Superhero Net Worth

>>94636926
Didn't include Lex Luthor. Shit list.

>According to the comics, the material costs $10,000 per gram, and Wakanda's Vibranium vaults have 10,000 tons of the stuff (Doomwar #1). A little math and that amount of Vibranium would cost more than the GDP of the entire world.

Pretty sure Emma Frost is a billionaire

>>94636988
>superhero

but since you asked

Lex: 4.7 Bil

Black panther shit is dumb as fuck. Literally equivalent to a kid going
>I HAVE THE ABILITY TO HAVE ALL SUPER POWERS
Atleast the other Heroes net worths are believable for what their line of work entails.
>hur hurrrr but wakanda has like sooper sekrit deposits of vibranium
I don't give a fuck what they have

>>94637042
Shouldn't that be Wakanda's net worth and not Panthers then?

>>94636926

Emma has way more than 3 million. She funded the X-men privately for a time. 3 Million isn't enough to do that. Hell 3 million isn't really even rich anymore. It's just comfortable.

I want to object about Black Panther, but I guess insofar as Wakanda's an absolute monarchy, its GDP does in fact count as his personal fortune, and based on the calculations in >>94637042 it would probably be pretty massive. So, sure, I'll allow it.

GDP is gross domestic product. keyword Product. It only counts what is sold to a domestic or international consumer (and government spending). If it doesn't get sold, then it's not considered business. Planting a flower garden is hard manual labor, but it's not work if you're not getting paid.

Compare it to the deBeers diamond monopoly. They have DI diamonds in their possession, that are off the market/not for sale.

>>94637777
wait...Warren is richer than Emma?

>>94637136
If BP is the Autocrat of Wakanda, then Wakanda's fortune is literally Black Panther's fortune.

What about Reed Richards? Tony Stark? Norman Osborn? The Kingpin? Namor?

>>94638764
It takes place after Schism. Where Wolverine suddenly gets queasy about mutants only knowing violence after Utopia gets attacked by a giant sentinel. Even though it happens every fucking week and people should realize how often the school is attacked.

Wolverine decides to start a school and begins recruiting from the X-Men to be his faculty and Cyclops tries to get them to stay. Hence the panels of cavemen as its just a tribal war in the X-Men of who is going to lead the mutants.

Ironically Wolverine wins and leaves with half the X-Men, but the school is attacked on the first fucking day.

>>94637042

But BP can't actually access any of that money, because that would mean selling it.

And how many times has Vibranium been (legally) sold? Two, three times in fairly small amounts?

The fuck does Xavier do, hold a patent?

>>94637042
Shouldn't vibranium become the worlds new currency then?

Uuuuuuh, if natural resources are a consideration, and kings representing those lands in turn hold that wealth, shouldn't Aquaman be magnitudes richer than T'Challa?

He rules 3/4 of the entire planet, his domain encompasses the food stock of over 2/3 the world's population, and his access to mineral/resource wealth would be magnitudes greater than every country combined.

>>94639262
fuck you Arthur, I'm going to fish the seas and not give you a penny

>>94637198
if you clicked the link it was the real world's GDP not the comic book world.

>>94639165
he uses his telepathy to cheat the stock markets

>>94639262
Thing is anyone can profit from the sea while not having to pay shit to Aquaman/Namor. Your average joe can't just simply walk into Wakanda, take all the vibranium he needs and sell it on the street.

>Black Panther: $90.7 trillion
I know he's a king but that's fucking ridiculous. Where did they even get that number from?

>>94639262
Yeah, but normies think Aquaman is lame so the casuals that make these lists will continue to ignore him.

>>94639240
Too rare

>>94636926
Haven't read much of nuSpider-Man. I heard his company rivals Tony Stark's now, so is he a multibillionaire as well now?

>>94636926

>B.Panther: $90.7 Tril

That's a lot of stolen bikes.

>>94639354
Like >>94637042 says: VIBRANIUM, NIGGA. That shit's more valuable than gold, more valuable than platinum, more valuable than anything else in the Marvel Universe. Pretty justifiably so, considering everything it can do.

