I don't think he is, because the hatred he has for them is on another level

Blackspider:
There is a scientific research that proves that when someone has an immeasurable hatred for something, it is either due to the fact that they are jealous of that thing because of the openness or they are scared that they may be seen differently and decides to show hate.

Again I am not saying anything is obvious just my observations

AfricaGalactic:
Unrelatable =/= uninspiring. What you have is a non-sequitur fallacy.

You know the old saying that "DC characters are gods trying to be people, and Marvel characters are people trying to be gods", right?

I always liken DC heroes to Greek pantheon: God-like in sheer powers and abilities, perfect, beautiful etc. Even a human like Batman is deified because of his pitch perfect attributes. Marvel heroes on the other hand are losers. They're flawed. Even with their powers, they seem like the underdogs. They are essentially "people". That has always been their characterization since 1961.

All this doesn't mean we can't be "inspired" by DC heroes. Both Marvel and DC inspire. EOD

you have come again
How do you expect me to like that nonsense?
Jesus Christ!!! i rather die than being gay

Minemrys:
thekingishere uninspiring and unrelatable are 2 different beasts. U relate to s0mething if u can see yourself as that thing. But u can be inspired say by the thought of that thing to do s0mething else. Who can see himself in superman or batman? I can't. But i am inspired by superman's optimism and batman's sense of justice. Then again, i see myself, though little aspects in peter parker. I can relate to peter parker, but i can't relate to superman. But btw the two, i get inspired to be optimistic when i remember a superman quote.

Blackspider:
That analysis is completely flawed. Both comic book has character that are unrelatable. There are many DC characters that are more relatable than marvel like;
Black lightening - Racism,
Flash - Loss,
Mr terrific - Loss,
Raven - Pains and burden,
Wonder woman - Choice,
Cyborg - Isolation,
Batman - Trauma
Green arrow - Loss

Coupled with the facts that we have the most relatable villains

AfricaGalactic:
Most of the characterization for the DC heroes you listed started with the Silver Age (50s to 60s). Golden Age (30s to 40s) heroes were mostly one-dimensional (yes, even including Namor and Captain America). But Marvel (1961) was the first to kick off the whole relatable schtick with Spiderman, xmen etc. Unlike DC, Marvel has been like that since Day 1. By day 1, I mean Marvel Comics. Not Timely or Atlas.

Blackspider:
That still doesn't change anything, the fact that you still use the golden age era to justify your point against DC and yet will run back to 1961 to show how relatable marvel character are is pure fallacy. Both comic book has relatable and unrelatable characters period.

me, i am talking abt the c0mic b0oks and how the characterz have been written in them. Yea, s0me characterz are relatable for dc but the largely kn0wn 0nes aren't in the traditi0nal sense. And there are marvel characterz that are unrelatable but largely many marvel characterz are relatable. I find it hard relating to barry allen h0nestly. The character i find m0st relatable is wally west.

List just ONE thing wrong with being gay

Blackspider:
I have always told you this your outward expression of homophobia is suspicious. Most homophobes I know are quiet and don't talk much about homosexuality. They rather keep to themselves than be found in such discussion but when they find one is, their true colors shows out and it is mostly brutal.

AfricaGalactic:

Nickshrapnel:
He has absolutely no reason, people like him will crucify a racist(someone that hates another person because of his skin color) and yet dine with an homophobe(someone that hates another person because of his sexual preference)

hulk616:
why on earth should I not have reasons to hate homosexuals? Its just like saying i dont have reason to hate murders, rapists, sociopaths, and devils.

Thank God, these abnormal people are not allowed in Nigeria

Nickshrapnel:
Let’s look at it in this hypothetical scenario, your boss is a cool headed guy who you so much like not because of his professionalism alone but because of the way he relate with you outside the work place. You’ve known him for more than a year now and you’ve become very good friends and so one day he decides to introduce you to his partner. Then you realize that he is gay. What will you do?

hulk616:
stop being his friend, leave the company and report to police for arrest and jailing for 14 years

Raalsalghul:
Pu7pl3 thanks for the mention.

I'm happy to know that you've got me in mind.

But right from the onset, the problem has never been with Cavill, but with WB.

Cavill is interested in returning, but WB seems to be sidelining that project.

He said "you'll see" so keep watching

Nickshrapnel:
One question, have you been ever out of Africa?

hulk616:
yes

Nickshrapnel:
Then I won’t have this conversation with you again.

pu7pl3:
Apart from Spiderman,which other relatable A list character does marvel have?

pu7pl3:

Minemrys:
charles xavier, magneto, t0ny stark (c0mics own), bruce banner, storm.

Nickshrapnel:
The Punisher

pu7pl3:
Apart from Spiderman,which other relatable A list character does marvel have?

And Spiderman's relatability is quite cliché cos if you really think about it superman has to be like one of the most relatable characters of all time(going by Spiderman's relatability that is)

hulk616:


Because this nonsense is acceptable there meaning it is right?

pu7pl3:
How is the punisher more relatable than Batman or even Deathstroke?
