Best Performances

Heath Ledger and Robert Downey Jr's respective performances as comic book characters recently have been in my opinion, excellent. What others do you think are either perfect portrayals of characters or maybe an actor's own take on a character which worked out well.

One I really liked was Hugo Weaving in V for Vendetta. It probably wasn't a spot on portrayal, but his voice work was just perfect.

In my opinion, he was a poor Bruce Wayne, but to date, the best Batman.

I'll agree with you that Hugh Jackman is a great Wolverine. But Toby Maguire was terrible as Spiderman! Topher Grace should have been Spiderman

Heath Ledger, Christian Bale, Aaron Eckhart, Jack Nicholson, Willem Dafoe, Christopher Reeve, Robert Downey Jr., Ed Norton, Michelle Pieffer (sp?), Alfred Molina, Tobey Maguire, Gary Oldman, Liam Neeson, Tim Roth, Cillian Murphy, Jackie Earle Haley, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Ray Stevenson, & Brandon Lee are all people who have pulled off great performances. Yes, some have been better than others but they all did great in their respective roles. Of course this list could've ended up being much longer, but I had to stop it somewhere.

I've been reading a lot of stuff about were people are bashing Christian Bale as an actor and with his performance in The Dark Knight. The major thing they complain about was his voice. But freakin Jackie Earle Haley who played Rorschach, did a voice just as low or lower than Bale.
