1. Conan the Cimmerian (Robert Howard's novels, Conan movies)
2. Batman (Batman comics, Batman movies) versus Wolverine (X-men and other comics, X-men movies) **Curse you, how can I pick!?! They both mean so much to me for much of the same reason... but I guess b/c Batman was the original, I could vote for him... but then again, Wolverine was one of the first X-men I was exposed to... I think I have to abstain from this one. I seriously can't choose.
3. Captain Marvel (comics)
4. Captain James T. Kirk (Star Trek)
5. Robin Hood (mythology, movies)
6. Luke Skywalker (Star Wars)
7. Buffy Summers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) versus Flash Gordon ***Gah! again with the tough choices... more curses heaped upon you. I gotta go with Gordon... Even though ms summers may have been able to beat out a few of the other picks on the list, IMO.
8. Spider-Man (comics, movies, TV shows)
9. Indiana Jones (Indiana Jones movies)
10. Superman
11. Don Quixote
12. (neither)
13. King Arthur (mythology, various novels)
14. Samwise Gamgee (Lord of the Rings)
15. Han Solo (Star Wars)
16. James Bond (movies, Ian Fleming's stories)
*The next few rounds are going to be exceptionally tough if this one was any indication.
