I'll start.
My favorite Heroes are: Alpha Flight because they are totally awesome.
My favorite villain is Magneto from the X-Men:First Class movie
My favourite superhero is the Batmobile.
My favourite villain is the Spider-Mobile.
So do you have a specific who is a favorite in Alpha Flight?
And what stood out about First Class (Movie) Magneto over traditional Magneto? (Of course, reading Magneto now in Uncanny X-Men, I can see why you'd like any form of Magneto other than the current...)
And... /head desk
Ironically, I even PM'ed you Phil about locking this thread, or deleting it or splitting the OT.
Heh, apologies, I was going for irony.
I read your PM after Rob had posted what he did so thought I'd leave it at the point he had.
I have to say I really enjoyed Magneto in First Class, and I'd never enjoyed his character previously in comics (& films)
I also enjoyed Magneto in First Class, but then, I've enjoyed him elsewhere, too. Mostly under Claremont. There's a reason I like Claremont a lot.
OTOH, I do have trouble telling him and Xavier apart in that movie. They look alike to me.

I can't pick a single AF character. I love them all so much.
The reason I loved Magneto First Class was that he convinced me of his cause. I really could picture myself joining his brotherhood. Kind of exposed a bit of who I am deep inside and that's why I liked him.
Outside of AF I liked, as I said, Rogue and Shinobi Shaw. Rogue in the late 70's to early 90's, Shaw when he was created, the Upstarts storyline and characters were cool and original, I hated that the powers that be back then killed the idea so fast. It was a very good storyline.
Keep your stick on the ice.
Live it.
Wasn't she a hero for most of that?
Speaking of Hellfire Club and suchlike... I like Mystique (comics, and to a lesser extent movies), and liked Emma as a villain. (Loathe her as a hero.) Neither would make my top 10 list, but like 'em both.
Also, Christine, but she's not Marvel.
I am getting in sooo much trouble...
