	any list with molly hayes deserves bonus points

	Any list with Jamie Madrox deserves double bonus points.

	The fact that Charles Xavier isn't on this list is disturbing

	I got a freebie. The clock didnt start so I had unlimited time, but I couldnt see the answers

	no elektra, bullseye or kingpin - not DD fans, apparently. and the xavier omission is terrible. as is randomly choosing iceman over angel (i think if it's 'last man out' choice, angel wins by virtue of the four horsemen storyline).

	rockgolf:	Jul 1st, 2010 at 05:43 GMT		5 points
	You should accept "Warlock" for Adam Warlock, since that was the name feature in two or three of his series.

	alpha:	Aug 20th, 2010 at 20:13 GMT		3 points
	um, what about professor x?

	Cornwad:	Aug 26th, 2010 at 07:35 GMT		4 points
	This is a terrible list.

	I enjoyed the quiz, but I'm very suprised at some of the placings (mainly, "How did Hawkeye get all the way up there?")

	Quislet:	Oct 18th, 2010 at 11:27 GMT		1 point
	I would say you should accept Kitty Pryde and Emma Frost as answers.

	hematite2:	Dec 4th, 2010 at 18:09 GMT		2 points
	this list is quite random. no angel, prof x, cable, apocalypse. where were the spidey villans?? venom, green goblin, sandman? and the x men villans, all i see are magneto and emma frost. what about sinister? also, luke cage isn't his real name, it's carl lucas, power man and luke cage are his 2 aliases, so you should accept both.

	What is this list based off of? Howard the Duck made the list? The goblin should belong on this list of all the Spider-Man villains. Dr Doom made the list for the FF and Magneto made it for the X-Men, therefore Spider-Man's main nemesis the Green Goblin should have made it.

	wildebeest:	Jun 26th, 2011 at 21:48 GMT		2 points
	WTF? Howard the Duck made it onto this list but Professor X, Mystique, Dr. Octopus and the Green Goblin somehow didn't?

	ChicagoRed:	Aug 26th, 2011 at 10:13 GMT		0 points
	I quit this list pretty quickly upon seeing Ultimate versions of characters made it. Newsflash: re-imaginings of characters = those characters. They're not separate characters, any more than the TV cartoon version of Batman was a different character than the comic book Batman. Also interesting that there are six characters (including a villain and a second-tier hero) ahead of the first X-Man, when X-books are like, more than half the company. Obviously people think the X-characters are greater than the Captain Americas. See also the 5 X-Men movies, the four or five cartoons, and so on. What is greatness? Daredevil's had one really iconic or classic storyline - ONE - and been a second-stringer, artistically and in-comic, almost his entire existence. He's made one appearance in another medium, and his movie was terrible and quickly forgotten and there may never be another. So, who is he great to? By what are we judging this greatness that is apparently intrinsic in the character, that it can remain great even as the character stars in terrible stories and is ignored by everyone?

	@ChicagoRed - The list is from CBR - voted on by fans. So, no. The list isn't going to be perfect. Comic Book Resources simply asks users/fans to rate their favorite characters - no more, no less. This list is from 2007 so the omission of some quality characters is probably due to the fact that in 2007 none of those characters were at the forefront of many stories. @caliban Since this is from 2007 this should probably be updated. There's a new list out now!

	it should be said that this is the top 50 list by opinion of the poster

	Daredevil didn't get invited to Secret Wars. Even the Beyonder thought he was lame.

	RBCurran:	Apr 6th, 2012 at 00:12 GMT		1 point
	Given Beyonder's jumpsuit and jheri curl combo, I'm not sure he had any business judging how cool anyone else was.

	psylockecable:	May 14th, 2012 at 18:39 GMT		2 points
	How are Professor X, Angel, Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, Ms. Marvel, Quicksilver, Aunt May, Sabretooth, Loki, Venom, Green Goblin, and Kingpin not on this list but Molly Hayes is?

	LakeFToy:	Jun 8th, 2012 at 01:58 GMT		1 point
	Quiz should accept Warlock for Adam Warlock...otherwise, no major complaints...fun quiz!
