Sep 15, 2012
Yes, you are correct. I left out Superman and Batman. But for a very clear reason. They are superhero characters created by a different brand of comic books named DC Comics. This is a strictly Marvel brand quiz. If you would like me to make a DC hero quiz, I'd be glad.

Level 17
Apr 19, 2014
Actually Thor hasn't used that persona in a very, very long time and technically even then it wasn't his real name, just someone he was attached to. Thor's real name IS Thor so the quiz creator is correct in leaving it how it is.

kinda like Superman in that way. Superman is who he really is (though his name is Kal-El, but, still, he's Superman)... Clark Kent is his disguise.
+1
Level 76
Feb 23, 2018
That depends very heavily on what version of Superman you're going by. Post-Crisis, it was generally shown that Clark was the real person and Superman was the mask. On the '90s show Lois and Clark, for instance, he said at one point "Superman is what I can do. Clark is who I am."

Now Batman, on the other hand, is frequently potrayed as really thinking of himself as Batman first, and puts on "Bruce Wayne" for the rest of the world.

+2
Level 82
Jun 16, 2018
I don't mean in terms of his personality or job, I mean Superman is the super-powered confident heroic son of Krypton, while Clark Kent is pretending to be a fragile somewhat fumbling nerdy human. Of course it's a disguise.

Luke Cage is actually called powerman not Luke Cage. Change it. His secret identity is Luke Cage
+2
Level 17

Luke Cage hasn't used Power man in a very very long time and the way that he's depicted nowadays he uses his real name. Not his superhero name. The quiz creator is correct to leave it how it is

Nick is by no means a superhero. He's just the annoying director of SHIELD. I wish there were more girls represented in this quiz though. There are plenty of girls in the Marvel universe, especially super or mutated girls.

Aug 19, 2015
All in all a fun quiz, although Moon Knight totally stumped me ;)

Since I'm kinda uptight about this sort of thing, I noticed there are a few changes that could be made to improve this quiz. Thor does have an alter ego, "Donald Blake," first of all. Secondly, Carol Danvers is now called "Captain Marvel" so that should also be an acceptable answer for her superhero name. Thirdly, I'm pretty sure Jean Grey went by "Phoenix" as her superhero name at some point during her existence, so could you make that an acceptable superhero name for her? Thanks!

+1
Level 17
Aug 18, 2017
Thor hasn't used "Donald Blake" in a very long time and even then it wasn't his real name. Just someone he was attached to. The quiz creator is correct in leaving it the way it is. Also Jean Grey's superhero name was always "Marvel Girl". If there is a change to her, that should be it. I agree with you about Captain Marvel, however.
+1
Level 76
Sep 7, 2021
Jean has indeed used "Phoenix" as her code name as well. See, for instance, this page from Uncanny X-Men #382 where the narration refers to her as "Jean Grey. Also known as Phoenix."

Nov 17, 2017
Sometimes its Romanoff.
+1
Level 88
Sep 15, 2021
I'm not an authority on Slavic names, but my understanding is that Russian patronyms are gendered, and if a patronymic surname ends in a consonant then an "A" is added at the end to make it feminine. So a female of the Romanoff (or Romanov) family would Romanova.

Beginning to think the person who made this quiz abandoned it. People have been, justifiably, asking for Captain Marvel to be added as an acceptable answer for Carol Danvers for over two years now and it hasn't been fixed. The fact that it hasn't been fixed is incredibly ridiculous seeing as how there's even a big-budget MCU movie coming out titled Captain Marvel with Brie Larson playing Carol Danvers. This seems to be a pretty popular quiz, too. It's a shame that the creator chooses not to edit it.

Quite disturbing as they translated Iceman into Iceberg in french and Nightcrawler into Diablo so I get the guys but didn't find them in English...

I haven't any clue they did as Diablo is not even a french name...

Interesting. "Iceberg" kinda cracks me up. Diablo is actually the name of a Fantastic Four villian.

Nightcrawler is Harlekein (harlekin/harlequin) in dutch. Been doing some research (not done yet or I ll forget to comment haha) But the harlequin was a devil character and has a very long history, though it is hard to pinpoint the exact origin as it has been used in various (medieval and older) pieces.

So it being a devil demon makes sense, I guess the used diablo since "THE devil"(in french) is kind of already taken... plus diablo is allready used in other thing for demonlike characters, and I guess just saying demon was too generic.

But still no reason not to stick with nightcrawler, or the french literal translation of that.

I dig this quiz but I have a quibble: Hawkeye is a badass, but he doesn't actually have superhuman eyesight, or any super powers, except for when he's using Pym particles to become Giant Man.

Two years later, I have an additional quibble: Rogue can steal powers from any superhero, not just mutants. Her absorption of Carol Danvers's powers is a prime example.

I really don't mean to be a jerk, but this quiz just highlights how ridiculous the superhero movies are.

But I understand that some of them tell good stories, I just wish it weren't so fantastic.

+1
Level 88
Sep 15, 2021
To each their own, but I'm not sure I understand your objection... If you feel they are unrealistic, okay, but some are more egregiously "fantastic" than others, and the better films are usually internally consistent. And superhero movies are hardly the only genre requiring some suspension of disbelief, although if you also dislike film series like Harry Potter and Star Wars, then fair enough.
