, because I found it amusing everytime the American Maid would get mad at him for flirting with someone else.

Yea but I think Tick is more satire than that. I still like the episode where the Tick meets up with that guy that's supposed to be "Galactus" and he ends up riding around on him in a golf cart.

Freakazoid used to be so much better than this if I can remember. Then again, I was kind of little.

I liked the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They were cool.

Oh and the Biker Mice from Mars were the coolest!!!!!!!!!

Other than that most of the superheroes are lame except some from Marvel and Batman. I like Batman because he wasn't superpowerful. He was just a rich guy who had spare time to run around in tights.

Superman's awsome, but my final vote goes to him, Spidey, Flash, and Toxin.

I like Spawn, although he's more of an Anti-Hero than a Superhero, but still...

I don't really like any of the popular Superheros (Batman, Superman, Spiderman, ect) except for the X-Men, so I guess I'd pick them.

Now we need a Super Villian Thread...:D
