If money were no problem, it would be Bats and I'm not even a DC guy.

 

If money was a barrier, it would be a short run character like Skull the Slayer so I could complete it.

The Skull comic was cool, but you can do better. :baiting:

 

I'm not a risk taker lol

If I were to be restricted to a single character, it would have to be one that has many very long runs of consistently excellent storylines coupled with excellent art, and so I pick Daredevil.

Like others, it has change over time.

When I was young 8-18 my father had lots of funny animal comics in his barbershop so I enjoyed a lot of Tom and Jerry, my name being Jerry.

When I joined the Navy and had disposable income I switched to Green Lantern cause of his name (once again) - Hal Jordan - Jordan being one of my grandparents name, so I imagined being related. :-)

Currently my favorite would have to be Batman and all his various cohorts.

Easy for me.

 

Jean Grey.

 

As a very young child, I was given UK X-Men reprints to read. As a teen, I got into comics properly and re-acquainted myself with X-Men just as Inferno was kicking off.

Back in those days we didn't have inter-webs and there were only a handful of TPBs and GN's. Back issue hunting was a whole different sport.

 

Plus red-heads are hot.

 

For those finding it difficult to chose a single character, just pick Wolverine or Batman. That way, you could still collect 95% of all books published since the 70's (thumbs u

Probably Superman for all the Curt Swan art-he's in multiple titles so I'd get my money's worth

Second choice Kirby FF or Thor

For me probably Wolverine. I have many of the keys, and I already have a big Uncanny Run.

2nd choice would be X-Men generally.

3rd choice if the first two weren't on the draft board probably Batman, but I reserve the right to trade-in my late round pick.
