I am likely an outlier when it comes to comic book character appreciation. Although I have favorites, I appreciate both major and minor characters alike UNLESS they are exceptionally oddball and/or goofy like the Mr. Mxyzptlk, Impossible Man, Howard the Duck, Wonder Twins, etc. gag-me-with-a-spoon.But is that based on the comic book versions or the movie/TV depictions of the characters? Personally, I was never into Superman, too overpowered, so I know I'm biased versus the movies. For me, a Superman movie has to work harder to win me over versus an X-Men movie which I will be more receptive.
I enjoyed overpowered Superman and the post-Crisis of Infinite Earths depowered Superman. I am a huge Wolverine fan but still highly fond of minor not household mutant characters like Blink also. It is my view of comic book characters that explains why I have high expectations for all of their movie adaptations no matter what characters are involved in the films.
