Top Superheroes. This list is as good as any..

#25
Namor

Half-human and half-atlantean, Namor the sub-mariner was one of the earliest superheroes in the Marvel universe. The stereotypical antihero, his short fuse and long list of superpowers would make him a formidable foe.
-------------------------------------------
#24
Captain Marvel
Whenever he utters the phrase “shazam”, young Billy Batson becomes one of the universe’s most versatile superheroes. His list of powers include the wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Mercury. Known as “Earth’s mightiest mortal” Captain Marvel is a force to be reckoned with.
----------------------
# 23
Firestorm
Unlike other superheroes Firestorm is actually two people that when combined create a superbeing with the ability to rearrange matter on the molecular level. If it weren’t for the fact that he were limited to non-organic material he would probably be a lot closer to #1.
---------------
# 22
Iron Man

Although Iron Man has had his weak moments, his armor has proven itself worthy against the likes of Thor, Hulk, and other superheroes on this list. Also, given that he is constantly evolving we wouldn’t be surprised to see him continue crawling up the power charts.
----------------------
# 21
Aqua Man
Another Atlantean, Aquaman’s powers have at times been underestimated. Anyone that was born in a place capable of literally crushing even the most advanced of human technology is probably going to end up somewhere on this page.
-----------------
#20
Dr. Manhattan
When it comes to pure, raw, unadulterated power there are few people that come even close to the doctor. In fact, there is almost no defined limit to what he can do. The reason he is at #20 however, is due to his primary weakness (besides tachyons) – apathy. In spite of being able to annihilate essentially the entire universe he just doesn’t care enough about much of anything and would prefer to be left alone.
-------------------------------

#19
Phoenix

As one of the most powerful telepaths in the universe, Jean Grey sometimes has trouble keeping her nearly unlimited mental powers in check. Professor X was even forced to construct psychic shields in her mind as a child in order to prevent her from fully realizing her power until she was mature enough to handle it on her own.
----------------------
# 18
Captain Atom
Essentially a combination of Superman and the Silver Surfer, Captain Atom is sometimes seen as a second rate man-of-steel. His powers are formidable, however, with the ability to manipulate theoretically unlimited amounts of energy.
----------------
# 17
Wolverine
Although Wolverine doesn’t have any of the typical superhero powers, it’s the intangibles that put him on the list. What he lacks in raw power he makes up for with pure fury. And as we’ve seen with Dr. Manhattan, attitude is half the battle.
---------------

# 16
Mister Majestic
As one of the most powerful superheroes in the Wildstorm universe, Mister Majestic bears a deliberate resemblance to Superman. With essentially all of his powers we just couldn’t rank a copy above the man himself.
----------------------------------------
#15
Professor X

As the most powerful telepath in the Universe Professor X has not only been responsible for the training of many other powerful mutants, but for their protection as well.
-------------------
# 14
Wonder woman

Essentially a combination of Superman’s power and Batman’s fighting skills, the one think keeping Wonder Woman from ranking any higher is her lack of perfect invulnerability. Granted, she can certainly withstand more than her share of blunt force trauma, but a really sharp weapon could do some damage
-------------------------------
# 13
Spawn
Mercilessly executed by his own men, Al Simmons was once the government’s top soldier and most effective assassin. While in hell he made a deal with the Devil that would grant him the ability to do virtually anything that he wanted. The catch? His powers would eventually run out and drag him back to the pit from whence he came.
-------------------------------
# 12
Hulk

With nearly unlimited strength, rapid tissue regeneration powers, and inexhaustible stamina, fighting against the Hulk is just an all-around bad idea. The main reason he doesn’t rank any higher though is due to his lack of other superpowers. While he outranks almost everyone in strength, pure muscle can sometimes only take you so far.

