SO many superheroes I’ve never even heard of… Am I getting old, or just not as big a geek as I thought? ---

Woo Hoo! Best showing yet! I would have thought Miracle Man would have been much more popular with this crowd… ---

#21! I did well this time! Could have done better but I refuse to reuse names so I left Batman off the list 2 more times. I should rethink that… And I really think the Joker is a bad “super” villain. I know the rationale but its hard for me to consider him super anything when he doesn’t have any super powers or is a threat to the world. ---

Damn everything! This might be my best performance ever. If only I’d gone with my first mind and said Joker. _shakes fist upward_ ---

> [@](#): > > And I really think the Joker is a bad “super” villain. I know the rationale but its hard for me to consider him super anything when he doesn’t have any super powers or is a threat to the world. He’s superhumanly insane. Anyone who gets too close to him goes insane themselves, and his crazy ideas are so crazy they actually end up working. ---

It was the superhero group that did me in. I was coming off a DC/Batman streak of answers, so Justice League just popped up. Should have known everybody else would be thinking of X-Men. ---

It looks to me like he should have gotten 10 points for 2: Zatanna (5 matches), 4 points for 3: Booster Gold (2 matches), 4 points for 8: Legion of Superheroes (2 matches), and 2 points each for each of his 7 other answers. I’ve a strong hunch, though, that he was playing to lose (why didn’t you enter the Rare Entries contest?). ---

I don’t visit this forum often, and the game threads less often. “Superhero” caught my eye, so I participated. I missed the ‘Rare Entries’ contest. ---

Stupid me. I can accept that a superhero doesn’t have to be super, but to me, a supervillain does… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-feud-superheroes-by-little-nemo-game-over/585980.md?page=4)
