h you never know harry might end up being the "Merlin" by the time the series ends. he's already way ahead of almost every wizard in his age group.Guffe said:

BAM! I was going to say Pug, and it's highly debatable as to which is more powerful.Daymo said:
But still, love that line Miranda pulls when she meets him for the first time in the books 'Hello, daddy!'
LOL, yet another Disney cartoon want to watch again...(!) Damn you... sir! =PJacob Haggarty said:Bitches please...
Merlin.
OT: No-one for Jaya Ballard? No? Well, she's definitely hot! (pun intended)
I've seen people chose Rincewind from Discworld but I think Mustrum Ridcully is a better candidate than Rincewind. Before Ridcully because the Archchancellor of Unseen University the whole structure of the institution was in disarray. I suppose the rule hasn't changed, the one that says the person who kills the Archchancellor becomes the next one but, with Ridcully there's really no killing him. Hell, the man survived a shower in one which was created by Bloody Stupid Johnson!
A very, very close second would be The Librarian. Of course some points were taken away since he was turned into an Orangutan. Granted, he was the first simian on The Disc's moon and, to survive falling off of the Disc.

^He's one, then there is Harry Dresden, who is effing awesome (and the books come out at a good pace too...), and Belgarath. Can't think of anyone else that's actually a wizard wizard, but I have a few magic users.Chemical Alia said:I'm not really invested in wizards all that much, but I guess Miraculix is my favorite because I love the art.
Dr. Strange is the most powerful wizard in fiction, but as far as who I like the most I'll have to say Nathaniel (Bartimaeus), he's such a likeable and relatable little prick.

Pug from the magician series, I would have said macros, but people in the books keep saying Pug has become more powerful than him.
I might also say Magnus the Red but I'm not sure if he counts with his insane powers from Tzeentch.

When you can spell 'decide' correctly then I'll consider your opinion valid, but until then Harry Potter is fine.
O.T. Rincewind. Fucking Rincewind, man.

Hey now people, show some love for Ged, from the Earthsea series. That guy is essentially Gandalf as a young man. Plus, he was Archmage and a Dragonlord, and he even wandered through the land of the dead to kick some wizard ass a few times.
wait wait wait, hold up.
why has no one mentioned Tom Bombadil? technically not a dedicated wizard, yet still the strongest being pretty much anywhere in the multiverse. id like to see voldemort,Melkor, The dark one and fucking hitler team up against Tom, because he would hand all thier asses to them with enough time to cook a god damn Lasagne that very same evening.

Always had a soft spot for Ridcully in the Discworld series. Maybe it's just me, but I've always gotten the impression that there's more going on there than meets the eye. Not saying he's a brilliant mastermind by any stretch, far from it, but everyone seems to dismiss him as eccentric and bumbling, not to mention all that great of a wizard, but I've always figured there's more there.
Plus he's the only wizard I know that's practical enough to know sometimes all you need is a sturdy crossbow.
I remember Raistlin from the old Dragonlance series as well, I loved those books as a kid. Plus in terms or just outright power he's capable of kicking every other fictional wizards ass from Rand Al Bore to Dumbledore to Gandalf and Merlin. He kills gods. Still have some fond memories of those books, though it's been probably around nine years since I last read em so no clue how well they hold up.

I have a big enough list of undecided between Merlin from the Sword in the Stone, Zedd or Nathan from Sword of Truth, Harry Dresden or Gandalf.
