To be a great character you actually need to have... oh I dunno... some semblance of character at all.
OMG he beat person... OMG he did this feat... does not a character make. Apocalypse is in the strange predicament of not actually having done anything to garner this type of attention and yet still attracting bizarrely fervent followers.

How is Apocalyse full of fail when he has ruled over the earth and been worshipped as god? How is he fail if Cable himself said that Apocalypse destroys the Avengers in the near future?Apoc is a greeaat character. Definately better than the overrated ones like Superman or Silver Surfer. Thor and Marvel are alright.
Thor took over earth and was worshipped as a god because he is one and not some deluded mutant who thinks he is. 🙂

That reality was destroyed when Thor went back in time and warned his younger self to not take over Midgard. As far as we are concerned, that never happened. Like Beyonder ne'er happened because he was retconned.

For one thing his character inspired superhero comics in their modern form (I'm not talking about newspaper comics) and no Superman would mean no Apocalypse.
That's not character. Superman is a crappy character just like Son G..u from dragon....
Sure they did inspire alot of other characters, but they have no depth to them. Apocalypse on the other hand was born as a slave to Ozumandias. He actually worked to get to where he is now unlike Superman who just got his powers.
Apocalypse is the second most famous x-men villain and damn near everyone from Loki to High Evo to Avengers to Fantastic Four know who he is and what he does.

Superman had to spend a lifetime mastering his powers. 😬
He was born with his powers just like a mutant is born with the mutant gene and OH WAIT.

And how is that comparable to what Apoc has been through? He took the time to study the celestial tech provided to him for centuries. He worked for his powers unlike Superman. I mean Superman is pretty much perfect.

That's not exactly saying much. Who exactly are the X-men's main villains besides Apocalypse? Magneto, Master Mold, and umm......Sentinels?

See: Two Girls One Cup or Paris Hilton.
Besides I can name X-Men villains more well-known, like Mystique and the Dark Phoenix.

lol @ Apoc realizing he's destined to lose.
Originally posted by xmarksthespotkinda, it shows the superiority complex he has cause he's obsessed with his ideologies, he's not evil cause it's fun, he just shows total disregard for beings he views as chess pieces.
Lol. I hope that wasn't actually supposed to support Apocalypse being a good character.
apocalypse is a twisted view on moses imo, instead of the whole god's envoy thing, he took things into his own hands and used his abilities to f up the timeline

Superman trying to control his powers so he doesn't crush people when he hugs them or shake their hands isn't "working for it?"
And Superman isn't perfect. Anyone who reads Superman, whether they like him or not, knows he's not. He has plenty of flaws and weaknesses.