I think it makes more sense for it to be rare like it is in the MCU, considering its stated value per gram, rather than it being like it is in 616 where it seems like everybody and their fucking mother has some sort of vibranium toothbrush or something.

>>94636926
Unfortunately for T'Challa, a plot by Doctor Doom to steal Wakanda's Vibranium forced the king to release a fail safe rending the stockpile inert, and potentially worthless.
So not $90 trillion then

Also surely if Wakanda has that much then it's not worth as much?

>>94639346
Aquaman is just more forgiving and realistic about helping the world, but he could wreck shit at a scale that BP could only dream of to protect his resources.

To put it into perspective: by gold alone, Aquaman has claim to about double the wealth that BP has in vibranium value. That's just gold. When you consider the pockets of REEs that he would have, things would start to get astronomical. And that's just REEs. Add in fuel sources, and you're looking at hundreds of billions more. Now if he were to monetize aquatic life as food sources, which he could by changing migration routes and fucking over entire nations until they acquiesce, he would put 2/3 of the world's population over a barrel and could probably push his wealth into a quadrillion dollars.

>>94639582
Injustice: Aquaman Edition

>>94639582
I should have put a tl;dr that says time.com just wanted an article that people could share involving Black Panther looking good. Because in no way is ANYONE on Earth in Marvel or DC richer than Aquaman.

>>94639547
>Also surely if Wakanda has that much then it's not worth as much?
Wakanda uses the deBeers method of hoarding to create artificial rarity and thus keep prices as high as possible.

>>94639668
>>94639582
Except the moment Aquaman tries to privatize the sea the entire world would go after his ass, super heroes included, so counting it as his personal wealth is retarded since he'll never be able to profit from it like Black Panther does.

>>94639425
He was. In the comic, his company was destroyed by himself to stop dr octopus. He's going to the bugle again

>>94639582
what? Just cause gold is in the ocean doesn't automatically make it his.

>>94639742
He could checkmate the entire world by sudokuing the world fish population. Literally nobody would be dumb enough to fuck with that man if he were put into a position of losing it all and being pushed into that sort of position. Black Panther has a giant ass rock that he never sells parts of. Aquaman controls the world's major food supply. If he wanted to, and defied his core character (which is pretty much the absolute only weakness in my argument, I will concede), nobody could stop his demands.

>>94640006
>Literally nobody would be dumb enough to fuck with that man if he were put into a position of losing it all and being pushed into that sort of position
except for the times it happens of course?

>>94640035
Which is why I mentioned the fact that his core character is the thing that prevents it. But spread every aspect out and look at it objectively, and you know how much power he wields. It's just that his better nature prevents him from being a villain.

>>94636926
eh, he owns a country. Kinda like Putin.

>>94640006
Batman exists. Superman exists. They stop him like every other villain that has tried something similar, throw him in jail and he ends up poorer than you.

Accounting the sea as someone's wealth is impossible not to mention dumb.

>>94639297
>Random civilian drowned at sea

>>94640097
Get this through your head, because it will make this unnecessary aspect of the conversation (entirely your doing) easier if you do: he COULD kill off the world. But he doesn't. Therefore it's a moot issue. But he COULD commodify the ocean, and nobody could stop him without destroying the world in the process. Therefore, it's his, and he's just generous. But it is certainly his wealth that he just gives away.

>>94639626
I wanna see an Injustice version of each of the JL members now.

>>94640178
>he COULD kill off the world.
so could countless other heroes and villains. That doesn't make him special, at all.

why are arthurfags so insufferable?

>>94640178
So would Superman but you don't see anyone arguing he should be over Negro man in the list because he can potentially seize the planet and make everything his and therefore making him the richest man in the world.
But now you're moving posts from "Aquaman should be in the list because he resides on the sea so everything should be accounted as his" to "Aquaman can fuck up the world if he wanted" which is a completely different topic that no one but you in a feeble attempt at damage control wants to discuss.

