We all know Batman is awesome, but there are plenty of other comic book characters whose games would rock just as hard as the Dark Knight's last game. Here are five comic book heroes who should get their own games - and five comic book bad guys.

So what if Marvel, DC and others bankrolled more solo games on supervillains and rising superheroes? What if you could burn down Gotham as the Joker, or gnaw on suspects as Tony Chu?

    I find the list to be rather underwhelming. There's some major heroes and villains that deserve a chance in the media spotlight, such as Daredevil, Question, some of my favorites such as Nightwing or Flash, Superman hasn't gotten a decent game in...well ever. Iron Man has been done poorly...if these characters get good treatment like the Spidey games were or the Wolverine game got, or of course, Batman, we'd be better off.

      I definitely agree with you.

      Also, a Joker game could be terrible or great. The Joker is a great character in nearly every version of Batman, but any storyline from his perspective could possibly ruin him in my opinion.

      I think they'd try to give him humanity, which I imagine would be quite difficult to pull off. I'd much rather him remain a monster like what's recently been popular in the Batman franchise.

      ...On another note....anyone else desperately want a Batman Beyond game? Or some other kind of new installment to that series?....I still miss it regularly.

    agree with the Nick Fury game.

    i wanna see a Deadpool game like crazy. it would be so ripe with 4th wall breaking opportunities, like he could constantly talk to the player as a joke and maybe to help somehow with the gameplay or plot decisions. like "press A to make me side with [insert villain here], or press B to make me kick him in the nuts and run away" LOL

    One word: Superman.

    He has to make Superman 64 up to me.

      The Superman game on the Xbox was pretty decent but is generally ignored. Also the death of Superman on Megadrive/Snes was freaking awesome.

    A venom game could be just like a Spider-Man game only the bosses would be hero's instead of villains.I mean you could already play as Venom in Ultimate SM.

    A carnage game I guess could also be like a SM game or even like Prototype.
