My favourite is Garfield without a doubt. I have all..if not most of his books. It's a shame the movie is absolute crap.

I was never a big comic book reader. So I'd have to say the character that I invented back when i was 7 or 8 in a series of comics i did in a sketchbook of mine. looking back at that stuff i did, it was more or less a projection of myself at that time.

Otherwise Batman.

Does Calvin and Hobbes count as a comic book? Cause if so, every character in the strip.

Besides Tintin, Asterix & Co., Val�rian was probably my favourite (Sci-Fi) comics hero; here's the first album I read (in Danish, however), many years ago:

As I said, my favorite comic character is Captain Haddock.

I grow up with Tintin and Axterix (both complete collections).


However, my grown up comic winner would be "Torpedo 1936" based on Luca Torelli a cold blood ganster created by Abuli.

Luca Torelli alias "Torpedo" (in french, sorry)

Isn't there a difference between comic books and comic strips? Apples and Oranges.

Put me down for Daredevil. With Silver Surfer a close second and Iron Man coming in third.

When I joined that cult I sold all my #1 issues of everything...many...practically gave them away as tools of the devil. Some nights I curl up in the fetal position and rock myself to sleep thinking about it.

If you're into Frank Miller's Batman, you owe it to yourself to read his "Born Again" series with Daredevil. (It was drawn by David Mazzuchelli, of "Year One" fame.)

From a more humorous point of view, I miss Alan Ford & The TNT Group (probably, anyway, a comic serial limited to Italy, or at most some parts of Europe):



... Rather hilarious, together with Superciuk (ciucco is a word for drunk in Italian), the alcoholized (anti-)super-hero who steals from the poor to give to the rich!

Hmm, I always enjoyed Spiderman, and most of the X-men

But Calvin and Hobbes are my favorite!

Alright, I'll be the first to say it, Superman is still my favorite comic book hero.

But I'll agree with Calvin & Hobbes as the best comic ever.