You get this through your head: Trying to monopolize the sea in any fashion for any reason is an impossible task since everybody and their mothers would go for the head of the one doing so. Hell, Batman probably has already a plan in case some Atlantis nut is planning to do so.

And of course this >>94640277.

>Tony Stark: $12.4 Bil
There's no fucking way. He's the CEO of a weapons manufacturing company that just fucking tanked 65% in the first movie (without the economy noticing, I might add). The largest purely weapons manufacturing company in the USA, that has perpetual contracts with the military to an extent Stark can only dream of, is Lockheed-Martin with $47 billion in net assets. Does Stark own more than a quarter of his company?

>>94642349

>using your countries wealth to fund surface dwellers

That's probably why

A Speedforce user can potentially time travel to their past/future and bring all of that past/future selves' money into the present. Constantly repeating the process until they surpass Black Panther.

For example, SFU travel 1 attosecond into the past and future. The present have $5, past have $5 and future have $5. After time travel, you would now have $15. And now repeat the process but this time, present have $15, past have $15 and future have $15. After time travel that is $45. Rinse and repeat. Only problem is the minor potential time paradox and the fact that the serial code are all the same.

Bruce should be comparable to Lex, although not sure how FP fucked with that, or even how Rebirth is fucking with that.

At one point, Sivana Industries (or whatever his company was cold) was comparable to Lex's (below it) at about 4-5 billion.

>>94639742
BP doesn't have 90 something trillion dollars sitting in a bank. He can't even BORROW 1 trillion against his 90 something trillion value.

So it's BS for you to say BP can profit from his stockpile and Arthur can't. If Atlantis wanted to, there is a ton of sunken treasure of all kinds that they can access, literally actual value that they could take to any bank in any nation on the planet, that would excess actual COLD HARD CASH that Wakanda has absent BP selling off the vibranium (which would likely decrease it's value as well).

>>94640789

I think Stark owns a controlling interest in Stark Industries. Time's figures are BS because we have people on the top of the richest list who don't have the kinds of ownership interest (notwithstanding Nolan's stupid plot which is just no realistic in any way shape or form), Bruce Wayne is essentially also a controlling interest, but even people who only had a portion of control in companies now (again Bill Gates only owned a small portion of the stock in Microsoft) are much richer than this stupid list is implying.

>>94639240
Vibranium has all kinds of wonder metal properties, Its too useful to be used like gold and silver used to be. It would be like making iron a currency metal

>>94636926

If you're going to allow T'challa to count his country's wealth as his own, Doom should be on the list (but presumably Latvaria isn't as wealthy as Wakanda) and Lex should be at the top of the list by having the USA's wealth from his presidential stint.

Vibranium is only mega-expensive because its kept artificially scarce, you can't really account the Wakandan reserves of the stuff by the rarity price because the price would collapse if you tried to sell it. The price of a glass of water to a man dying of thirst in a desert wasteland does not make me wealthy from having a water spout in my kitchen fridge.

>Lex should be at the top of the list by having the USA's wealth from his presidential stint.

This is one thing that has essentially stayed retconned from FP since no one has mentioned Lex being president. Additionally, you misunderstand how the presidency works. Sure, someone like Bill Clinton has more money available this post presidency than say Richard Nixon (whose primary motive for the Frost interviews was the cold hard cash). But Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, the first Bush and, so far as anyone can see, the second Bush have not or did not shown any signs of having additional wealth post their presidency than when they were inaugurated.

Oh, and even Doom knows that Latvaria's 'wealth' is just shit and pig farmers, anon.

Oh, I agree that being US President does not mean you suddenly, magically, have personal and complete control of the nation's GDP.

For that same reason, I don't think T'challa should be listed as having his own country's entire wealth at his disposal. Wakandan kings have much more power than US presidents but even there it isn't absolute, if BP went on a reserves-busting spending spree either the ruling council would oust him or there would be a coup.

"Wealth" should be measured in what the individuals have largely unfettered control over.

What about that Buy A Star site?
I own THAT celestial body. Right? Right?

>>94645860
Does this include said Flashes speedforcing their way into the green?

