| I respect your choice to exclude Aquaman. It shows much kindness on your part that you would spare the most inane superhero of all a whole lot of pain and discrimination. |

Will one of our Columbian members PLEASE find this and scan some pages for me? It's such a tasteless idea that John Waters should direct the film version. Pope Reborn as Superhero in Comic
In the comic book, the pope dies and is reborn with superpowers beyond the infallibility Catholic doctrine gave him on Earth.
Leon said he was saddened by the death Saturday of John Paul II, whom he admired. The artist worried some people might be offended by such a revered figure becoming a comic book hero, but said the reception so far has been good.
Apart from predominantly Catholic Colombia, the book will be sold in Poland and publishers in Mexico, Canada and the United States have expressed interest, Leon said.
He also plans to produce Incredible Popeman action dolls.
"He isn't John Paul II any more," Leon said. "From now on, he's the Incredible Popeman." ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/sollipsist/?chartstyle=kaonashi">

| And here I was, thinking that Stan Lee's animated musical superhero version of Ringo Starr was the height of comicbook oddness. |

The Green Hornet, if it wasn't for Kato the guy was absolutely useless, each time he was in trouble you heard a scream KATO!!!!!!!! and the poor Bruce Lee had to help him, hit all the bad guys, open the door of the car, put the hat, drive alone in the front seat and prepare a martini and the food for the Green Hornet when they returned home. At the end the TV series was a faillure because nobody expected the success of Kato, the sidekick was more important than the main character, in many countries of Asia al the people knew the series as The Kato Show.

I voted other because there are 4 heroes on not on the list that are ultimately pointless. One is Aquaman. All he can do is talk to fish. the other three are Marv, Wendy, and the Wonder Dog. IF you ever got a chance to see the old Justice League or Super Friends or whatever it was called you'd know who I'm talking about. Marv,Wendy, and The Wonder Dog were these two kids and a dog that were supposedly "superheroes" but all they ever did was get into trouble and have to wait to be saved. They also were there to provide some moral to the story. I nominate these four "heroes" for the most useless superheroes ------------- "O' lady look up in time o' lady look out of love 'n you should have us all O' you should have us fall" "Bill's Corpse" By Captain Beefheart |

Not so useless Mirco, well at least for the producers of the 60´s TV show. There was a famous episode where the Green Hornet meets Batman (The producers wanted to help´The Green Hornet due to the low rating in USA compared to the great ratings in Asia), so they couldn't plan something silliest than a fight between Robin and Kato. There was no winner, it was an honorable tie, but it was even worst, nobody could ever believe the skinny Burt Ward (Robin) could have the slightest chance against Kato (Bruce Lee). Everybody knew Kato would had kicked the Boy Wonder's a$$ through all Gotham City. This stupid fight sealed the fate of The Green Hornet, because the Kato fans (Who were more than the Green Hornet's fans) would ever accept something so ridiculous. Iván -------------

Superman: You know me!! I took out muy Krypton dick , put on a Zircon rubber and and jumped in Spiderman: And did you make her yell for it? Superman: Well her, not exactly!!! However , the Invisible Man...... ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Dick in the Mouth Man is pretty useless. Fortunately, he's only
been mentioned once or twice and has never been drawn. Gizz
Trough Girl is pretty pointless too.

although, I spend my youth in North America, I always hated those superheroes comics. all these Marvel comics super-powered heroes were all the same.
I did enjoy those Calvin & Hobbes , and especially those Bloom County comics. Some of those strips had rolling on the floor. Berked Breathe was sooooooo funny . Toooooo bad he stopped. More recently, Seth, Clowes, Brown, and many more are actually brilliant new generation. ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

| I said Mighty Mouse. He is an oxymoron. Who could a mouse defend from an evil force that couldn't already defend himself? A gnat perhaps? Or maybe a spider? Think about it. (This could easily turn into a philosophy thread) |
