So yeah. For me Tony was always both the guy I could relate too, and want to be (more or less). He didn't have any powers, he wasn't a ninja/physicist/doctor/explorer/autist combo. He was a dude with cash and a brain who used that to become something better.
Probably Superman. He just wants the best for as many people as possible, and I think that's just something we all need to look up to.

The Flash! He told jokes while all the other kids were beating each other up!
Josiah Jackson
You forgot >is a literal villain
Brody Gomez
Pretty obvious desu senpai
Jordan Peterson
So he's a grey character with problems and complexities? He's an example that sometimes even the best intentions can have catastrophic results, and that just "doing the right thing" isn't always an option.
Yeah, I think I'll continue liking him user. A hero doesn't have to be perfect, he can fail and get back up.

>the world is ending, fuck saving lives, I need to punch Captain America in the face is not a "complexity". It's psychosis.

I've been reading Iron Man since the 80s and he's one of my favorite characters. You really need to reevaluate things if you're inspired by Iron Man and he's your childhood hero.

I guess if you find yourself at a war you're just gonna lay there and let them buttfuck you to death?
Compared to Reed & Doom he's a goddamn "you can be him as well" character. Why not? Despite all of his shortcomings, he pulls himself up every single time and comes back stronger.
Logan Johnson
I only look up to comic book heroes if they have the same gender and skin color as me
Representation matters racist sexist OP

Superman faces invasions all the time, yet he doesn't resort to genocide every time.

Different stories, different circumstances, different character. Now you're just grasping at straws user.

Wolverine was my favorite guy when I was a kid. I used to watch the early 90's X-Men cartoon a lot
He was the tough guy who was always talking trash, and saying "bub" and I liked that when he would be like "Come get some bub!". I remember one scene in particular, I think the Blob knocks him down and tells him to "eat pavement" and he quips "Needs salt" and gets back up to fight, it was great
Also liked that he had this outsider/lone wolf kind of side to him where he would just run off on his own when he got pissed off
Wolverine was pretty cool in the 90's

Yes user, Stark is more "realistic" compared to those OP guys. Thanks for contributing user.
Interesting site user. But still, we can rationalize all we want, but they're all unrealistic. Stark is just closer to reality.

Emma Frost >beautiful >confident >good at influencing people/has power over people
Colton Diaz
cont., I also liked that she was unapologetic about who she was. Even when she wasn't a villain she didn't change and was okay with being kind of a bitch.
Nicholas Cox
>>is a conservative in a sea of liberals Outside of Civil War, he's really more right-leaning libertarian than anything.
And even then, Civil War was just him playing the role of authoritarian bastard in trying to mitigate the fallout from stamford and make the best out of a shitty situation.
Jason Peterson
I wonder, are you okay with her latest descend into villaindom?

>Kidnapped Ulysses But that's good
Julian Smith
Are we still talking about the same guy who went around beating up heroes because he thought they were infinging on his copyright?
Angel Evans
That's a funny way of saying "adapting his stolen, dangerous tech."
Hudson Jenkins
Not gonna lie, the last time I followed X-Men she was still teaching Gen X, no idea what she's up to these days. It wasn't until like a year ago that I found out about her diamond form, ha.
Dominic Ramirez
Hawkeye inspired me when he stood against HErcules. He said something like "doing what is right before thinking, so you dont have time to think about it and not doing it"
Ethan Brooks
This is gonna come off as edgy but, as a kid I always related with Venom most of all
>tries to be good but doesn't have a clear moral compass and ends up doing bad things >obsesses over the idea of having an enemy to fight >horrible luck either way
I've always related to Eddie, and his need to try and be good despite being a psycho has always inspired me, I also always admired his relationship with the symbiote, as someone who doesn't connect with other people very well as a kid I always saw the symbiote as an idea partner
Cooper King
I feel you, I looked up to Wolverine because I'm short and hairy
