Who is the PERFECT superhero?

Who is the PERFECT superhero?

This superhero must be under herald level and possess great intelligence and power and must not have too many weaknesses.

Characters I would eliminate: Superman (weakness to kryptonite and magic), Gladiator (powers too dependent on fluctuating confidence levels), Shazam (alterego iis a vulnerable little boy), batman (only a human in power and durability), Green Lantern (weakness to yellow light and finite power source)

so I guess I'm kinda left with Thor, except I'm not too sure about his intelligence.

Spiderman and Batman

Batman is way too weak to be considered the perfect superhero

and spiderman can't fly, which I think the perfect superhero must be able to do

I think Superman, Captain Marvel, Thor, Wonder Woman, and Hercules (classic, non-alcoholic) are some examples of perfect superheroes.

They don't have this weakness anymore . . .

If you want to know the truth it isn't the powers that make the perfect hero it's something else. I know what you meant which powers make a perfect one but no matter what if you use them for good that makes them the perfect power.
I would have to people who I consider the perfect heros:
The first is Batman. A man without superpowers yet he fights for the greater good simply because he doesn't want someone else to go through whay he had to. He is in danger of being killed everytime he goes out yet he still does.
Then I would also say the Thing. His power is to be a large piece of stone. Plus unlike other people Grim can not fit in the world he never will. He will always look different then him. Thor Iron Man Superman after their finished they could walk the streets and fit in. Even the Hulk turns back into Banner. Thing isn't even a mutant he belongs in no cicle he will always be anoutsider. That is normally the recipe for a villian yet he chooses to be a good guy.
Those are Perfect Heros they do it simply because it is the right thing even though they all the reasons not to.

No such thing as a perfect hero because it is the flaws that make people like the heroes, and a "perfect" hero wouldn't sell or exist, because nothing is perfect.

newjack you made very good points

I would say Spider-man is a hero most people can relate to because he is an imperfect hero. He (like everyone else) fails now and again, then he beats himself up about it. He is one of the nice guys who suffers even though he doesnt deserve it.............

GL's yellow weakness has been gone for years.

Way too many flaws; not exactly sane, has to worry about the Void while keeping his powers, etc...

I would personally say Silver Surfer, but don't hold me to that.

Majestic is one. Has no easily exploitable weaknesses like Superman, has had millenia of battle experience, is a little haughty but it's never a hindrance in battle.

Black Bolt comes to mind. Karnak once looked at him and saw that he had no flaws. It kinda creeped him out, too, since he though EVERYTHING had a flaw/weakness.

I agree with people who say Thor, too.

Of course, at least two, and maybe all three of the people I just mentioned, are all at Herald level, so maybe that disqualifies them.

If there is such thing as a perfect hero with no weaknesses, they've probably already been and gone. Nobody likes perfection.

Superman was perfect in many ways, but because he was the original superhero, he gets success.

The likes of Spiderman and Batman needed something "else" to make them appealing - flaws.

Sersi's a good hero. She has class 20 strength as an eternal which she can amplify both through psionic means and through cosmic means. She can fly at mach speeds, she has enhanced reflexes, she can draw on cosmic energy, she has telekinesis, she has limited telepathic abilities and she is a high level matter manipulator. Plus as an eternal she is virtually immortal and it would take the disintegration of a vast amount of her bodies molecules for her to die.

the perfect powerless hero is Batman by far

perfect flying Superhero proberly Superman or Martain Manhunter cuz they got alot of range of powers and abilities and experience.

perfect bug based hero Spiderman...he's considered the every day hero

perfect flying hero Hawk...he got a lot a experience and skill (leads or use to lead JSA

batman's mentality in thor's body would be the ultimate hero

The Best hero ever I would have to say is the weird because he did take down the entire Justice League singlehandedly , he's smart, has mad fighting skills, and could kick anybodies ass

No such thing as a perfect hero

Surfer in my definition is the closest.
