Top 10 Superheroes and Villains Embodied by Multiple People


throughout comic book history there have
been many instances where multiple
people have donned the same mantle who
am i I’m spider-man
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
superheroes slash villains embodied by
multiple people
number 10 Green Lantern Alan Scott Hal
Jordan Kyle Rayner and Jon Stewart have
you concluded admiring news oh yeah Wow
that ring really gets around
the Green Lantern lineage began with
Alan Scott an engineer that fashioned
his ring from a magic lamp I
Hal Jordan do solemnly swear to pledge
allegiance to a lantern in later years
this story was rebooted with Hal Jordan
and the Green Lantern Corps an
intergalactic band of space cops when
Hal Jordans hometown was destroyed and
Jordan himself had a mental breakdown
it was Kyle Rayner who took up the ring
redeeming the Green Lantern title
another notable human Green Lantern is
u.s. Marine veteran Jon Stewart who is
chosen by the Corps as a backup to Hal
Jordan and served as the Green Lantern
throughout the seventies we can’t be
worrying about each other when we’re
fighting the bad guys too late for that
what else you got number nine Nite Owl
Hollis Mason and Dan driver it wasn’t
fair what happened to you guys you guys
who picked up where we left off with
Nixon forcing you out
Mason’s aspirations to become a
crime-fighting vigilante encouraged him
to put down his badge and adopt a mask
giving birth to Nite Owl fewer first
cops we get together we figure what the
heck we’ll mask up to we’ll finish what
the law couldn’t his stint as the hero
was well lived but certain personal
matters forced him to hang up the cowl
after World War two and become an author
you’re a better Nite Owl than I ever was
Danny Boy Alice we both know that’s
bullshit years later dad dreiberg being
a huge fan of the vigilante plans to
expand on the heroes persona with a
spruced up costume and an assortment of
birth’ style tech impressed by the boys
tenacity Mason gave the Protege
permission to use his name and become
the official niteowl to
number eight Miss Marvel Carol Danvers
and Kamala Khan Carol Danvers paved the
way for female superheroes everywhere
with her debut as Miss Marvel in 1977 my
name is Miss Marvel and I’m here to
welcome you to earth now go home in 2012
Danvers assume with the mantle of the
Fallen Captain Marvel and it was the 16
year old Kamala Khan who filled in as
the new Miss Marvel ever since Kamala’s
powers differed by imbuing her with
morphing abilities but this only allowed
her to adopt the name of her beloved
hero while crafting her own identity as
Marvel’s first Pakistani American
superhero guess what it’s your turn
number 7 Thor Thor Odinson beta ray bill
and Jane Foster it’s Paula has no equal
weapon to destroy what is the tool to
build Thor’s title as god of thunder
rests not in his name or birthright but
within Mjolnir a hammer imbued with
great power it’s been enchanted by Odin
so only the word can wield it and damn
if that hammer ain’t picky
whew besides Thor have proven worthy
over the years with beta ray bill
proving himself by vesting the Mighty
Thor in combat hoping to use the weapon
and the Norse gods identity to save
people recently Thor has found himself
unworthy and it was none other than Jane
Foster
Thor’s former love interest and close
friend who now wields the hammer and his
title in his stead
I believe that fate brought us together
number six venom Eddie Brock Peter
Parker and Flash Thompson hey Parker my
god Eddie this maniacal villain became
infamous as spider-man’s greatest threat
and rival time and time again
venom is in essence an alien parasite
like any good parasite it requires a
host to live and thrive off the Venom
symbiote its first target was Peter
Parker himself before moving on to Eddie
Brock where it claimed the venom
identity while it grants its hosts
enhanced physical capabilities it also
warps their minds and brings out the
hosts darker nature never moving too far
away from spider-man the symbiote
currently resides with Peter Parker’s
high school rival Flash Thompson
I wouldn’t want to fight me neither
number five green goblin Norman Osborn
Harry Osborn Bart Hamilton and Phil uric
like father like son we suppose the
title of this maniacal villain was first
coined by Norman Osborn president of
Oscorp using a secret serum Norman was
able to enhance his physical abilities
and intelligence but the compound of the
drug drove him insane I could squash you
like a bug right now but I’m offering
you a choice
join me imagine what we could accomplish
together after Osborne’s death during a
battle with spider-man
Norman’s son Harry becomes the new Green
Goblin Oh after Harry’s passing the
Green Goblin persona was used twice by
Bart Hamilton and Phil Urich
each to settle their own vendetta with
the webslinger it could cause you the
pain that you’ve caused me
number four Captain America Steve Rogers
Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson
Steve Rogers became the iconic Captain
America during World War two and
remained so for most of the century
however after Captain America was
presumably assassinated in 2007 Bucky
Barnes caps on again off again sidekick
continued the captain American tradition
Rogers returned and briefly reclaimed
the Captain America title until a battle
against the iron nail who neutralized
caps Super Soldier Serum causing Rogers
to hyper age thus passing the mantle to
caps other longtime sidekick Sam Wilson
number three spider-man Peter Parker and
Miles Morales while old-school
spider-man fans are familiar with the
nerdy photojournalist Peter Parker later
iterations of the comic series
introduced a new face after the death of
the Ultimate Universe spider-man miles
miles grew up highly inspired by the
web-slinger’s antics and when he
undergoes a similar transformation from
an Oscorp experiment he designs a
costume closely based off Peter Parker’s
original design and assumes the role of
the spider-man putting on the best he’s
gonna make it strong
trust me put it on there you go that’s
it that’s it buddy SC okay now climb
number two the flash Jay Garrick Barry
Allen Wally West and Bart Allen Barry
can you hear me
yeah declare the flash lineage runs deep
within various incarnations of the
Scarlet speedster despite being the
first version of the superhero Golden
Age Jay Garrick is also the most obscure
iteration Barry Allen came some time
afterwards and along with being the most
identifiable flash started the modern
flash lineage
barry’s nephew while west inherited his
powers in an accident similar to his
uncle’s and Bart Allen Barry’s grandson
inherited his genetically cata Wally and
Bart also assumed the role of Kid Flash
before graduating into full-fledged
speedsters when can this gig more every
minute welcome aboard
I’m kid flash before we unveil our top
pick here are a few honorable mentions
number one Robin Dick Grayson Jason Todd
Tim Drake and Damian Wayne I need a name
Fat Boy Nightwing
I don’t know what do you think what’s a
good sidekick name standing in the
shadow if the Dark Knight himself is no
easy trick but these boy wonders all
proved that they were up to the
challenge
Dick Grayson took on the role of the
first ever Robin and eventually grew up
and assumed his own identity as
Nightwing who’s that other one the
Pretty Boy lilia Todd that’s Nightwing
you wish the batch first sidekick the
second Robin was Jason Todd who much
like Grayson was a circus acrobat this
character met a brutal fate at the hands
of the Joker but was later revived as
the Red Hood I guess we should keep it
even
Jason Tim Drake later proved himself as
a worthy robbing candidate but was
beaten out of his spot by Batman’s
illegitimate son Damian wait I’m Robin
the Boy Wonder
