Ok, I recently saw a preview for Metamorpho: Year One in which a reporter descirbed Simon Stagg as the second Richest man on earth. Now, I doubt that title still applys to Stagg (it IS a year one after all, and Lex Luthor has not had the time to make and lose his fortune yet). Who would you peg as the top ten richest in the DCU?

Lex would be one I guess. Bruce 3. However, they still never explained this. After Lex was ousted from the White House, Bruce claimed a lot of his property in Metropolis.

Yeah, I think Bruce owns a pretty handsome chunk of Lex's fortune/company/real estate now.

Given the storylines of the past few years, he probably is #1, but just hasn't been officially mentioned as such. Lex was for a long time, and I'd say Bruce has knocked him down.

back when they had the old DC heroes RPG they described Lex as #1 but bruce wasn't anywhere close. he was simply just comfortably rich. of course that has changed a lot in recent years.

Oliver queen is pretty rich, would he be top 10?

Lex has probbaly lost the #1 spot by now. I don't know if Bruce has taken it from him or not. Oliver queen used to be pretty rich but I seem to remember he lost it all. I don't read Green Arrow so I don't know if he recovered any of it or not.

It wouldn't surprise me if an immortal like Vandal Savage were rich due to the fact that he's had centuries to build his wealth. Talia probably has a lot of money she inherited from Ras.

I know Ted Kord used to be rich until Max Lord starting tapping into his fortune.

Steve Dayton used to be #5 when he was in Titans. Not sure if he still is or not in the rebooted DP continuity.

Captain Marvel is the richest, because he has the most valuable thing of all:

DOOM has a county in Latveria of all virgin women for his potential brides. and yes, they do get curious at times.

edit: yes, somethng is wrong with me, and i'm keeping my idiot mistake in the post because i want it to be an example of how i used to be when i become a better person.

umm, replace DOOM with Rajiv or whatever evil warlord is in the DCU. black adam lost his country right?... think of one, and replace in your mind. sorry.
