I've seen a couple forums where people talk about who the biggest jerk is, but who is the coolest? To clarify, I'm not asking who you think is the most powerful, who would win in a fight, or even what is the coolest idea for a character. I'm asking: if you could hang out with a character in comics when they weren't fighting crime, who would be the most interesting? What would you do to hang out?
Note: this is not a "who would you date/hook up with" thread. if you happen to pick someone you would also want to date/hook up with, keep it clean please :-)
I tried searching for this before creating it, but if it's already been done, can someone link me to it?
What character would you hang out with?
Batman is my favorite character, but he's notorious for being a grinch at social gatherings. I feel like any time Batman tries to have fun, he just thinks about 700 other things he'd rather be doing (like fighting crime for instance). Superman is a little more laid back, but essentially has the same problem. He's always hearing some disaster with his super-hearing and flying away at a moment's notice. Also, hanging out with Superman seems like it would be a little intimidating. I'd be worried about trying to be on my absolute best behavior and not say anything stupid.
Here are a couple choices that made more sense to me:
Blue Beetle and Booster Gold from their Justice League International days. These are two guys who never had a hard time amusing themselves...
hmm interesting question.. I definitely agree with your choices there. If I can respond with small teams, then I think the Birds of Prey (Oracle, Black Canary, Huntress and Zinda) seem liket hey would be a fun crowd to hang out with.
Other than them, I think Martian Manhunter would be f un, as long as he was in an unintimidating form... i like oreos a lot, so we'd have that to talk about. Beast Boy also seems like he'd be fun in the same silly way as booster and blue beetle.
here are a couple more I thought of:
Teen Titans
Wally West
Oliver Queen: Preferably at some kind of barbecue or cooking event
Runners up: Kyle Rayner, Plastic Man
The Silver Surfer! i could learn alot from him, plus he seems like a cool guy just to hang with period.

A nice game of cards and a few drinks with The Thing, Hellboy, Marv (Sin City), and maybe Nightcrawler. Yeah that sounds good enough.