How about peeps like Superman constantly creating diamonds in his fist?

Or Firestorm being able to synthesize pretty much any element you want?

>>94645902
Well, theorize on it, genius. Don't just attack people who ask same questions but about Aquaman.

>>94645896
No, it's just named after you.
And if some alien goes there and builds a Dyson sphere, really doubt he's going to care about what you bought in a website.

Personal net worth is not the same as the net worth of a company.

Wut? I'm one of the pro-Aquaman posters.

I wonder if Deadpool can sell his flesh, regen it, then sell it, etc.

I was thinking organs, but they might be too cancerous.

>>94645853
>The US and Russia have also signed the Outer Space Treaty.
>Nobody can own any celestial body, which sadly, has slowed down space exploraton due to the lack of incentive of owning land.

That's our universe.

The reality of their universe is that they don't matter as legal entities and that actual legal agreements on how to claim posession and own celestial bodies do exist in and between legal entities that do matter. Heck, some celestial bodies are natural persons even, which means that somebody could very well construct a case in which he is in charge of managing a planet's legal affairs, down to land sales.

>>94644318
Nah I like to think Bruce should be a lot richer than Lex since he bankrolls the league and bat equipment under the table so he needs a sizable fortune for the board members and public eye to not notice that there are holes in his money while Lex is an open hero/villain.

Agreed. Modern military aircraft from advanced developed economies literally cost billions just to manufacture. And that's not factoring the price of ensuring it all stays functional, requiring years of training just to have pilots operate them, and ensuring it's all up-to-standards.

Stark's suits are all more advanced than all of the American military aircraft available, are composed of rare, exotic materials, equipped with advanced technology no one has matched, and probably has an artificial intelligence assisting it, which that alone charges a fortune.

This all has to come from Stark's personal account, because I really doubt his majority stockholders consent to him allocating corporate resources in his personal suits just to play hero and get joyride out of it.

>>94646091
>Batman is literally running a money laundering operation for himself and his friends, stealing money from his board in order to finance their private military operation and his bum-fighting habit

>>94646414
Stark cuts all the regulatory bullshit and that would take the cost down to 1/10 of it. But you are still right, his suit would cost his entire fortune essentially. Marvel hasn't really kept up with inflation well.

Lex would never be stupid enough to not have a controlling share in his own company. Tbf, I doubt he'd even be willing to answer to a board.

I remember reading a comic involving Spider-man asking Iron Man why he doesn't just offer the entire Avengers team powered armor. Iron Man's response was that if Spider-man has 20+ billion lying around just for him to have Iron Man-level of armor. I think that's just the price he's charging just to make the goddamn armor, not including repairs, maintenance, upgrades, etc

Clearly, Tony's armors are hella expensive, even for him. There's was a recent Civil War comic of Rhodey asking why his suit isn't as advanced as Tony, and Tony states that he's handing Rhodey an outdated armor that's worth billions on the free market to him for free. Of course, that didn't stop Cap from getting one from Tony when he asked for one, though.

>>94646607
even if he somehow isn't the majority share holder(which I doubt he would let go), he would have black mail on his competitors.

Doctor Doom has a time machine, all the others are irrelavant.

>>94646414
True, but Stark can somewhat justify it by tying Iron Man stuff into existing Stark Enterprises R&D and capitalizing on the Iron Man trademark and likeness for merchandise. The ruggedization and miniaturization of computer components in the Iron Man suit alone would catapult the company to the undisputed forefront of a large chunk of the computer industry.

>>94646091

I think both should be richer than this implies if you look at how much Buffet and Gates are worth. 12B is nothing. There's a guy in Mexico worth that much essentially from controlling the phone networks in Latin America and to a much lesser extent some SA countries as well.

>>94646073
Organs would barely get him into the millionaires club and he'd have to sell them all to do that. Plus which since he wasn't actually cured of his cancer, his organs would be worthless, just as a hemophiliacs can't be given way, much less sold.

>>94647229

A time machine doesn't bring actual wealth. At best, he could invest 100 in Apple stock or Google. 20 years ago.

