Marvel wants to know...

Which Marvel heroes have inspired you?

Link: Which Marvel heroes have inspired you?

Spiderman....I was a shy inward kid. I identified with Peter parker...then when the mask went on and he became Spiderman he let loose....I actually learned the word sarcastic from Spiderman so when i hear the word I associate it with him....lol

[Operation:Mego]

Captain America. I think Chris Evans said it best: "He's good for the sake of good." That's how I try to act.

Spidey and Cap are really the only Marvel characters that held anything close to being described as inspiration to me. Maybe Scott Summers until Claremont left the book, and Daredevil pre-Miller's darkening of the character. The rest are too compromised to merit inspiration. But, those foibles, flaws and struggles do make for more interesting reading.

DC has also dragged most of their heroes through the muck the last two and half decades to where there's not a lot of inspiration there either.

Probably Daredevil & Nightcrawler.

Growing up, both my parents worked full time to support us, and stacks of Marvel comics were my babysitter, and I know I'm better for it.

Spider-Man taught me about responsibility.
Captain America taught me about courage.
Thor taught me about being noble.
Iron Man taught me about perseverance.
Daredevil taught me about overcoming adversity.
Hulk taught me to control my anger.
Fantastic Four taught me the importance of teamwork.
X-Men taught me to be tolerant of those who are different.

Nicely put.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Cap taught me about duty. To your country, to your fellow man, to your world. And good manners! I love that the movies have brought this across.

Spider-Man taught me things would get rough. But even when things look bleak, never give up.

[The Toyroom]

I don't think I've ever been inspired by any particular hero. Truth, Justice and the American Way only gets you so far...

I did learn about centrifugal force from The Flash though

[boynightwing]

I identified with Spider-man because I was also the nerdy kid who was picked on.

Then later it was Wolverine because he's Canadian like me and he showed me I didn't have to put up with people's bs. I think I also learned a little bit about controlling the anger within. He was always struggling with it.

Most my heroes are DC though. I wanted to be Dick Grayson. Hang out with Batman but be the carefree happy one.

I like heroes like that... they can't always succeed, but its inspiring to see
them try. I'd say Superman is like that too... and like Cap, is an inspiration
for what a prototypical upstanding American should strive to be like.
