2#He hasn't got the same kind of morals that hold Superman and Surfer back.
3#He doesn't has a gay split personality like Sentry.
4#He got the same fighting spirit as Ben Grim but he just doesn't suck at it.
5#You just got to give the man props for putting Ironman in his place in Thor 3# after Tony's been acting like a *sshole in Civil war.
In the majority of his appearances, rather than utilizing Mjolnir to the fullest extent, he uses it like a club to bash people.

Bah. It is like saying man losing a box match is a moron, because he didn't kick his opponent in the nuts.It is OK to follow warrior's code, sometimes.
Except a boxing match actually has rules, and it's done in a professional manner.
Horrible example.

You are wrong, and i am right.
'Warrior code' is the rules for battles. Obviously, warrior (as Thor understand) is something professional. Think samurai and bushido, for an example.

I'm trained in bushido arts as well. So I very much understand the code. But I'd happily get as dirty and dishonorable as possible if the situation called for it, or just to ensure success. In the modern world, the ninpo approach just has more practical applicability than jujutsu.
But you're right. Thor shouldn't be slighted for his lack of dirtiness. He doesn't have to worry about guns and knives and sh*t like us. So if he's powerful enough to fight honorably against any opponent, whether they're armed or not, and live, more power to him. Who cares if he loses? He'll just get better. First time he fought Rulk, Rulk had Thor-io's for breakfast. Second time they fought, Thor almost killed him in like a single page. Only stopped because Hulk wanted a piece as well.
Thor's done some dumb things before - who hasn't - but holding back and fighting honorably are not examples.
Everyone else belongs on this list. Except Thing, for he doesn't really have much to work with in the ways of power. So when he gets beat up, it's usually not his fault.
I know bringing this up six pages later is rather late and undoubtedly redundant, but "morron"? Oh, the irony.
I hope that was made intentionally to be purposefully ironic/funny.
Anyways, out of the list given, Supes comes off as pretty stupid, thanks to his popularity and thus, through no fault of his own. He's got to have a regular cast of villains he fights at least once a month or so.
With the number of villains he faces and the number of connections he has, along with the immense power he carries, you'd think he'd come up with a more effective/permanent way of putting all of those repeat offenders away or at least finishing his conflicts before they even start. Though, it would be a boring read, so again, it's through no fault of his own. I can make the same reasoning for Surfer or Thor, but Supes being the bigger character (having more mainstay villains), gets my vote.
Now, outside of this list, I say Supreme doesn't strike me as very bright. His general character would suggest he's not much of a thinker. Being very brash and overconfident, he just comes to mind. It's also just funny that he happens to be a Superman clone, but a dumbass for very different reasons.
