Top 10 Sexiest Comic Book Guys

Just as guys have always crushed on the females of comics, the small(er) number of women who read also have similar attractions. They may be simply lines and colors on a page but they sure can change the way you see a comic. So, enjoy the Top 10 Sexiest Comic Book Guys.

#10. The Flash (Wally West)

WHY: I debated whether or not to start my list with Wally or Hal Jordan. It was a tough call this far down but Wally wins out because of one reason: family dedication. Looks-wise, I’d say Jordan wins by a hair but Wally’s so ridiculously family guy that it clinched it for me. Also a big bonus: The Speed Force. I mean, come on! Plus, he’s got really pretty green eyes to accentuate the red hair. Yum.

#9. Green Arrow (Oliver Queen)

WHY:Though I find the cheesy goatee utterly amusing (and not in a good way), there’s a reason Ollie makes this list, and it’s not the Robin Hood get-up. I think it’s the way he’s the most upstanding guy without being kind of a dork in a Superman way. He actually believes what he stands for and doesn’t hesitate to back it up. Plus, the man’s ripped. Aside from some general asshattery, the guy’s pretty awesome.

#8. Midnighter (Unknown)

WHY:Being known only as Midnighter makes him even cooler in my opinion. I rank him in my list because he is the unattainable. The man’s totally dedicated and in love with his husband, Apollo but that adds to his hotness. Throw in his dark brooding personality and we have a winner. It’s Midnighter that made me want to read more of The Authority.

#7. Superman (Clark Kent)

WHY:Ok ok, so he’s a big ol’ Boy Scout and almost TOO good but he’s, well, indestructible and attractive in a “you’re a big dork” kind of way. There’s a reason Lois Lane sticks by him: he’s polite and bumbling and an all around good guy. Oh, and he can save the world. Never mind that though because as Clark Kent, he’s all lovable and cuddly. I also love reading Superman/Batman because they’re interactions are so cute; they don’t even realize it. So Superman ranks seventh on my list; yeah, he’s pretty.

#6. Red Arrow/Arsenal (Roy Harper)

WHY:Two phrases that sum up the attraction to Harper: “Tortured past” and “Dedicated father.” What do women want but men who need healing and a guy who’s a good dad? Also a fabulous friend to Dick Grayson, Roy’s the kind of upstanding man women dig. The second red-head on my list, Roy’s got the kind of personality to make it to number six, despite the heroin addiction so many years ago. We can forgive that, can’t we?

#5. Gambit (Remy LeBeau)

WHY:With his smoldering red eyes, tightly muscled thighs and that Cajun accent, Remy worms his way into the hearts of many a woman in the comic book world and beyond. His forbidden romance with Rogue symbolized the ultimate thrill for me as a teenage girl reading the pages of Uncanny Xmen. Plus, he has a secret history of theft and roguery that lends itself to the mysterious persona. Bo staff skills and kinetic energy are big bonuses when it comes to this crafty Cajun.

#4. Robin III/Red Robin (Tim Drake)

WHY:I am reluctant to admit my thing for young Timothy for he really IS pretty young. Though his age is often debated (some feel he ought to be perpetually 17) I think he’s technically around 18 now. But if you’re a devout Bat-reader, you’d know that Tim is wise beyond his years. He has mad skills like his older “brother”, Dick, but he’s more calculated and intense, intuitive and introspective. I dare say when he grows up, he’ll even surpass Dick in the sexiness department.

#3. Batman/Nightwing (Richard Grayson)

WHY:Though he may have gone through a lot of REALLY bad costumes – both as Robin and Nightwing – Dick remains one of the sexiest guys to grace the pages of a comic book. Be it his, er, assets, as accentuated by the last Nightwing costume or the fact that he’s gotten into his share of superheroin beds, Dick oozes charm. I’m diggin’ him as Batman and I also really like the relationship between him and young Damian. It is, dare I say, cute.

#2. Wolverine (Logan)

WHY:Without projecting any qualities on this character that may have come from Hugh Jackman’s performance in the movies, this guy is still tops. I fell in love with him more than a decade before anyone made an Xmen film. He may be only 5’7’’ but his muscled body brings more to the table than if he were an entire foot taller. He’s the perpetual bad boy and I always loved how he had the hots for Jean even thoug we all know it’s Scott and Jean. The feral animal instinct, the loner mentality, and his apparent reluctance to admit that he actual *cares* for you bring Wolvie in at number two on this list.

#1. Batman (Bruce Wayne)

WHY:I had to make the distinction because first and foremost, in his own head, he is Batman and then Bruce Wayne. But the fact of the matter is, there’s nothing sexier than a man a.) dressed all in black, b.) who IS the night and who c.) has a ton of gadgets and knows how to use them. He’s well-traveled, extremely well read, and always has a trick up his sleeve. He can be silent and cunning and yet, charismatic and charming. Bruce Wayne, when in Playboy mood, can charm the panties off any Gotham lady but his true sexiness comes through when he’s out for justice, saving the soul of Gotham when he ought to be in bed. And oh how women dream about Bruce Wayne’s bed. Batman represents the ultimate dark hero and to me, is the number one pick on this list. Love ya, Bats!