-------------------

# 11

Martian Manhunter
Second only to Dr. Manhattan in terms of sheer ability, the Manhunter owns a laundry list of supermanish superpowers. It doesn’t stop there though. He also has 9 different senses, powerful telepathic skills, and the ability to regenerate himself.
------------------------

# 10
Th Green Lantern

In possession of the “most powerful weapon in the universe”, the power ring wielded by the green lantern grants him abilities that are seemingly limited only by his imagination. The only real downside is that like any other super cool gadget it has to be recharged, and usually when it’s needed most.
------------------------
# 9

Flash

By tapping into the Speed Force, Wally can run, think, and act faster than light itself. And as impressive as that is, it doesn’t end there. He can also move through time, phase through matter, and even read/acquire knowledge at a hyper-accelerated rate.
----------------------
# 8

Black Bolt

As the king of a certain offshoot of humanity known as the “inhumans” the Black Bolt has been described even by other superheroes as one of the most powerful beings in the universe. Capable of some serious energy manipulation, the Bolt can use this power to increase any of his abilities to ridiculous levels. His greatest weapon, however, is his thunderous voice. Even a whisper has shown itself capable of shattering the Hulk’s bones and it has been said that a shout would destroy an entire planet.
----------------------
# 7
Franklin Richards
The son of Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Woman, Franklin has long been considered the most powerful earth-bound mutant in the Marvel universe when it comes to unrealized potential. He can only move up from here.
-------------------------
# 6

Dr Strange
Considered the “Sorcerer Supreme” Dr. Strange’s power’s rank right up there with Dr. Manhattan. The only thing that could hold him back is the fact that he’s a normal human playing with magic.
------------

# 5

Sentry

A enigma of sorts, Sentry is so powerful that even he surprises himself with his own abilities at times. His primary weakness, however, is his fragile mind. Although he once wiped his own existence from the memory of every person and superhero in the universe, his personal mental issues are his downfall.
-----------------
# 4
Silver Surfer
With this guy, the question is more of what can he not do than what he can. As a result of his ability to tap into the “power cosmic” he supposedly has access to a nearly unlimited amount of power. The only reason he doesn’t rank any higher is because of his inconsistency. Sometimes he seems to like he should be number one, two, and three while at other times we wonder if he should even be on this list. We just averaged the two.
----------------
# 3

Superman

With only one weakness the Man of Steel is not fun to fight against. Although he isn’t in the #1 spot on our list he easily could be, especially since no one is completely sure of just how powerful Superman really is (he’s always holding back). Regardless, as one of the most respected superheroes in the universe this Kryptonian is the real OG.
-------------------------
# 2

Goku


Although for years it was Superman that set the standard for massively over powered superheroes, ever since “super sayain” became a household word Goku found his way somewhere to the top of the really powerful superheroes list – albeit a somewhat non-standard superhero at that. But seriously, here we have a character essentially constructed on the assumption that there is no upper power limit whatsoever.
--------------------------------------------

# 1

Thor
The Norse God of Thunder, Thor is not only invincible in almost every sense of the word but he takes the meaning of “skilled warrior” to an entirely new level. Moreover, he has a hammer that gives him almost absolute control over space and time. In fact, this guy is so powerful that it could be a challenge to write a comic that involves him being in any believable amount of danger whatsoever.

What's the qualifier? I don't know anything about Goku, but I thought is was a cartoon and not a comic. Is it anime?

There is a Star Trek comic book and Q has appeared in it...

...just sayin'.

If that's a list based on power levels, Dr Manhatten is criminally underrated and Wolverine criminally overrated. This guy put waaaay too much stock in "attitude".

Yeah i agree this is just one mans list.. Wolverine is way over rated.. And Goku has been popping up on list over the last five years-ish.. My son says he has mad power though!!! But I asked him that a few years ago when he was younger.. I mean Yodi Is powerful right ? and He is in comics also..

Goku vs. Superman has been argued about quite a bit:

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/goku-vs-superman

and I agree Dr. Manhattan isn't getting a fair shake in that list. I don't know Goku, but I don't see how Superman could even fight Dr. Manhattan. There's no way to hurt Dr. Manhattan and he could assemble Kryptonite out of thin air.

Deadpool is/was never a villain. He was always an anti-hero, like the Punisher, Spawn, and The Hulk.

Okay, thanks.

Maybe he is so low because he just doesn't give a shit.. At least that is what i get from the list above. I always Though Silver Surfer and Thor should be top five for sure.. I remember a few years back the Hulk was top ten be he is falling in recent years. I was always a huge Captain Marvel fan also..

