The vigilante known as Spoiler is actually Stephanie Brown, who first created a costume in order to ruin the criminal plans of her supervillain father, Cluemaster. She quickly became an ally of Batman and Robin before she briefly took over as the Girl Wonder herself. While her time as Robin was tragic , Stephanie Brown later returned as the new Batgirl, making her the only character to hold both positions in the Bat-Family. Brown continues to operate as Spoiler alongside the Bat-Family and has been trained extensively by each member to become one of the coolest DC heroes.
One of the smoothest talkers in the DC universe is without a doubt John Constantine , who has used his particular gift for gab and his powerful magical abilities to become a cool and unapologetic mystical con man who is just as comfortable grifting Superman as he is the local barkeep.
Constantine isn't exactly loved by his teammates in Justice League Dark or other superheroes from the DC Universe, but his ongoing presence in other media that includes movies and TV proves that he's a hit among fans, and it's not just because he wears a cool trenchcoat. Static has incredibly powerful electrical abilities and a brilliant scientific mind coupled with a quick wit and youthful confidence that earned Static an animated series in the 90s that further popularized the character.
While he first appeared in the Wildstorm universe, Midnighter joined the rest of the DC Universe when his reality was merged with DC following the Flashpoint event.
Midnighter is often compared to DC's Batman though the two characters are incredibly different despite their similar taste in dark costumes. Midnighter has enhanced abilities that he uses violently to take out threats to the world, which he does with a dark sense of humor, sharp wit, and a leather duster.
On the live-action side, HBO's recent Watchmen show somewhat redeemed the franchise and left viewers wanting more. Comic books have a long tradition of the teen superhero, dating back to the introduction of Batman's famous sidekick Robin in So it made sense when the most famous teen superhero team of all, the Teen Titans, debuted in with a lineup including Robin, along with Kid Flash, Aqualad, and Wonder Girl. Following many incarnations and a roster expansion including not just sidekicks, but independent teen heroes like Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Raven, the title is essentially a permanent fixture in DC's plans.
Teen Titans has been the archetypal teen superhero book for generations, inspiring everything from Gen 13 tied for tenth on this list to Rick Veitch's Bratpack, to even other DC Comics, like Young Justice and Titans, starring now-grown versions of the original membership. Like many of the teams on this list, the Teen Titans have been represented in other forms of media - most notably a mids anime-esque Cartoon Network series, itself relaunched as a comedy series called Teen Titans Go!
If you like this, you'll love the best Teen Titans comics of all time. Strictly speaking, the Fantastic Four aren't so much a superhero team as they are a family of super-powered adventurers. And it's that unique nature that's made them stand out for 50 years.
Sure, they've saved the world dozens of times and amassed an impressive roster of supervillain foes, but the Fantastic Four has always been more about the spirit of exploration than meting out justice, and the power of intelligence over brute force. And though there have been many temporary lineup changes over the year, the Fantastic Four's core of Mr.
Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and the Thing has remained one of the most beloved dynamics in all of fiction. The team has been adapted into a variety of media from cartoons to four live-action movies, three that made it into theaters and one that will never legally see the light of day and stayed a consistent presence in Marvel's publishing line until Make sure you've read all of the best Fantastic Four stories out there.
When the Children of the Atom were first created in , at the height of Marvel's character creation boom, they had a bit of trouble getting a foothold on the comic reading audience. After 66 issues, the book went into reprints for years. Then along came Len Wein and Dave Cockrum with an "All-New, All-Different" cast in , and the team became a top seller for the next several decades. That led to a two-year run on the X-Men title by Hickman, with a family of mutant titles springing up around it - which still continues on to this day.
Relive the greatest hits with our expansive list of the best X-Men stories of all time. So the hard part wasn't picking the 1 and 2 superteams in comic book history, it was picking which was 1 and which was 2.
The Justice League has a lot going for it. It's the team almost all modern-day superteams are modeled after or were inspired by, which almost got it the top spot by default. It traditionally stars no less than three Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman of arguably the five most iconic and recognizable superheroes on the planet Spider-Man and the Hulk are the other two, in case you're wondering, though the latter is now in debate with Iron Man.
And it's been a consistent seller since the dawn of the 'New 52,' with a regular stable of spin-offs in tow. Up until a certain movie, it was probably even more of a household name than any other team or title in this countdown, so in the end, the Justice League only finished 2 because of who finished Kyle's role on the JLA along with his significance in resurrecting the Green Lantern Corps interested me a great deal.
J'onn J'onzz is a character who has often acted as the soul of the Justice League, if not arguably the DC Universe itself. He's distant and mysterious but possesses an enormous amount of compassion and empathy to his character. J'onn plays up the alien visitor aspect to his character much better than Superman and it's this contrast that makes his desire to protect his second home all the more appealing to me.
His new film spiked my interest for the character as the Tony Stark presented there was intelligent, cocky and extremely funny. Tim is my favourite Robin by far. His intelligence at such a young age makes for an excellent counterpart for Batman. What's more, Tim wasn't given the role of Robin like Dick and Jason were. He actively sought to find out who Batman was and become the next Robin.
That is why Tim is my 3rd favourite member of the Batman family. The Justice League cartoon was where I first saw Diana and further reading the JLA comics gave me more reason to become interested in the character.
But more importantly, Diana has been a uniquely portrayed character. She is a symbol of beauty and grace whilst also being tough and stoic. This duelling portrayal can be hard for writers to balance correctly but when done right, Wonder Woman stories can be very interesting.
Her values, motives and message continue to make her relevant to this day. Lvenger This new site layout sucks. Just in case it wasn't obvious. My Favourite Superheroes Title explains it all really.
