Very complete. A nice effort, excellent. Sadly, is still incomplete. You left out the High [link] , from Stormwatch (1st vol) series. Don't worry, is understandable: there is so much Superman wannabes...

Nicely done I like the fact you remembered Samaritan, Icon and Gladiator.

Love it, I'm glad to see it. They get over looked far too often even by their parent companies.

Ehm, maybe I'm going to say something stupid, but, wasn't Captain Marvel created before Superman ?

Superman was created before him; Captain Marvel was a copy of Superman. :)

Mmmh... question : to you, from where does a character become a copy of another ?
Reply
:iconolybear:
I think it depends on whether the character was created as an homage (or parody). If the creator/s acknowledge it, or if it's an obvious tribute, then I guess that's cool. And readers will easily know which is which, I suppose. :)

...but I think the important thing is there has to be something unique about the "copy." So it won't be accused of just being a blatant rip-off.
