1. Superman (Clark Kent) 2. Batman (Bruce Wayne) 3. Wonder Woman (Diana Prince) These three are pretty much the models for all the others 4. Wildcat (Ted Grant) 5. Lex Luthor The quintessential mad scientist 6. The Joker A near perfect personification of toal chaos 7. Lois Lane The first and the best of the super-girlfriends 8. Black Canary (Dinah Lance) 9. Robin (Dick Grayson) The first and best side-kick 10. Plastic Man (Eel O’Brien) 11. Zatanna 12. Alfred Pennyworth Everything a supporting cast member should be 13. The Question (Vic Sage) A great visual, and the most succesful of the super-heroes based on a philosophical viewpoint 14. Doctor Fate (Kent Nelson) 15. Johnny Thunder 16. Krypto the Superdog He's a dog. With Superman's powers. How do you not recognize the genius of that? 17. Detective Chimp 18. The Phantom Stranger 19. Dream of the Endless 20. Animal Man (Buddy Baker) 21. Swamp Thing (Alec Holland) 22. The Creeper (Jack Ryder) 23. Mr. Terrific (Terry Sloane) 24. Oracle (Barbara Gordon) 25. Supergirl (Kara Zor-El) She strengthens the concept of Superman, I don't care what anyone else says 26. Martian Manhunter (J’onn J’onzz) 27. Cheetah (Priscilla Rich) 28. Captain Carrot (Roger Rabbit) 29. Green Arrow (Oliver Queen) 30. Deadman (Boston Brand) He's a super-hero. And he's dead. How do you not recognize the genius of that? 31. Penguin (Oswald Cobblepot) 32. Two-Face (Harvey Dent) 33. Mr. Mxyzptlk 34. Amanda Waller A fantastically human and plausible nemesis 35. Ambush Bug (Irwin Schwab) 36. The Spectre (Jim Corrigan) 37. Klarion the Witch-Boy Always a great visual, transformed into something nigh-sublime after Grant Morrison's revamp 38. Jonah Hex 39. Cinnamon 40. Hawkman (Katar Hol) 41. Metamorpho (Rex Mason) 42. Adam Strange A thinking super-hero is still a novelty 43. Mister Miracle (Scott Free) 44. Doctor Psycho 45. The Flash (Jay Garrick) 46. The Red Bee (Rick Raleigh) 47. The Black Orchid Another great visual, and the fact that her secret ID was never really revealed (outside of Gaiman's mini...) adds to her appeal 48. Blue Beetle (Ted Kord) 49. The Atom (Ray Palmer) 50. Darkseid The only "cosmic" villain worth talking about
Almost Made the Cut:
51. Robot Man (Cliff Steele) 52. Green Lantern (G’Nort) 53. Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) 54. The Warlord (Travis Morgan) 55. Sgt. Rock 56. The Metal Men et al 57. The Inferior Five et al 58. The Thorn (Rose Forrest) 59. The Demon (Jason Blood) 60. Blue Devil (Dan Cassidy)
Edit: Gah. I can't believe I forgot Catwoman and Aquaman. The greatest comics femme fatale should be up there at around 19.5, and Aquaman at about 39.5.
