Worst Comic Book Character Ever

- Start date
I'd have to say I'm really not particularly fond of Superman he's just far too powerful. He seems to have super everything. I have seen him use his super weaving ability and his super friction ability. With the super friction he used it to melt the bars to a prison. Why super friction why not his Laser eyes or even his unparalleled strength?
Oh and to the poster who dislikes Wolverine due to lack of character development. You should check out X-Force it actually shows Wolverine has more to him then just an animal side. Or even in the current Dark Reign era you see him at war with himself a lot when it comes to his son Daken. You don't have to like Wolverine but I feel he's at his best in that series mostly because the writer is doing a pretty good job.

although sometimes marvel does seem to have a very gritty world, DC has a lot of stupid heroes and villains, but at least DC has the guts ti actually kill people off, marvel does: but they always come back.mechanixis said:
my favorite for worst comic book character ever has to be deathlock, now don't get me wrong, i liked him for a long time, but then i bought one comic: he dies of a heart attack, next issue: he's back and the last comic all but never existed... he used to be interesting, but he is past his prime, sadly because he was one of my favorites. some of you will disagree with me perhaps, but i have a long history of not reading bad comics.
as for worst comic in existance? easy: archie. i hate everyone on that comic book, except for betty
aquaman was a close for 2nd. he died: and no one cared.
Bloody hell... Oh well, DC got some things right *goes back to reading dark victory*.EnzoHonda said:

While i do agree with FF, storm has been in a few interesting stories and Daredevil has had some great Arcs over the yearsMakeshift Koala said:
Speed Ball. He makes bouncing balls appear out of nowhere; worst POWER ever.
As for character, Spiderman. In my opinion, he's to whiny. I understand that he is an emotionally deep and complex character and that he has had a lot to dea with [ex. Gwen Stacy] and should be a bit emo, but it doesn't make for a very good read. Its just my opinion. No flames, please.

Daken and Jason Todd are just an assholes.
The Punisher is very shallow.
Iron Man is way to authoritarian. (Norman Osborn proves why fascism isn't so popular anymore.)
Phantomah and Stardust are just insane.

There's Ebony from the Spirit. That didn't age well.
There is also virtually every character Rob Liefeld ever created. The only ones that managed to escape being terrible were written completely different.

More than just the big titles, I've found some gems tucked away in (for example) Waterstones. And last I saw, WH Smiths were selling Marvel single-issues, though they hid them in the kids section. Plenty of newsagents carry comics too.molester jester said:
Still, though, Forbidden Planet is your best bet. The tiny one in Southampton moved recently and now had a bigger property in the middle of town. Its like geek heaven
