Biggest Underachievers

Who are the biggest underachievers in comics...in other words, who in your opinion underutilizes the potential of their power to the greatest degree?

Every top tier

Batman and Nova

Yeah, Batman should put his powers to better use.

while I agree most top tiers underachieve according to their powerset...some do so much more aggregiously than others

Nightcrawler, Iceman, most of the X-Men in general.

Champion for first prize...its tragic. Actually im not sure if thats the same thing...thats more like jobbing.

Wolverine, Flash, and Dean Lister

wolverine? really?

Top tier energy manipulators in that case since the flying brick powerset is way easier to write.

Flash. Don't think there's much contest on that.

I agree

Iceman is a big underachiever in my book

The guy could do so much with his powers but he ends up being so average

J'onn, Flash, Pretty much every GL, most DC characters are either written so over powered they make them retarded or are so completely underpowered they make them gods in caparison to what they should be able to do.

As for Marvel, SS obviously, Sentry, Iceman, Dr. Strange

apocalypse and zoom

Green Lanterns need a certain amount of willpower to pull off the stuff that they do though. It's not like any plain GL can do the things Hal do.

Basically high end matter and energy manipulators like SS,Thor,etc
