I like him cuz i'm frankly tired of these uber top tier guys and gals who seem to be afraid of their own power.
He throws down, and with gusto.
Honestly though.
Bill is cool, but i like him for being the gateway to Stardust.
Now there's a guy i wanna read about speeding the cosmos.
B.T.W. I think Stardust is a 'GAL' ... but I disagree.
I can think of a million things id rather do than read about another Cosmic character, on an never ending quest to teach us 'mere mortals', the sanctity of life. An what better way to do it, than by Shooting colourful rays of light from their hands and eyes, or giving 'Awe Inspiring' speeches. BORING !!!!!!!!
Another thing, why the hell do these 'cosmics' have to talk like Shakespearian actors? Is the King James Bible the official language of the Marvelverse or something ?
If you want to read cool 'Out there' Cosmic stuff read Planetary, the Invisible or the Authority. I'd even try Morison's run on the JLA. Now that is cosmic stuff that is interesting.

AND I would like a canon-company crossover where Silver Surfer simply sucks the solar energy right out of Superman, where he then kills him with a flick of a finger, then he takes Lois as his newest conquest, impregnates her with the power cosmic, and she gives birth to ten more herald-level beings who take over the DC Universe.

Doomsday. And I would kill him by having him subjected to hours and hours of criticism from a troll who didn't know what he was talking about, until his head exploded.
A new villain I quite like is Ord. So I'd have him beat colossus to death, which wouldn't take long as colossus would be powerless. Thats right no chance to defend himself.
IMO Beta Ray Bill is the symbol for crap unoriginal writing. I mean what the **** was his creator thinking.
*Writer* 'Shit i can't think of any ideas'
*Village Idiot* 'Why don't you give some other guy the power of Thor, U could then have him fight Thor, '
*Writer* 'I dunno the whole Clone thing has been done a lot .... Although i could change his 1 dimensional personality and revamp the whole idea of the Thor mythos, eventually replacing the original Thor with a far superior character'
*Village Idiot* 'Nah **** that, ... just make him an over sized Donkey with an 'Attitude'
The question is ..... How do u and everyone else on this forum actually like Beta Ray Bill ? Is it because he blew up a planet or something ?
That was a great post, I totally agree, BRB is one of the worst characters every created. I wanted to puke the first time I saw him. He is a donkey with a humanoid body, what could anyone possibly like about that.
I forgot, I would like to see Beta R.BIll killed by someone as simple as the Punisher, Loki gives the punisher a special demon knife and the punisher calmly walks up says hello then stabs him in the throat with it.
I'm not a big fan of Griffin, although i quite like his Thanos stuff, especially the first arc. The second once again devolved into you're traditional energy blast fest, that i find Tedious.
Totally agreed .... although I'm giving Brusiek a go, i haven't read it but I've heard Up Up and away was pretty good. I also think All star supes is great, but most Superman stuff is crap.
Whatever floats you're boat, but i don't think there are many who can match Morison when it comes to Cosmic stuff, with the exception of maybe Geoff Johns and Warren Ellis.
