bigredrobot asked: Top 5 Heroes?
Real life or comics?
Real life, no particular order: Muhammad Ali, Richard Pryor, Malcolm X, my mother, and probably the RZA. Honorable mentions: El-P, Tupac Shakur, Marcus Garvey, Curtis Mayfield.
Comics (in order) 1. Spider-Man 2. The Flash (generally Wally West, but I’m open to being convinced for Barry Allen) 3. Static 4. Gambit 5. Variable
If we’re being honest, Gambit varies sometimes, too. There’s a pool of a lot of dudes (Gambit, Black Panther, Hawkeye, certain versions of Wolverine, Tommy Monaghan, and others) who switch in and out of 4 and 5.
If this list was supposed to be for the gender neutral “heroes,” add Elektra into my top 5, bumping Gambit, and add Jubilee, Black Widow, Rocket, and… I’m blanking, maybe Black Cat onto the bench.
Typhoid Mary & Green Goblin (Harry) are my favorite villains, tied for #1. Hypno Hustler is #2.
whoops, forgot my writing heroes, no order again: Kool G Rap, the GZA, Robert Frost, John Keats, and James Ellroy.
