The SciFi Pulse Top Ten Of None, DC & Marvel Comic Book Heroes
Written by Ian Cullen on October 13, 2009 – 3:00 pm -
We here at SciFi Pulse all love our comics and have been trying to give as broad an outlook on comic books as possible, which can be tough given that there are so many great DC and Marvel heroes.
Anyway, for our first top ten SciFi Pulse writers Wayne Hall, Marx Pyle, and myself got together, discussed no DC and Marvel characters, compiled a list of our favorites, and explained why we liked them. So for you guys here is our top ten of none Marvel and DC heroes. Feel free to leave you comments or maybe even give us your own top ten favorites.
Number Ten: For 10 we decided to go with Conan The Barbarian who was created by popular pulp writer Robert E. Howard and currently has some wonderfully bloody adventures with Dark Horse Comics. Our reasons for Conan was that we feel he’s the ultimate Fantasy based character and also taps into our more primal fantasies. We’d all like to be able to eat, drink and do what we want while being able to retain a six pack and get all those women. What guy doesn’t?
Number Nine: For number 9 we went with Tarzan because we all feel that Edgar Rice Burroughs was definitely onto something with this iconic character. We think that Tarzan still holds an important message in these times where we are all thinking about stuff such as global warming and the environment, and Tarzan being at one with the jungle and being able to communicate with the animals of the jungle sort of lends itself to a number of allegorical stories about global warming. Added to which, if you ever read some of the earlier stories in the pulps you’ll find that we also had Tarzan go up against the supernatural as well. So he’s a bit of an all rounder. Read more »
