    Default Where are all the bald superheroes???

    Ask this same question over on the Marvel threads. Seems kind of discriminatory; the only bald heroes i can recall are Charles Xavier and martian manhunter. what's going on with that??? Seems like a preponderence of villains are bald

    It does seem that way with so many DC villains being bald:


    Alkyone
    Black Manta
    Blockbuster(Roland)
    Dr. Doog(Golden Age Starman villain)
    Dr. Manhattan
    Dr. Sivana
    Hugo Strange
    Jinx
    Lex Luthor
    Tobias Whale

    Here's my theory. People generally want their superheroes to be sexy and youthful, which baldness isn't associated with either traits.

    Oddly enough, and this sort of disproves my theory, but there are more action heroes who are bald than superheroes.

    Agent 47 from Hitman
    King Mob from the Invisibles
    Dashiell Bad Horse from Scalped
    Bruce Willis in every movie post him losing hair

    I've heard the next version of JSA will feature gay, bald minorities exclusively. Wait until you see the new Amazing Man.

    Not to turn this into a race thing but here we go! In all honesty, black dudes can pull off the bald head better than white dudes. There's only a few cool looking (Grant Morrison ) white dudes that are bald.

    A lot of African American superheroes are bald, and a few Alien superheroes as well but I can't think of any heroes that are non- alien and non - black that are bald.

    yeah, we need more bald white guys. Who do you think could fit the bill?
    - I feel like it might suit Hawkman, for some reason
    -Green Arrow is shown to go bald as an old man in future stories like Kingdom Come and DKR, maybe it's time his hair start to thin?
    -Red Hood: is his hair black? is it ginger? Screw it, just shave it all.
    -I am one of the few who actually liked Robin's look in the Arkham games. Though that would break the "all Robins must look like mini Bruces" rule.
    -Some of the JSAers should be really old when they come back, if keeping with WW2 thing. Maybe a few are bald?

    I wish artists would draw John Stewart bald. He pulled off the bald look pretty well in justice league unlimited.

    Deathstroke and Damian Wayne (Kid version) Would look very good with the bald look.

    That was a darn good movie. I know people probably hate it because... well, Batgod.

    But ever since I saw it I've been haunted by Owlman's last words: "It doesn't matter."

    I don't know why but it just lingers in my head still.

    And RIP McDuffie. I miss you so much! ;_;
