Hawkman and his lady. The old Justice league aliens with wings. He was second to Kal El in the superpower ratings.

Oh, and Birdman who needed the sun.

Oh, and Photar the Australian superhero in Astroboy who also needed the sun. He died fighting in the rain

Aquaman was very very cool, as was the Green Lantern.

Flash was another favourite.

Flash Gordon yet another.

Mandrake, the Phantom, Ironman.

Green Arrow was debonair, but fairly impotent.

Of course for totally different reasons, how could I have forgotten Danger Mouse, Bananaman, Rodger Ramjet (he's our man hero of our nation) and the Greatest American Superhero. He made flying believable. I'm sure I'd crash if I lost the manual too. [img]smile.gif[/img]

How about Desslock (a villain) from Starblazers? I dug him. Used to call my bro Desslock as a nickname. (Derek -> Des -> Desslock)

George of the Jungle, Hercules, Captain America, Captain Marvel (Shazam!)


Oh oh! THOR! A cripple by day, one whack of the stick and Asgards favourite metamorphs before our eyes!

Then there was the Hulk. An interesting analogy for the berzerk amongst us. The Thing was a poor copy.

How about Swamp Thing though?

ahhh memories.
