Favorite Classic Comic Book Super Hero

Master Of Puppets

So a bunch of us got to reminiscing about days of old while partaking in a few pops last night and we got to talking about our favorite old school comic book super heroes. I have listed what I can remember and was wondering who your favorite might be. The choices are as follows...

Superman

Spiderman

Batman

The Flash

Iron Man

The Punisher

The Hulk

The Thing

Captain America

Thor

Spawn

Wolverine

Daredevil

The Green Lantern

I'd like to hear your reason(s) for choosing the one you do but it's definitely not required.

I was mainly a Superman kid. I went through a Batman phase and a Judge Dredd phase at one point - but still preferred Superman.

I don't read comics any more, other than reminiscing over my TinTin collection.

But when I was a kid I had this small Superman comic book, it was the size of a regular soft back novel - only all the stories were in black and white.

So every night I would get out my crayons and colour in all the comic strips - about 300 pages of Superman cartoon stories!

I always had a preference as to how the logo was drawn. It was always the same regular modern 'S' diamond, as per Chris Reeves, but because it was a hand drawn comic, not all the logos were exactly the same.

For example there would be very tiny variations in the angle of the diamond, or the curvature of the S and the geometry of the logo sections.

... every now and again I would find one which just stood out and said "SUPERMAN" - like none other could...

... and I would then gently run my finger over it like it was a precious jewel.... and say "wow."

Oh those were the days.

there seems to be a few that could have been added to your list like

Judge Dredd

The Joker

Magneto

Wonderwoman

SwampThing

Venom

Hellboy

Catwoman

Just to name a few.

Me personally I went through 3 phases Superman,Spiderman and Batman. I liked several of the others but, those were my 3 favorites. This is a tough choice which to select but I have to go with Superman but I could vote for all 3 !!

I've always been a Batman fan. I had one of those great little corgi batmobiles back in the 60's. The one with the flame shooting in and out as you push the car along. Anyone else remember those?

For all you Superfriend fans, here is a very funny link.
Take 10 minutes off, sit back, and have a good laugh:

Obviously it's tough to get all the significant characters listed on here. But I always enjoyed the X-men heroes above all else.
