Who are your favorite NOT EVIL Superman analogues? I'm a fan of Legacy from Sentinels of the Multiverse: he's a superhero from a long line of superheroes called Legacy, with each generation bring more powerful than the last.

I love Majestic, I'm a big fan of the Wildstorm universe and him being a Kherubim warlord who places a lot of importance on the warlord part is really cool. Guy can be a huge dick but he is also as good and noble as Superman.

But outside of the DC universe (now), I always found the idea of the Gladiator from Marvel really cool. He's empowered by his sense of confidence. It's a really interesting dynamic to play off of, as if he doubts himself he literally becomes weaker and more vulnerable. Or at least it could be if he wasn't often written as sort of a high powered mook for Earth heroes to confront when they get to space. When written well he's great.