Top 50 Strongest Marvel Characters
1. Apocalypse
Stronger than Hulk (this is true. look Apocalypse up on marvel.com), various psionic powers (telepathy, telekinesis). near unlimited shape-shifting, near indestructible exoskeleton and many other powers. He is one of the arch enemies of the X-men and regularly has fought their entire roster. Apocalypse deserves to be in the top 100.

2. Thor
The God of Thunder. Thor possesses class 100 strength to such a degree that he has crushed entire planets with his sheer physical strength. He has magical weather control, meaning he can cause weather effects even with the absence of an atmosphere, interstellar flight, immortality, a magical hammer, space portals, and blasts strong enough to destroy a planet many time over. He also has many other magical powers besides including matter transmutation, and energy barriers . Thor is easily one of the strongest marvel characters and has battled the likes of the Silver Surfer, Hulk, and Thanos.

3. Galactus
One of the strongest in the universe. Eats entire planets, possesses vast knowledge, unlimited cosmic power, and gave beings as strong as the Silver Surfer their power and is still in an entire different power league. Probably the strongest marvel character after the likes of The Living Tribunal, Eternity, and The one above all.


4. Silver Surfer
Stronger than Hulk, warp speed flight and teleportation, immune to disease, temperature extremes etc. , matter manipulation and animation, element transmutation, planet destroying energy blasts and many other powers. Enough said!


5. Beyonder
A near omnipotent and vastly powerful mutant inhuman. He is the most powerful being in the Marvel multiverse second alone to The One Above All. He was so strong, that all the Marvel abstracts (such as Eternity, Infinity and Death), supreme cosmic beings (such as Galactus and the Stranger), and The Living Tribunal himself were left at his mercy.


6. Ghost Rider
The ghost rider wields great power. he can project hellfire in limitless amounts which can cause massive explosions. He can also control this fire to either burn matter and flesh, or to burn the soul or to do both. Arguably his most powerful ability is his penance stare which makes the victim feel all the pain they ever inflicted. He also has supernatural strength able to lift 25 tons. He also possesses a mystical bike which can travel at nearly the speed of sound. It can also run on walls and over water. He is definitely one of the strongest beings on earth.


7. Kronos
Vast intellect, time manipulation, soul manipulation and other powers. Kronos has become one with the universe.


8. Master Order
The counterpart of lord chaos. Possesses similar abilities.

9. Destroyer
The Destroyer has had many experiences, being the instrument of Odin, the arch-enemy of Thor,and the Herald of Galactus. His most formidable power is his incredible durability. His exoskeleton is more durable than adumantium and even the magic metal uru. His physical strength is greater than Thor's and he is capable of projecting powerful energy beams.

10. Captain Marvel
Captain Marvel has superhuman strength, cosmic energy projection, flight, and semi-omniscience allowing him to defeat beings sometimes far stronger than himself.

11. Master Hate
Master Hate, the embodiment of hate and the counterpart of Mistress Love. His powers are equal and opposite to hers.


12. Impossible Man
The Impossible Man is an alien with great shape-shifting abilities though not on the level of the Magus, he is still very powerful and proficient. He can take the form of a star ship and move faster than the speed of light, he can increase his size and mass to dramatically increase his strength, he can turn into a hose and spray water etc. His possibilities are virtually limitless. He was described by Galactus to be as dangerous as the Phoenix however this may have been an overstatement.


13. Magus
The Magus's power is comparable to that of Galactus. His main power is unlimited shape shifting. He can become virtually any substance, any size (larger than suns), any shape, and any color. He can turn into things such as starships, cannons, etc. Potentially he could make himself into a massive cannon the size of a planet and destroy anything in space. His possibilities are limitless. He also possesses extremely powerful telepathy and can learn things such as languages in an instant.

14. Mistress Love
The embodiment of love. Her exact powers are still unknown however, they are known to be immense.

15. Infinity
The embodiment of space and sister to Eternity. Her power is equal to his.

16. Morg
A herald of Galactus. Supposedly stronger than any other herald, even the Silver Surfer. His loyalty to Galactus was without question and he literally died in order to save his master.