If Doom can't even use a machine to control the planet, how the fuck is he going to manage to make a dime?

Reed Richards or Doom could easily make gold or whatever shit they want. They are infinitely rich.

You would obviously say "well, if they create so much gold, there would be much more offer than demand and the price would plummet!".

And you would be right!

If the amount of vibranium Wakanda has exceeds the gdp of the world, then who could buy that shit? It cannot be bought, thus it cannot be sold, then its not valued at the correct price.

VIbranium price is because Wakanda doesnt sell it. So you need to go to the blackmarket. The current value of Wakanda's vibranium is zero dollars until they decide to sell it. If they want to sell it, the price should plummet or else no one could afford it.

You guys forgetting in the film he built a functioning suit with a box of scraps when he was first captured? Just imagine what he could do with even a small fortune.


Hell he was the one guyable to miniaturize the arc reactor when the
Stark Industries own best and brightest were having difficulties.

Tony doesn't need trillions dollars worth of money to build a single suit.

>>94647229
Doom uses the machine to find lost or stolen mystical relics. He is too smart to damage the time space continuuum.

Money doesn't really mean anything in comics if you can just take some junk and a space rock and obliterate reality.

As pointed several times Wakanda cannot sell the vbranium without collapsing the price. And the current high price of vibranium is only because artificial scarcity. You cant multiply the price of black market vibranium with the wakanda reserves and use that number.

White people always win.

>>94648524
Vibranium isn't diamonds where the entire value is based on scarcity. It's incredibly useful and would change the entire worlds material sciences

Yeah you're right and was it in End Game(?) where Bruce has that bat robot thing where he said it cost more than what most countries spend on their military budget also he has a batcave in the moon and also Hell Bat Armor must have been expensive as fuck.

You aren't thinking De Beers yet.

If you got enough of something, you effectively control the market, meaning you get to set the price.

>>94648524
Wakanda should just sell the military supertech with restrictive and controlling maintenance and spare parts contracts. Think about how many second or third tier powers would pay out the ass for Wakandan superjet.

>>94649082
Yes, and?

>>94648838
Are you fucking retarded? The amount of vibranium wakanda has priced at black market levels is superior to the whole world gpd. IT CANNOT BE BOUGHT, THEREFOR IT CANNOT BE SOLD.

The moment wakanda starts selling it, the price would plummet since the current price (black market) IT IS valued based on scarcity (there is practically none outside Wakanda)

>>94649090
yes it has to do with the percentage of shares they'd own

Also, T'challa is the king, so the vibranium is his, yes, but the moment he started selling it to outsiders he'd lose his mandate pretty fast.

>>94648838
The problem is that the MU has shown the ability to create and maintain technologies comparable to Wakandan tech without using vibranium. What good is an insanely expensive supermaterial if more accessible workarounds already exist?

>>94649116
Like if he can produce it cheaper than mining with slaves (which he easily can), then everybody else is too damn expensive so they quit and invest their money into sex slave trafficking, drug production or some other form of crime. Once they lost the knowhow on how to actually run a gold mining operation and once he's established as the main source of gold, he gets to dictate the price.

Happened just recently when the Saudis decided that they actually don't like fracking.

>>94648838


diamond is the hardest known naturally occurring substance; it's pretty much reality's closest match to Vibranium

Why is Xavier rich again? Something about Jew/Nazi Gold?

>>94649215
The real problem is that nobody who isn't dressed like a clown and whose friends wear nothing but body-paint and shoes can actually keep any high tech maintained for longer than a couple of pages.

I mean, such as it is, none of the thousands of types of direct energy weapons produced in the US ever caught on in any capacity.

>>94649279
He probably scams people into paying into his trust fund or something. His fortune falls into the same category as the legality and morale soundness of everything Batman is involved.

>>94647837
Infinite gold and diamonds just mean you make them worthless. Value comes from scarcity.

>>94649242

>>94649116

Infinite doesn't mean that everybody has it, just that somebody has it all while nobody else can actually make a profit producing it.
