Worst Super Hero or Heroic Protagonist

[HijiriOni]

Tidus is horrible. SE keeps making terrible characters like him too.

I honestly can't say Superman is a bad comic, I can however say that all the parts involving him actually be superman aren't great. The good stuff comes from the more philosophical parts. The whole "If you have all the powers of the gods what would you do, how would you live, how would people see you"

I'm sure if Frank Miller wrote a superman comic it'd be one of the best damned comics in the whole superman series.

How about Mario? You start of in Galaxy 2 by killing an infant...
Our protagonist, ladies and gentlemen!

What the fu-

Don't tell me they tried to apply the dark second act model to Mario? xD

I'd have to say Jack Slate from Dead to Rights: Retribution. He spends the entire last half of the game preaching the "Don't kill all the suspects, arrest and interrogate" thing, then winds up murdering the next 200 guys that pass his way. And after he kills the final boss he then looks at his hands in grief as if that's his first murder. It all makes me laugh AND hate the game for it.

Not really, just the regular, old Mario we're supposed to love. He flies around the galaxy and kills off babies, the old and the handicapped simply because they belong to the same races that used to walk into him (or him into them) about 20-30 years ago.

Our protagonist ladies and gentlemen!

I've seen lots of threads recently about the worst villain or best hero, but I'm here to ask, "Who is the worst hero?"

I say Heroic Protagonist because a protagonist does not mean "hero" Just look at Light Yagami.

Personally, I'd say Ant Man or any hero who's only ability is to either grow or shrink. Seriously, how far can that get you when fighting crime?

one could argue that Light (raito, i think) is a hero. he's cleansing the earth of criminals.
he's just a bit mad from power. just a bit...xD

Well hopefully they get revenge and murder him in the next one so they can't make any more games about him.

It's unnatural to hate a character as much as I hate him.

Uh-huh. You have your opinion, I have mine.

Yes, and if your opinion was based on, say, things Captain America actually says and does in the actual comics, instead of your kneejerk reaction to his name, maybe your opinion would be worth a shit.
