Batman [In reply to] Can't Post
Batman is my favorite non-Tolkien character. Why? Because he's Batman! (Heh, little joke for the "How It Should Have Ended" fans). I love how dark and determined and obsessed he is, how he can stand toe to toe with gods without any superpowers, and how despite being a self-professed loner, he ends up with a huge surrogate family of crime fighters.

My second favorite is Morgan le Fay from the Arthurian legends. I find her very complex and fascinating. Depending on what version you read, she can be an evil sorceress, a benevolent healer, a wronged daughter seeking revenge, or a Celtic priestess. Or she can be all of the above at various times in her life.

I have plenty of other favorites (King Arthur, Arthur Dent, Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, Yoda, Taran from The Chronicles of Prydain, etc.). The list is far too long!
