Captain America has always been my favorite Super Hero of all time. I think my interest in his character really took off when Ed Brubaker started writing his series. The new Cap movie is based entirely on his story.

He was my favorite for a long time as well but Cable always seem to be next to him. I think i liked Cable more because he kind of like saves all the heroes from dying and he just looks like a badass but idk cap i grew up with so its hard to pick for me.

First I'll say that I have hardly read comics so my exposure comes from games, the cartoon from the 90's, and fansite/wiki browsing.

Gambit is my answer. Gambit is suave and dandy-like but has a heart and beat a kill-or-be-killed youth that, while it has an impact on him as a person, he seems to have beaten for the most part. I think his power is cool, it's not omega busted or a concept I find stupid like Franklin Richards or Scarlet Witch or the Hulk, and is a little more interesting than just having an elemental power (I like Iceman, but...) or super strength/speed.

As much as I shit on the Amazing Spider-Man movies, I'd have to say that Spider-Man is probably my favorite. I loved the original movies, and before that the animated series, and before that the original comics. My dad had a collection of small full color trade paperbacks which collected the first 25 issues, and I read through them one summer in the 90's.

Iron Man.

Many loves him now, but I love him long way back before Robert Downey Jr's movie came out when he's not that popular.
It's because of that Capcom's arcade game Marvel Super Heroes where he looked so damn cool with his supermoves, especially Proton Cannon.
I got curious of his character and tracked all his comic books since then.







Yeah, my love for him started from video game, just like my love for Michael Jackson started from SEGA's arcade game Moonwalker.

Spider-Man is probably every body's hero for who loved Marvel.
I don't think I ever heard someone's saying he hates Spider-Man.

No issue for liking Spider-man. Though I am still on the fence for Tom Holland.

Tom Holland version is more like Ultimate Universe version of Spider-Man, not from main universe.
With that in mind, I have no problem on how he is represented.
He does have a kinda similar best friend (Ned is kinda similar to Ganke) and Tony Stark / Iron Man as his mentor.
The difference is Ultimate Universe version of Spider-Man ended up dead (after more than 100 issues), replaced by Miles Morales.

There are pros and cons I feel over Tom Holland's Spider-man. Sure it's nice they mixed up the formula quite a bit but TOny Stark pretty much replaced Uncle Ben which I don't like much, but Spider-man is now sort of replacing Iron-man which I do sorta like, given I know in mainstream Peter Parker grows up and starts his own science and tech corporation.

I sitll think Tobey Maguire did a great job as Spider-man... up until his third movie. And I can imagine Andrew Garfield Spider-man in the same universe as Tom Hardy Venom.

Yeah, but his corporation has been dismantled (in order to keep his employees safe) during Secret Empire event.
Now he's back poor and easily depressed again.

Yes, they're now canonically in same universe thanks to No Way Home end credit scene.

I hope it's not the last we'll see of Sam Reimi's original Spider-man.

Raimi said it was “possible” for the Spider-Man 4 to happen : “I’ve come to realize after making Doctor Strange that anything is possible, really anything in the Marvel universe, any team-ups,”
But sadly that's up to Sony.
