Hey, you never know. Someone's Silver Sable could be someone else's Moon Knight or Iron Fist. Different strokes for different folks.
Me? I like Deadpool. I've liked him even before the movie came out and made him a hot commodity. Some find him particularly annoying and wish that he would have never existed, but I'm not one of those people.
On the other hand, fuck Hank Pym. Fuck him in his "Science first!" ass, fuck him for being a wife-beating psychopath, and fuck him for perpetuating the idea that Ant-Man is in any way more interesting than The Wasp. Outside of the Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes cartoon and the MCU embittered old fart interpretation, I could literally be driven to sleep by any given scene with him in it. I am not only happy that Scott Lang is the movies' version of Ant-Man, I almost wish Pym didn't even have to be a factor, but y'know. Comic book accuracy.
There, now I'm open to attack for my selectively stupid taste in characters that favors Deadpool over one of the founding members of The Avengers.
Who else favors one character over another, more popular character or has never seen the appeal of a particular superhero?*
*Anyone who answers "Batman" is getting automatically kicked from the game, because how dare you.
Oh jeez, where do I start?
Yes, I like Batman. I do not like GodBats, and that's honestly one of the biggest reasons I adore your Batman because he's still a mentally unstable rookie instead of this master of deception and calculation. Honestly it just seems like the character is getting watered down more and more to the point where I think eventually Batman will unironically be revealed to be the second coming of Christ or some shit.
Superman's the same way. Yes, I like Superman. I do not like Superman when he's poorly written. Again, Andy's Supes is amazingly well done and I applaud him. Most writers seem to think what makes Superman interesting is throwing nigh unstoppable threats at him that he easily beats because he's fucking Superman. No. Superman's most interesting when he's human, and his villains are more interesting when they're a force he can't just beat with his powers.
Oh and also, said it before, but I'm not a huge fan of the Punisher and honestly most of what I see makes me cringe in embarrassment because most writers seem to just think he's cool because he kills people. Coming from a person who's never written Punisher before this RP, in my own humble opinion, what makes him interesting is the psychological pain that causes that violence. He's not just supposed to be some EBIC balls-to-the-walls action hero (I say despite my Frank being a balls-to-the-walls action hero), he's a damaged man thrashing out at those who've wronged both him and countless other people.
Anyway there's my two cents. And while I'm at it since you did say 'who else prefers another character over a more popular hero', I adore the Question and he's a good lad who's gone through too much shit but stayed good lad and didn't deserve to die of lung cancer I luv u Vic <3 (Renee's cool too I guess).
