Wonder Man, Cooler than Superman
I thought a comedian like the Beast would naturally gravitate to a classic straight man like Simon Williams, and vice versa. They’re also both bright and intellectual. I had fun playing them off against each other. David Michelinie did great stuff with them, things I would never think of. He’s amazing with that kind of character interplay. Sure, they could co-star in a series, if you had a Michelinie or his clone writing it.-Jim Shooter
that's a really interesting article. I, for one, am not adverse to characters being religious, as belief in a higher being makes up about 99% of the world's population

Mikl C: SAGE! Someone should press her reboot button then stomp on her head til she dies.:
Thor always gives praise to his High Father ODIN.
Firebird is a deeply religious woman to the point she would rather serve the church than be a super-hero; she seems to only make her appearances in The Avengers as a guest role in a few stories. I would like her deep religious convictions to be used more often as a permanent member of The Avengers, but I think the Marvel editors are scared of making Christians mad if someone wrote Firebird wrong...
They didn't put Nightcrawler on that list, and his faith is like a hallmark of his very character.

Right; you have to go up one level to find the main list. Nightcrawler's article is at

The Wonder Man article was just a list of people involved in the Infinity Crusade.
Daredevil is pretty religious. So much, in fact, that when trying to figure out a way to break his spirit, Mysterio chose to use his Catholic faith against him.

I would have picked Bonita (Firebird), Kurt Wagner (Nightcrawler), and Matt Murdock (Daredevil) in that order for the top three.
