There are always those annoying pests which you just can't seem to get rid of. Superman has Mr Mxyzptlk. Batman has Bat-Mite. The Fantastic Four have The Impossible Man. Which one do you consider being the biggest annoyance around?
For me, I never much cared for Bat-Mite. The character doesn't quite fit into the Gothic world of the Darknight Detective. I can tolerate Mxyzptlk being a magical thorn in the butt for Supes (but geeeeez what an oddly designed little gnome he is) and I really enjoy the naive pestiness of the green Impy getting upon the nerves of one Benjamin Grimm. But Bat-Mite just does nothing for me. What about you all?

I think there needs to be an "All" button.

I like all three characters, so I don't find any of them annoying.
Cei-U! I summon the merry mischiefmakers!

I don’t think I ever read a story with Batmite. The other two are fun.

I don’t think I ever read a story with Batmite. The other two are fun. Pretty much sums up my response as well. At various times, but not uniformly, I've found Snapper Carr, Jimmy Olsen and Rick Jones more annoying than, say, Impy or Mxy.

Impossible Man. Bat-Mite may be annoying, but Impossible Man takes the cake. And yeah, sometimes them too.

Bat-Mite. For a superhero that was already in rapid creative freefall ay 1959, adding a silly character like Bat-Mite solidified the notion that Batman was just another "funny book", where ridiculous things just happened in stories just so pointless.

Impossible Man. Lord knows I love Silver Age Marvel, but Impossible Man both annoys and bores the hell out of me.
Mr. Mxyzptlk is mild by comparison and I don't think I've ever read a comic with Bat-Mite in it (and nor do I wish to).

If we're going for annoying omnipotent agents of chaos, my vote is a tie between Harley Quinn and Deadpool.

I voted for Impy but that's because I've read more of him. I've only read Byrne's Mxy and Morrison's re-defined Bat-Mite (though I remember hating Bat-Mite on the cartoons).

Nanotron. Oooooh, how I hated Nanotron.
«From now on, Nanotron fights back!»... No, don't bother. Just cease to exist, please!!!
