20 Rorschach
Publisher: DC
First appearance: Watchmen #1, 1986
Created by: Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons
The Travis Bickle of masked vigilantes, Rorschach thought of his ink-splot
patterned cowl as his real face and his real face as his mask. He was the
Watchman who refused to give up his secret identity during the government
clamp down on "masks". And he probably didn't shower much.
19 Nightcrawler
Publisher: Marvel
First appearance: Giant-Size X-Men #1, 1975
Created by: Len Wein, Dave Cockrum
The demonic-looking Teutonic teleporter with the prehensile tail has been a
mainstay of The X-Men since Xavier assembled his second team of misfit
superheroes. Sees himself as a bit of a swashbucklerï¿½ at least, he does
when he's not being a catholic priest.
18 Beast
Publisher: Marvel
First appearance: X-Men #1, 1963
Created by: Stan Lee, Jack Kirby
Two blue-skinned X-Men in a row, blimey! But the loquacious Hank McCoy has
always been a furry fella. When he first joined the X-Men he was pretty
normal looking, except for his hobbit-like feet. But a couple of mutations
later and these days he's looking more like the male lead in Jean Cocteauï¿½s
La Belle Et La Bete. But he can still turn a simple yes into a
multi-syallabled affirmation of the positive inclination and refer to
himself by use of the perpendicular pronoun.
17 Gambit
Publisher: Marvel
First appearance: Uncanny X-Men Annual #14, 1990
Created by: Chris Claremont, Jim Lee
Former thief Gambit is a bit of a ladiesï¿½ man, so presumably heï¿½s not just
overcompensating with big staff he likes clouting villains with. A
strongly-accented Cajun, he has the ability to imbue objects with explosive
kinetic energy, his objects of choice being playing cards.
16 Green Arrow
Publisher: DC
First appearance: More Fun Comics #73, 1941
Created by: Mort Weisinger, George Papp
Starting life in comicsï¿½ Golden Age as a kind of jolly crime-fighting
techno-Robin Hood with customised arrows, The Green Arrow had a complete
makeover in the ï¿½60s, growing a goatee and discovering a social conscience
and political motivation. He was at the forefront of a more adult approach
to superheroes with stories dealing with drugs, social injustice and
suchlike. In the ï¿½80s he finally gained his own title, which helped launch
DCï¿½s adult range (which would evolve into Vertigo).
15 The Flash
Publisher: DC
First appearance: Flash Comics #1, 1940
Created by: Gardner Fox, Harry Lampert
The Scarlet Speedster is the fastest man in the world, which isn't the
greatest way to impress the girls. But he can run so quickly he can cause
hurricanes, which is cool. There have actually been quite a few Flashes
over the years, but the most enduring and most popular was Barry Allen
(1956-85). Although he sacrificed himself, nobody ever stays dead in
comics, and he's currently on the comeback trail.
14 Wonder Woman
Publisher: DC
First appearance: All Star Comics #8, 1941
Created by: William Moulton Martson
Often cited as a feminist icon (though you canï¿½t help wondering if going
around in boob-thrusting bodice and hot pants is truly feminist) Wonder
Woman left her Amazon tribe to fight evil in a world torn apart by the
hatred of men. She certainly not lacking in the powers department ï¿½ she can
fly, she has super strength, stamina and reflexes, she can communicate with
animals, speak any language she has a lasso that forces people to tell the
truth and she has indestructible bracelets. But can she parallel park or
explain the off-side rule?
13 Buffy
Publisher: Dark Horse
First appearance: Buffy The Vampire Slayer, 1992
Created by: Joss Whedon
The only character in this list not to have originated in a comic, Buffy
nevertheless was clearly considered a superhero by enough voters to propel
her into the upper reaches of this list. Okay, she does have superpowers,
and now stars in her own comic title, but what about the secret identity?
But yeah, she does kick ass, so we'll let you offï¿½
12 Thor
Publisher: Marvel
First appearance: Journey Into Mystery #83
Created by: Stan Lee, Larry Lieber, Jack Kirby (and a bunch of pissed
Viking, probably)
The Norse God Of Thunder might seem an unlikely member for the Avengers,
but inbetween battling the hordes of Loki in Asgard Thor found time to
fight alongside Captain America, Iron Man and co against more Earthbound
supervillains. Itï¿½s always handy to have someone with a mystic hammer on
your side even if most of your juvenile audience isn't quite sure how to
pronounce it ï¿½ Mjolnir.
11 Hellboy
Publisher: Dark Horse
First appearance: Hellboy ï¿½ Seed Of Destruction, 1994
Created by: Mike Mignola
It's hard not to love Hellboy. He may have red skin, a tail, horns and an
abnormally large red hand made of stone (what was he up to during puberty?)
but the cigar-chompinï¿½, wisecracking paranormal investigator is full of
endearing little neuroses and character tics. Deep down you just know all
is want is to be normal ï¿½ that's why he files off his horns.
