Who is number 4?

Is the 80s, 90s and 2000s it was Wolverine.

I don’t know now though.

Wonder Woman, Hulk or Flash

I'd say it's Flash or Hulk but their lack of real theatre presence means they aren't nearly as big as these guys so maybe someone else is closer

Superman

What happened with wolverine as a kid all the way o my 20s wolverine was THE GUY.

Ia it because disney mcu or just coincidence the push stopped?

MCU not having X-Men and introducing the other heroes to the common folk so the popularity spot of Wolverine got taken by the likes of Captain America, Iron Man and Thor

X-Men got pushed to the sidelines.

People started liking Cyclops after the animated series and the movie did their best to dunk on him

Wolverine didn’t get so artificially pushed as to appear in covers of books he wasn’t even in

And people just plain finding other Superheroes to self-insert as

Take your pick

Nobody.

All these three heroes embodies the greatest superhero archetypes:

Superman: the classical superhero

Batman: the proto-super hero that lurk in the shadow

Spiderman: the everyman super hero

No other supers have better archetype than these guys.

Iron Man’s rise to popularity in particular is my best bet.

People wanted to self-insert as Wolverine because they wanted to be a cool, dark haired loner that slept with a bunch of babes and fought supervillains.

Now you have exactly that but add to the fact that you’re rich and also super smart.

Wonder Woman: The chick

>The chick
That's why her comic sale sucks. Same as her archetype

Hulk/wolverine

Superman, since Iron Man is still super popular due to the MCU

Diana is functionally the distaff counterpart to Superman in the eyes of the masses.

Deadpool. Spidey needs a friend, he's third wheeling here

Schmorky?

It's Wondy then the Hulk. Normies have been using both as metaphors for a long time.

Bump

He's the biggest outside of the big 2 companies, but not number 4. That oughta be Iron man.

I'm pretty sure it's Wolverine

You guys always forget the kid market. Kids fuckin love Hulk.

Jesus, that's horrible.

if only.

Wolverine

Superman isn't relevant anymore. It's between Spider-Man and Batman.

Also, OT, Iron Man, he pretty much spearheaded the MCU and benefited the most from the franchise's popularity. Captain America is not far behind him.

>Superman isn't relevant anymore.
>"Superman, but bad!" is trendy
Even when they're dragging him through the mud, he still manages to be relevant in some manner.

With Deadpool coming to the MCU his popularity is going to triple all the way to number 4, if not even number 3.
