Underrated superheroes

Postby Sammy Boy » Tue Mar 22, 2011 3:02 am

Who do you think are some of the most underrated superheroes in comics and/or the movies?

I think Cyclops has been underrated and not appreciated enough, especially in the X-Men films.

They made him out to be some guy that only follows orders (read: weak) and is basically useless when his glasses are lost of broken.

My votes:
Firestar (come on, he's begging to be turned into a movie!)
Black Lightning (cool name and costume)
Hellboy (I thought his movies were cool)

Jono AKA Chamber from X-Men. Who knew that losing a mouth and half his chest would make a guy so appealing... wait did I just type that out loud

Also, Warren Ellis' Stormwatch. Keeps getting ignored in favor of the edgier Authority.

The live-action Hellboys. Haven't seen the animated ones.
And here's one I forgot: Captain Marvel, aka Billy Batson. He so needs a movie or two.

In what world is Hellboy underrated? Sorry it just seems that any comic fan loves the comics and any fantasy action movie fan likes the movies.

Anyways
Booster Gold
Nova
What fish said
Daken (Dark Wolverine, ok so he is more of a super-villian/antihero)
X-23(she's actually no where near as laughable as she was during the first X-force run)
Follow and suggest movies.

Songbird from the Thunderbolts. A strong character and female team leader who isn't around as someone's girlfriend.
Amadeus Cho. Why does he not have his own cartoon??? WHY?!
The Magdalena. Frank on faith issues, even though they took the Dan Brown route for backstory and I don't agree with the conclusions all the time.

You know who is an underrated superhero? Your Mom.

No I mean seriously, she gave birth to you. You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for her suffering.
