Watchmen. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *runs screaming from hail of tomatoes*I heard there were 3 people on the planet that didn't like Watchmen. I guess we are still searching for the other 2. |

I'm not a fan of Watchmen, either.

*gasp*
I only read a couple of issues, but I LOVED Firestorm.
I don't really have a character I find boring. I think most characters can be made interesting with the right writer and artist.

For boring, not quite rising to the I want their comics shoved down a memory hole level (Wolverine, Lobo, Green Arrow, Firestorm and Punisher)
THANOS: (subplot: Icctrombone said Adam Strange was the most boring character imaginable in the Adam Strange thread, I said Thanos was, he threw a fit and here we are.)
This third rate Darkseid ripoff has it all, except he can't ever really win. He comes up with plans to defeat himself in his moment of triumph. Why does he lose? Thanos bores Thanos! Not even the Super Hero Squad cartoon could raise my interest in the character. I assume he's the main villain of Avengers 3 & 4, so I'll be skipping those. He's the Jay Cutler of Marvel Super Villains.
Frankly, the rest of cosmic Marvel's ultrapowerful superbeings not named Galactus or the Silver Surfer would make the list. So much power, so much pontificating. I can't believe some of these guys haven't been hired by corporate sibling ESPN. Please guys, SHUT THE HELL UP!
NEW GODS NOT NAMED DARKSEID OR MR. MIRACLE: They're currently sucking the life out of the New52 Green Lantern titles. Can't we just ship them over to Marvel where they belong?
I tend to like the heroes most people regard as boring these days, Silver Age whitebread that could hang out with me for a Coke after a round of golf. (Clark, Barry, Steve, Ray, Adam)

Back on topic, not a specific character but I find war comics really boring.

I felt it was disrespectful to firebomb a thread that celebrated Adam Strange , so I started a separate thread about characters that kinda suck. Action Ace stated that Thanos was boring ( which most of the comic reading population disagrees with) and he is intitled to his opinion, even though he's wrong. |

I've been tempted to try Kirby's Losers, because someone here (Rob Allen or Prince Hal, perhaps?) said they didn't care for war comics until they tried that series (perhaps at the suggestion of Cei-U!).

The exception is Combat Kelly which I got after The good write ups it got in a Classic Christmas a year ago.

I feel Watchmen is overrated, and I've gained some infamy for that opinion here, but even I feel it's a quality work. Though, technically, the question is who the most boring characters are. Let's be honest: Nightowl, the second Silk Spectre, and Dr. Manhattan are all pretty boring characters. I'm really not sure how someone could see The Comedian, Ozymandias, and Rorshach as boring though. |

I'm not a fan of Watchmen, either. Read it again. You can't be the second of the three people in the world who didn't like Watchmen. I mean...you just can't. Please, for the love of God, read it again and change your mind. |
