Who is your favorite Super Hero?
I think Spiderman is totally cool even though there are some others with greater powers.

Wonder woman is the best looking. Linda Carter is still hot.
But nobody kicks butt like the Hulk.
You get David Banner mad and suddenly he turns into a 7 foot green giant and beats the crap out of everybody.
I'm going ot order the Incredible Hulk Dvds.

The Hulk is more of a 'Super Hero' than anyone realises. In the comics, TV and the movies (which I can't believe Ang Lee caught onto with his  ization of the rest of him) the Hulk is a moral being, even in his rage. If he does something bad (destroy a tank, punch down a building, etc) he makes up for it afterwards by moving people to safety, caring for a sick dog or helping the wounded - in either Bruce form or Hulk form. Even in Hulk form he never means to hurt anyone but, there's always 'collateral damage' since the army is always after him. In his Rage, he still finds a heart to atleast try to protect the innocent - most notably in the "Origin" where he doesn't attack Rick and brings Betty to a comfortable spot (though leaping hundreds of feet in the air to get her there) and again when Betty's kidnapped his only thought is to get her back to safety. In the TV series 'Origin' he fights to save a lady with some sort of blood desease, but after he Hulks out and gets to her in her final moments, he has no idea what to do but to comfort her - which is all anyone can do at that point. In "Returns", he fights Thor, but doesn't do permanent damage, and escapes quickly into the night. I could go on, but it's getting late (almost 7:30am) but my simple point is: The Hulk is a lot smarter than everyone thinks of him. That, and.....I want a body like Lou Ferrigno. *** Classic. I'm a Supes man, too. Actually, I'm at a cross betwixt Hulk and Supes. I love the fact that the main difference between Superman and anyother superhero is that Superman's disguise is 'Clark Kent'. He is ALWAYS Superman. He DRESSES UP as Clark. You can shoot Clark in the face and there's no effect. Bruce Wayne, however, has to dress up as Batman. Meet Bruce in a dark alley and you have to wait a few minutes for him to get into costume. With Bruce Banner, you have to wait for him to shred his clothes. |

Those are good points.
The Hulk is moral he doens't do any harm to anybody who has not wronged him.
I can never understand how nobody ever figures out Clark Kent is Superman. He gets hit by a car the car's all bent hood and radiator leaking and Lois is like 'Clark, you could have been hurt.'
'You're right Lois I'll have to be more careful.'
Superman flies off and Kent walks in buttoning his shirt and it's like 'Clark you missed Superman,'
'No, I said hi to him on the way in.'
Sure.

I would vote spiderman, but I have a lot of other superheros. I like Super teams like The Fantastic 4 and X-men.

He is ALWAYS Superman. He DRESSES UP as Clark. That's a good statement. Because without his costume he is still just as powerful unlike most other Superheros. |

Actually this summer's big event is World War Hulk where after being banished from earth he comes back to take revenge. He has killed hundreds in a matter of 4 comics. So I wouldn't consider hulk much of a superhero My favorite hero would probably be the under-appreciated Omega the Unknown. |

How's Hulk banished from Earth? Unless you're talking AU.
He wasn't in 'Timelines', as far as I remember.
Hulk has killed, and he's not been able to prevent killing, but so have several hundred police, yet they're regarded as 'Heroes'.
Omega never really clicked with me.
I always saw him as a rip-off of Logan (just the other side of the hands) and his power makes me writhe my hands to protect my wrists.
It's like watching someone getting a needle poked in the eyeball. *visuals, lol*
Carnage was a waste of ink during the 'Maximum Carnage' series, also.
And they should've kept it to one title.
I hated haveing to collect from the series like that.
Keep it in 'Amazing' 'Spectacular' 'Web of' or 'Ultimate'.
It's harder for me to catalogue it in it's current formate, also.

Have you not payed attention to comics for the last 2 years?
Planet hulk and world war hulk have been some of the biggest series of these two years (excluding civil war)

That got explained in the first Superman movie but I always assumed that was based on his comic book need for anonymity. Maybe not need, more like option to stay as anonymous as possible.
