Oh by "the ending" I thought you meant the whole "Bruce is actually alive and well in Europe" stuff, I thought that was fine

The Lone Ranger and Tonto

I am not an avid fan of comics, and know little about them. I have only seen a few episodes of The Lone Ranger, so my choice based more on the concept his character than familiarity of the books, TV series, or movie.

I don't know if he is properly counted in as a super-hero, since he has no super-human powers. However (imo) not having them adds verisimilitude to his story, where other super-heroes tend to lean towards fantasy. Not have extraordinary other than makes him more down to Earth hero. His marksmanship could be consider almost superhuman, but there are examples in history like Annie Oakley who was extremely talented.

The Lone Ranger is also not part of the Marvel/DC comical universe, so that's another reason he probably be overlooked as a superhero per-se. But even so there are some similarities, he is a masked man who operates around (not with, or against) law enforcement. A vigilante who brings criminals to justice without killing them in the process. He has a friend (side-kick) that helps him narrowly escape perils. He has a back-story that involves a death of a family member (think Superman, Batman, and Spider-man) that profoundly changes the course of his life, and effects him. He has a calling card, in his case a silver bullet, that people identify with. He has a sense of right & wrong, a respect for life while exacting justice, and yet despite having those good qualities is, in a way, marginalized from society.

Thanks Jansz! There are a lot, be warned! I need:
Wolverine, Cyclops, Captain America, Silver Surfer, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Thor (forget if he's there already), The Thing, Mister Fantastic, Invisible Girl, Human Torch, Deadpool, Green Arrow, Hawkeye, Robin, Spawn, Daredevil, Ghost Rider and Namor the Sub-Mariner. And any anyone else thinks I should have and missed.

Appreciate it mightily!
Excelsior!

No, he isn't. Next we'll have Roy friggin' Rogers! Cowboys are not Superheroes (except maybe Ghost Rider). Also...

Who gives a **** about Namor? Aquaman is far bigger, and people still don't give all that much of a **** about him. And you forgot the Flash again.
