Who in your opinion is the greatist super hero.

I belive that batman is the greatist super hero. Not beacuse he is the strongest, or the fastest or even the most badass. I belive being sans superpowers is the reason for him being the greatist. He had to work for everything he has and can do but he risks his life in a way in which superman never does. I think we all could be brave if we were invincible but batman isn't and thats what makes him such a relatable character.

Too many favorites to have just one.

That and i often like villans more than heroes too.

In terms of strength and sheer power it's Superman for DC and The Sentry for Marvel
My personal favourite is Green Lantern (specifically Kyle and Hal. Gardner is a tool and John's a bit dull)
It depends on who's writing the comics at the time. Batman has some of the best stories behind him, mostly written by Grant Morrison and Jeph Loeb but for the last 7 or so years, Geoff Johns has made Green Lantern the most epic, bad-ass and interesting superhero by a country mile. He's amazing
My favourite comic book, however, is Kick-Ass. Mark Millar is, in my opinion, the most talented writer in comics right now
In terms of being interesting characters, Rorschach and Dr. Manhattan are also fantastic, Rorschach for seeing the whole world in black and white and Dr. Manhattan for his ascension into god-like status

I dunno, he often seems invincible despite being unpowered. But yeah, I see what you mean.

I like him more in other people stories, though. When he's setting a standard that Nightwing can't live up to, making things tough on various Batgirls cause he needs to, or yelling at Huntress cause that's what she's there for, then he works better, IMHO.

I like the bat-family, though. In particular, Huntress, because she questions the frankly insane code of heroing conduct, and because of her relatable personal problems. The other superheroes don't like her, and she doesn't have any friends. Also, the purple and black thing she wears almost looks sensible if you squint a bit, as opposed to ridiculously bizarre like everyone else's (and her white and purple thing).

The greatest superhero is the most popular one of course, the more popular a superhero, the more inpenetrable their plot armour!

Personally, I'd have to go with Wolverine, he is awesome, bub.

I would have to say either Superman, Spider-man or Batman. I mean there are alot of reasons why I think they are the greatest superhero.
