let's list some ridiculous, yet awesome super hero characters. I'll start off with one from dc comics: detective chimp  you see, he's a chimp, who happens to also be a detective. now normally this would sound like a completely ridiculous concept and idea for a character, but through the wonders of comic books he is actually a pretty interesting character. For starters, he's smarter then most chimps and humans by drinking from the fountain of youth which also gives him eternal life. he's also known for being of the best detectives in the dc universe when it comes to investigating paranormal activity due to his tenure with shadowpact. in short, he's a pretty interesting and likable character when you actually read the comics he's in and I think that dc dodged a bullet on making a character with a ridiculous look somewhat intriguing. |

A mini superhero with super strength that can fly and a dog whose superpower is that he is ugly.

Ridiculous but awesome?
That Taskmaster can just fast forward a kung fu film to do martial arts in super speed.

Mr T L Wolf
Hank Scorpio
He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

...Is that what they're called now? I have the Deadpool/GLI Summer Spectacular! The I in this case is Initiative. No, they're the GLI right now. They started as the Great Lakes Avengers, then became the Lighningrods (think: Thunderbolts), then the Great Lakes X-Men, Great Lakes Defenders, Great Lakes Champions and now Great Lakes Initiative. |
