Favorite Super Hero???

Curious if anyone cares, what is your favorite super hero and why?

Mine:



Why? Because justice isn't always just.

Frank Castle is a good one. I always thought he was a more extreme version of Bruce Wayne (aka Batman), though.

I'm pretty old school when it comes to appreciating individuals with an extreme skill-set. So for me, my vote goes for any one of the folks over at the Hall of Justice. Well - with the exception of the two goofballs on the right. The dog can stay, though. Any dog that can wear a cape is ok in my book.

And to this day, these colorful, spandex-wearing crusaders remind me of happy, safe and care-free Saturday mornings as a kid. Nothing finer than that.

The punisher's only human so cant technically be a superhero

But seeing as regular humans are allowed, it has to be the Comedian.
