2. I will give you a letter.
3. Post the names of five fictional characters whose names begin with that letter, and your thoughts on each. The characters can be from books, movies, or TV shows.
Harry Osborn: I think if there's one character in the Spiderverse I like more than Peter, it's Harry. Harry is a character that struggles with as many demons and insecurities as Peter does and it makes sense that these two characters would become best friends. In many ways, I think Harry could've easily turned out like Peter and there are a handful of times when he does try to be a hero and do the right thing. I thought it was a total shame that he's alive now because of One More Day because his death was amazing. I'm kinda torn on that idea now though because I think the Spider-Man writers are taking him where I wanted him to go and I like reading about him.
Husk: Generation X came out when I was a teenager so I gravitated a lot towards those characters. Mostly the reason I liked Paige back then was because she was hot, she was kinda nerdy, and she was from Kentucky. It sucks that a lot of writers don't use her because I think she's a good character. She has a mutant power that's unique and I think that if she found the right niche in the right title she could be as awesome as some of the top X-Men characters like Rogue for instance. Hopefully Mike Carey will use her a lot in X-Men Legacy.
Huntress: I really only started liking Helena while I was watching JLU because of her interactions with Question. Really though, she's a pretty awesome character. In a way, she's kind of like a female Batman. She comes from a wealthy family, she has no powers so she relies on gadgets, she can kick the crap out of people, and she's an orphan. The thing that separates the two is their moral codes and I think that's what makes Helena interesting.
Hiro Nakamura: Even though he was too overpowered for Heroes, I like Hiro. It's a shame that his character got screwed up along with pretty much the whole cast in the last two seasons of the show. At his heart, Hiro is a huge nerd who grew up reading comics and watching stuff like Star Trek so it makes sense that he would always dream about having powers. I really liked him in the first two seasons and I wish that show could've turned out better as a whole.
Hellion: I think it's crap what they did with Julian, having his hands get cut off and everything. It was pretty terrible and just serves to show how most of the NXM kids are background characters who get paid some lip-service every once and awhile to remind the general readership that they still exist. I think Julian had lots of potential but like the rest of the kids I don't think he's going to really go anywhere.
