With inspiration from Gazza's 007 thread, I've decided to start a thread discussing the best and worst from the Superhero world, whilst it's rather ambiguous I'm going to say that anyone can constitute a superhero who fights on the side of good, they don't necessarily have to be from a comic book!
My personal favourite is Iron Man, not so much the hero himself but Tony Stark has got to be the coolest alter-ego in the history of the world, Iron Man was built when he was in a cave in the middle-east with the smallest amount of resources available, he is 'intimate' with Gwyneth Paltrow, he's in the Avengers and his dialogue with Loki in the Avengers was cinema history being made!
For another of my favourites, I'll no doubt get slaughtered but I'm going to say Buffy Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the TV Series anyway......, she's died like 3 times and come back everytime, she completely destroyed the weak damsel in distress stereotype, Sarah Michelle Gellar is absolutely stunning and of course she beat Dracula, the original horror villain!

Best: Batman - freelance 00 agent with a cape and mask, aside from the gadgets he relies on his own strength and mettle to fight bad guys!
Worst: Iron Man, utter phoney, it's all about the suit!

Pfft! Disagree, yes his strength comes from the suit, which he used his own intellect to design and build and the fighting moves he has are still him fighting, just with the suit to give him extra strength!

I trust that is purely from an artistic standpoint, Rog?

Very funny, Len. I always thought Clark Kent was on the sauce and woke up one morning and got his usual pants / tights(?) routine mixed up. The rest, as they say, is history.

That blue and red mix never did anything for me either. A big S on his chest showed either an oversized ego or a miniscule memory of what he was called. Lois Lane has to be the thickest dame ever not to see that SM and Clark Kent were identical.

Nah, not fooled by that. Besides I saw the back story.
Stupid broad syndrome - they were never in the same room together and CK was always "just in the vicinity" !!!
Call me suspicious or cynical.
