Most Overrated Comic Book Superheroes and Supervillains

First off, Batman is not a superhero, just a hero with lots of money and gadgets. Yes, he's a skilled martial artist, but it can only help him so much against someone who can fly and shoot lasers out of their eyes.

Second, Batman can defeat anyone as long as he has prep time. That could take weeks or even months, but if he's caught off guard by some random guy with a gun, he's done.

Third, he can do anything simply because he's Batman. How is Batman lifting that I-beam with one hand? Because he's Batman. How is he defeating everybody in the Justice League at once? Because he's Batman. How can he do any impossible feat or task? All because he's Batman.

I have difficulty watching an invincible character fight against those he is more powerful than. I often root against Superman because he is so overpowered, and his opponents are the ones who are creative and smart. He really is the anti-Batman: given all the physical tools, but gets outsmarted and outmaneuvered by his enemies.

Superman can be cool, as long as he doesn't get any more overpowered. I am a Superman fan, but even I know he is overrated thanks to his overpowered abilities. He is an iconic hero, on the other hand.

Note: Superman got shot with a kryptonite bullet by Metallo. (Superman/Batman: Public Enemies)

She is literally almost only on Arrow. Wow. Y'all hate Olicity THAT much?

As a side character popping up every now and then, he was fun. Now he is a bit overdone. Not to mention, his humor is so overplayed that it takes away tension. His success often comes from making other good characters look like fools, which is not cool (Taskmaster). Being essentially the voice of the fans is a problem as they, quite frankly, make for lousy stories.

What's to like about him? He's pansexual? He breaks the 4th wall? He makes smart-ass comments and sexual remarks? Or the fact that he's an overpowered Deathstroke rip-off? The movie was overrated by far, although Ryan Reynolds did a great job. People saying it's the perfect movie - really? This is the perfect movie? Who are you kidding? The only reason it did so well was because all the die-hard geeks and nerds spent all their time and money watching it over and over again in the cinemas. Next minute, no money for the next issue.

I think she's fine. One of DC's titans (not Teen Titans, I mean like the pillars of DC) and the only one I respect. But her weakness is weird.

The number of fans who prefer her to the Joker and who say that she'd win against many characters is ridiculous! I don't understand how they tend to forget that the Joker is the reason why she exists. He transformed his psychiatrist into Harley Quinn, the Joker himself!

Her fanbase is the worst! And she's the most oversexualized character I've ever seen!

So overrated! Does nothing compared to Deadpool.

Actually, he could have easily swatted World War Hulk away. Did you not see how easily he got back up after being hit so many times?

I don't know about you, but personally, I'm just extremely tired of this character. He's constantly being considered overpowered. Sure, he's relatable, but that makes him boring. The last thing I want to read about is a regular guy with regular guy problems who has all this stupidly overpowered ability. I do like his older versions, though.

He is a good character but widely considered one of the best characters Marvel has to offer. He isn't.

I could throw a sword at his web, and he would die.

He is almost always the first superhero brought up when someone talks about Marvel comics. It is so frustrating how everyone gushes over him when he appears in every X-Men movie. He is used so often that we barely get a chance to see other characters develop. As cool as he is, some of us would want to see other heroes step up.

It seems Wolverine is so overrated. I would put him above Batman on this list.

Yeah, she's hot and epic, but she's used too much. Everyone is too supportive of her, and the DC media never gives her a good origin story.

I just prefer Talia al Ghul for Batman over Selina. Plus, some of her depictions are so annoying.

He is lame and is only a hero because of his stupid science experiment. He 100% loses to Batman. If you disagree, go to Death Battle: Batman vs. Cap, dummy.

Says not to do drugs. Gets his powers through drugs.

The U.S. deserves better than this guy.

I mean, he's great, but when compared to other more creative villains, he's a touch too simplistic. If he wasn't in some great stories, everyone would've forgotten about the Clown Prince of Crime.

Great villain but just as overexposed as his nemesis. He works for street-level conflicts, but some think he's the greatest villain ever, and I just don't believe that.

Gonna piss off a lot of fanboys, but the Joker is not the greatest villain ever.