17. Franklin Richards
One of the rare omega level mutants, He has the ability to warp reality on a much more massive scale than Proteus. Though in his child form he never could completely control his immeasurable powers, however it is said that his power equals that of the Celestials. He i quite possibly the strongest mutant to ever exist.


18. Lord Chaos
Not much is known of his powers other than he is the embodiment of chaos. He can teleport great distances and has no tangible,physical form.


19. Ego
An actual living planet that has complete control of his biosphere. he can cause effects such as volcanoes, tornadoes, earthquakes, etc. . He can alter the climate environment and even create living beings out of his own essence, however, they are not individually sentient. They are controlled by Ego.

20. Phoenix Force

22. Gladiator

In more recent ties, The Majestrix Lilandra (Empress of the whole Shi'ar empire)was killed and Gladiator himself was chosen to become the new Majestor.

23. In-Betweener
The servant of Master Order and Lord Chaos. possesses great power yet his use of it was disappointing to his masters and was imprisoned by them.

24. Stranger
Known to be one of the strongest in the universe the strangers power is equaled by very few and surpassed by even fewer (such as Galactus).

25. Runner
Unfortunately, not a lot of people know about the Runner but should. He is considered the fastest character in the marvel universe far outclassing any other speed demon. Another thing is that he is absolutely immortal and cannot be killed by any means. He can project energy in far greater amounts than the Silver Surfer and can easily shrug off his blasts. He is also over 5 billion years old. He also can control the emotions of others


26. Watcher
The watchers are a race of untold knowledge and power. They have a power level around that of Galactus and possess even greater knowledge.

29. Onslaught
Onslaught is a being of immense power with the combined powers of Professor X (earth's strongest telepath) and Magneto (the master of magnetism) in addition to this he also has class 100 strength.

30. Living Tribunal
The living tribunal is considered the second strongest being in the marvel universe second only to the one above all (and later on, The Beyonder). He is so powerful that even Thanos with the infinity gauntlet making him stronger than the entire marvel universe combined did not dare to engage The Living Tribunal in combat. The living tribunal is the supreme authority in the marvel universe save The One Above All. His power is absolutely limitless


31. Eternity
The very embodiment of time. Eternity can manipulate space, time, and reality itself as he wishes. His power is greater even than the likes of Galactus.

Size transformations, energy manipulation, enchantments, class 100 strength, etc. He can also gain power through souls submitting to his will thus becoming his slaves.

35. Celestials
The celestials are a group of extremely powerful beings considered to be in Galactus's league and even stronger than Odin.

36. Odin

He can manipulate magic for a variety of effects including strength augmentation,size augmentation, various magical enchantments, fire energy blasts, and others. He also, as the monarch of Asgard, can absorb the powers of all the Asgardians into himself to greatly augment his already formidable powers. Odin is immortal and thus cannot die die by any natural means. His regular strength level is around 60 tons.


37. Juggernaut
The unstoppable Juggernaut is one of the mightiest characters in the marvel universe. since absorbing the powers of cyttorak he has had untold mystical power. among these are his possibly unlimited physical strength (which some say rival the Hulk's) and his invulnerability. Another notable power is his unstopability. Once he starts moving in a direction no force on earth can stop him. The Juggernaut once also possessed the ability to form an indestructible force field around himself

38. Hulk
Hulk is a Big green powerhouse. He is physically one of the strongest of all marvel characters going far beyond even class 100 strength (strong enough to press 100 tons). He once destroyed a meteorite the size of earth in a single blow indicating that possibly, he could lift billions of tons.

DC top 25.
http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/11/19/the-top-25-heroes-of-dc-comics

Saw Deadpool as well, a decent rip of it online. Deadpool himself was great, even the main story was good, both were hilarious, laughed almost as much as I did the first time I saw Dumb and Dumber. But....the add-on superheros were fucking lame. They had a super awesome movie on their hands and dicked it up by trying to squeeze a couple extra X-Men in to the script, and did it poorly.

Still a good movie, just could have been so much better.

Thumb said:

I don't think he will have a cameo, because this is a 20th/FOX film and not Marvel Studios. It's actually an X-Men sequel, which is my biggest worry....that they are going to try to tie it in to those films rather than just do a solid one-of movie.

Wrong on the first part, and (sadly) right on about the second.
