Is there even one A-list Marvel or DC superhero with two living, married parents?
Superman.
Vision

Pa Kent dies in Brainiac pre-FP
Both are dead post-FP
>>94550131
Kamal...damn
Probably should check the X-Men I guess
>>94550160
When did Kamala's parents die?
>>94550131
Damian WayneDuke Thomas
>>94550253
>A-List
>Married parents
Bunk humped.
>>94550148
that ultron model died along time ago and wasn't married
>>94550236
>>94550253
>A-list
>>94550295
Literally no A-list characters have been created at Marvel or DC since the 90s.
>>94550131
There are just three A list heroes.
>>94550311
I'd argue B-list as well.
>>94550131
Wonder Woman
>>94550327
>married
>>94550316
This.
Barry Allen's parents were happily married and alive prior to Crisis. Also, Rider Nova (I know he's not really A-list) had both parents alive and married until the recent solo when they killed the father off.
I believe Tim Drake had already been Robin for two years when his parents were killed off. Wasn't really necessary.
>>94550131
Wouldn't A list just mean non legacy?
>>94550408
No? Barry, Wally, Hal are A-Listers
Thor.
Or do the Asgardians not believe in marriage or some bullshit like that?
>>94550416
None of those are A listers.
>>94550590
(you)
>>94550549
Thor's parents aren't married. His mother is Gaea.
>>94550131
A listers will never have a completely perfect life. The innate tragedy that made them heroes is what resonates with folks. The closest an a lister got to a happy family was Byrne Superman.
>>94550341
>Barry Allen's parents were happily married and alive prior to Crisis
Prior to Johns's Flash Rebirth even.
>>94550131
Thor
>>94550851
Didn't Odin and whatsherface split during Whor run?
>>94550851
>>94550859
Frigga is Thor's stepmother.
Hank Pym actually hasn't managed to kill his parents last I checked.
>>94550131
I really like this picture.
Monica Rambeau's parents are still alive and married, by she's c-list best.
>>94551609
It's from the crossover from 2003-2004.
Ares
>>94550341
The entire point of this thread is that people like Barry and Rider had their parents grim darkified. Barry wasn't even A-list until after his parents were killed because he came back with a dead mom.
>>94552213
>Barry wasn't even A-list until after his parents were killed because he came back with a dead mom.
Nah. He's been A-list since his inception. I'd argue every founding member of the JLA is A-list except Martian Manhunter and Cyborg.
Are Mister Miracle's parents married? I know Highfather married a few times.
I really wish there were at least a few characters who weren't motivated by family tragedy and had more of a happy life.
>>94552213
Rider's parents weren't "grim-darkified" or whatever it is you're trying to say. His dad died of regular cancer while Rich was trapped in the Cancerverse. It was sad.
Everyone dies you guys. Even your parents.
>>94551610
I think Monica's mother died off panel in NEXTWAVE
It was referenced in Mighty Avengers
Jean had a whole family for most of her history.
>>94550316
Those are S list not A list, if we're being fair
>>94553736
There are lot of those, but they still have dead or separated parents. Superman probably being the biggest example of someone generally not tortured into heroism.
>>94552213
Barry legit kicked off the silver-age, and was on hand for the first alternate reality stories. He's not just a-list, he is one of the two or three most important properties ever,and I don't even like fuckng DC. What in the fuck are you even talking about?
Frindge A-List:
Captain marvel
Iceman
Kyle Rayner
Kitty?
Also A-List means recognicable for those who had little contact with the medium right?
Basically whoever my father knows from his youth.
>>94555761
Kitty's dad died on Genosha
>>94550692
>>94550888
If we're not counting step parents then why would we count Superman's adoptive parents?
>>94555773
Hell, they got divorced in the mid 80s.
>>94550841
Not his fault, it was Moore's influence
Who would you even class as A-List?
>>94550151
Of all things, they still haven't retconned them back?
>>94550841
>Not knowing that it was just a long term masterstroke by based cereal king, which would come together at Rebirth.
>being this much of a pleb.
>>94555761
Don't remember if he ever died or not but Carol's father was terminally ill during Brian Reed's Ms. Marvel
>>94555761
Right. Tilt the search. Who is the HIGHEST tier character with living parents.
>>94555926
Apparently he qualifies them as movie stars, since he doesn't consider Hal Jordan and Barry Allen A-List.
>>94555761
if you think those are A-list you're wrong
More like C-List
>>94555926
heroes that literally everyone knows
Show a rice farmer in China a picture of Batman and he'll recognize it
Gwenpool
>>94550131
Harley Quinn, probably.
>>94556659
Again that's S list not A list
>>94556659
Very narrow range there.
>Batman
>Superman
>Spider-Man
>Wonder Woman?
That's it. You have no idea what A-List means
>>94555761
Billy's parents are both dead
MARVEL teams are now in the DC universe
who's a mutant?
who's an avenger?
who's a knight?
who's part of the thunderbolts?
who's an inhuman and part of the royal family/king?
