The Top Ten

Aaron Albert from comicbooks.about.com gave a top ten list of the greatest superheroes.

http://comicbooks.about.com/od/characters/tp/topsuperhero.htm

1. Superman
2. Spider-man
3. Batman
4. Wolverine
5.The Hulk
6. Wonder Woman
7. Green Lantern
8. Captain America
9. Spawn
10. Punisher

I do agree with this pole because Superman of course is the number one character. From his comic books, movies, and cartoons you should know who he is. You have to have a female on their because not all superheroes are men. For some reason everyone loves to love the anti-hero, and one of the most popular is Wolverine. Punisher is in the correct spot because the movie they came out with sucked. The only problem I have with this pole is the fact that he put Spawn in ninth! He should be at least fifth or smaller. I'll explain later why he is so cool. But other than that this pole is correct. Let me know what you guys think?

Blog: Are you a Super Hero?

Taysia007 from SoulCast.com wrote a cool blog about super heroes.

"If you ever read comic books or played Role-Playing Games (RPG's) then you've probably thought about what type of Super Hero you wanted to be. Movies today are bringing back these classic icons from the past and creating whole new generations of people who are falling in love with them. For those of us who grew up comic book fans or such we are able to renew our childhood fantasies. I know I always wanted to be Jean Grey. I'm a fan for the mental powers-thing! So, tell me what Super Hero did you want to be (or still want to be)!"

I have always wondered about what type of superhero or super villain I would be. Of course I would be a good guy because that's just the way I am. I have to have flying because it's just the ultimate way to get around the city. In addition to flying, having super strength would be awesome. You can punch other villains and knock them out cold and you could pick up a car and then throw it. Now that's cool.

People who never read comic books still know the famous superheroes of today because of The Movies! Superhero movies that are coming out in todays world are so much better than they were in the past. It has a lot to do with the directors of todays time and the computer generated images. (CGI) If you watched Spider-man, you can see how the swinging was all CGI and Sam Raimi did a wonderful job. Superheroes will always be apart of the media and will be here for a few more years.
