I know there's a discussion about which powers you'd like to have, but my question is a little different.

Other than Superman, Batman, or Wonder Woman, which DC hero would you most like to be? Or least like to be?

 

Personally, I'm still trying to make up my mind. Very often the characters with the "best" powers have horrible personal histories. I am trying to find a good balance between personal tragedy and awesome powers.

If I could be one of the Big 3, I would be...

Wonder Woman
Batman
Superman

The less you expect, the more you'll be surprised. Hopefully, pleasantly so.

I voted Batman for gadgets

- the other 2 may as well be walking Gods

 

otherwise,

not sure if I have any favorite DC superhero

I did enjoy reading the female Manhunter

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhunter_(Kate_Spencer)

wish they didn't cancel that series

 

I miss the new Batgirl too, Cassandra Cain

what are we supposed to do for villians?

If you do put up villians I'm voting for Hush.

I love all 3 of the Holy DC Trinity.  I been a Batman reader my whole 42 years.  Adam West was the man then.  Reading DC opened me to both Superman and Wonder Woman as well.  I have many favorites of the DCU.  ...bit of a Supergirl fetish...

If I were to choose a single DCU character it would be Green Lanturn (Hal Jordon).

Superman for me...

A close second would be Green Lantern...

But in the game you need to create a new superhero right? and all the dc sharacters would be NPCs?

I hope marvel would do the same...

I always found Saturn Girl to be cuter than Supergirl.

When I finally got a Saturn Girl figure in Heroclix, I was very pleased.

 

As for me: Batman is way cooler than Superman.

I'm more of a Marvel fan, but, my choice would be Professor Magnus - creator of the Metal Men. I think they were DC.

I would be The Flash, would love to be able to run that fast. Next, besides the big 3 I would be Captain Marvel, he is like Zues, freakin awesome.

No offense to the three listed, all great superheros.  But I would really dive in to a created character.  I've got a few I've used in superhero concepts of my past that I would take over the big ones.

While I chose Superman....,because his powers, even with vulnerabilities are just awesome.

Who wouldn't want to fly, have superspeed, superstrength, invulnerability, heat vision, super breath, and man....am I missing anything?

 

But, if I wasn't going to be one of the "Big three" as it was put, I would be Dr. Fate all the way.

I'm not into the full scale darkness of Batman so I'd probably rather be Nightwing. Though the ability to transform into the "World's Mightiest Mortal" - Captain Marvel - would be awesome. Getting mugged? "SHAZAM!" Not any more! It'd solve your "alter ego" problems because you look entirely differant and can turn it on and off at will, no messy costumes to hide.

And I'd totally ask Power Girl out because, as Captain Marvel, I could take her. And by that I mean "take" her. lol

I like the Joker because of his sick witty sense of humor.  :)

I like Supergirl.

Siegal & Shuster created 2 characters from Krypton- Superman in the 30's who was what they wanted to be like and Supergirl after the Holocaust. She grew up in advanced and alien Kryptonian society and in her teens saw everyone she knew die (of either Kryptonite or lead poisoning-I forget which).  Then she goes to live with her care-bear cousin from Kansas.

Admittedly DC has always treated her like some kind of girl scout cheerleader, but thats no reason why I have to.

In all honest none of them all three of them are boy/girl scouts and I don't think anyone could realistically be that much of a goody two shoes. On the other hand I really don't like the senseless villainy of their counterparts either.

If I had super powers I would probably be a rogue, that is the gray line between hero and villain.
