Favourite Hero and Villain from DC/Marvel anyone? :P
Batman and Spider-Man have always been my faves. My first comic I ever got was an issue of
Marvel Team-Up featuring Spider-Man and Mr Fantastic. But, I believe my first exposure to Spidey was on the original Electric Company show on PBS.
Today I actually prefer the Ultimate Spider-man comic series over the 616 version.
My first exposure to Batman was an old Saturday morning cartoon (The New Adventures of Batman) and the Superfriends.
As a kid Wonder Woman and Hulk were also faves. Yes, I'm old enough to have watched both TV series when they first came on.
Villain-wise I have to go with the Joker and Green Goblin with Two-Face, Catwoman and Magneto coming in close behind.
The Killing Joke, Death in the Family, The Dark Knight Returns and, of course, Batman the Animated Series really turned me on to the Joker.
The Child Within and Lifetheft are two great stories involving the Green Goblin.
A Lonely Place of Dying is a great Batman versus Two-Face story that also introduced Tim Drake. Again, Batman:TAS with Richard Moll voicing 'Big Bad Harv' is classic.
Julie Newmar and Michelle Pfeiffer made awesome Catwomen.
X-Men vs the Avengers (1987) and the Claremont/Jim Lee last few stories involving Magneto before both creators left Marvel are good reads. Though I'm not a huge fan of the movies, Ian McKellen makes an awesome Magneto.
