Here's a list of Superman titles that should be required reading for non-Supes fans. Buy them as TPBs if you want, but I'm pretty sure there are legal ways of reading them for free online. Google at your own peril.gideonkain said:Cyclops.
Seriously, who likes that guy?!
His personality is so utterly pompous and dick-headed and his mutant powers are Eye Lasers.
He doesn't even wear a strap around his visor, every damn battle the first thing that happens is the enemy knocks that thing off and he spends the rest of the fight blindly searching the ground around him only to unleash a mighty blast at the end when someone tells him to open his eyes.
I honestly used to feel pretty much the same way, but the Max line changed my opinion of him a little bit. He's still a horrible person, but now he doesn't piss me off as much.McMarbles said:Unlikely... I find the whole concept of the character repulsive.UnmotivatedSlacker said:As someone who doesn't really like the Punisher as well, I would recommend reading the Punisher Max line if you haven't. I think he works better when he's not in a world filled with super heroes.McMarbles said:I really, REALLY can't stand the Punisher. I don't think he adds much of anything to the Marvel universe.
I haven't really read much of Plastic Man since his early appearances, but from what I understand he's somewhat immortal, immune to telepathy, and is one of the few people who could deal with Martian Manhunter when he lost his fire weakness and went crazy. By the way, Martian Manhunter is one of the few people that kinda scares Superman.Nannernade said:Plastic man, there is no room in comics for skimpy underwear with no tights underneath, plus what I did see of him was just him being overly silly and not really much of a threat to anybody.
