My Most Annoying, Hated, and Can't Stand Superheroes ... Etc!
Is ... Drumroll Please is Booster Gold! I just can't stand him in the Justice League cartoon that came out in 2004 that drove me crazy because he annoyed me so much that I just wanted to mute the sounds of my television set because he's never stop talking about himself. If he teamed up with Ted Kord ...The Blue Beetle he's can be tolerated a bit and more understandable. His ability to annoy you that he's from the future and a bit famous ... can strike a nerve to you and all that can bother you a lot and get you rattled. That's why I just can't stand watching a Justice League Cartoons from 2004 to 2006. His constant reminder that he is from the future and that's alone kills me. He's thinks of himself as a "celebrity" and that's irks me and that's can make this Superhero that you can proudly can associate that you can "Hate the Most" ... anyway, which Superhero that you can't stand at all, hate, and think of anything associated with "Him" or "Her" that drives you "Batty" and all that. Please post pictures if you can ... that's would adds to the conversation here and thanks for participating in it.

I bought the first issue of Booster Gold for some reason, was it Dan Jurgens art maybe? I didn't like the character at all and I agree in disliking him in the cartoon at least as much. My most disliked character though has to be Lobo, and even had the Omega Men he first appeared in too, but he got more irritating later, and in the cartoons too, augh! I hate (hate hate hate) Lobo so much I don't want to post a picture of him... but there is one I can stand... this one...

Iron Man! How dull is this character? "No, don't tell me Tony. Your plan for defeating your current foe will involve you retreating to your lab, tweaking the widgets in your armour, and suddenly it will have the ability to beat them. You know, exactly the same thing you've done about a billion time before." "But while you're at it, make sure to tell me how brilliant you are. I may have forgotten in the five minutes since you last told me."

Yeah, I always used to think of him a sleazy predator type when it comes to his relations with the opposite sex, and as a callous, profit-seeking arms manufacturer in his professional life. And this is the hero? I'd hate to see the bad guy!

Gambit. Can't see the appeal. Have tried reading various stories, but his popularity baffles me. I don't think he's particularly fun to draw (I have tried that, too), and he's somewhere between dull and ordinary.

My Most Annoying, Hated, and Can't Stand Superheroes ... Etc My choices: most X-Men related characters with the exception of the original group, and a few rungs down the ladder, the 1975 version. Its the most overrated comic and group in the medium's history, with characters just as overblown.

It would have to be someone 90s, someone Liefeldian, and Shatterstar seems most 90s and Liefeldian of all. I could excuse an Axe Cop character designed by a five year old, but a grown man came up with this ridiculous ensemble of swords with two parallel blades, a buzz cut that somehow leaves enough hair to have both a six foot pony tail and a pair of pigtails, a glowing eye stolen from Longshot, wrestling headgear, an encumbering belt full of never-used pouches, and of course a violent streak that has nothing to do with the values of the X-Men. My only regret was that as a Marvel character, he couldn't appear in Kingdom Come to get his wrestling mask pummeled by Superman. When he died in Deadpool 2, I was so happy that I cried out, "Yes!"

Hal Jordan Let's give the ring to the most uptight un-imaginative, dull as dishwater character. Yeah, he's Paul Newman but man he is vapid as hell. Hal's a clear-cut Maverick archetype. He's got a problem with authority, rules, confines of any possible kind and he prefers to fly in blind than to actually think about stuff......and usually I enjoy characters like that. Han Solo, Kirk, etc. But with Hal......it often feels like he's just a huge idiot who can barely function as an adult. He doesn't strike me as a free spirit as much as someone trying to avoid being accountable for his own actions.

Never had any interest in Guy Gardner. No matter what iteration of "hero" they tried out on him he was just irritating to me.

Martian Manhunter, Guy Gardner, John Stewart, Harley Quinn, Lobo, Miss Martian, Rose Wilson, and Damien Wayne. Why Martian Manhunter? ... Care to share a simple explanation?

Another founding Avenger I disliked was the Wasp: her power is ... she's a spoiled rich brat? Never felt the charm of this character was presumably meant to possess. I understand they've tried to make her more impressive the last few decades but I stopped reading the Avengers in the late 70s so I missed all that and still see her as the annoyingly whimsical heiress who spends most of her time shopping for over-priced designer clothes.
