Where are all the bald superheroes???

[NohWonn]

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

Aaggghh!

Kill it! Kill it with fire!

[Güicho]

My guess he was somewhat modeled on Yul Brynner's as Rameses

[Dr. Poison]

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.

There are at least three shaved heads in those "Fast and Furious" movies as I recall (from seeing the ads...)

The kid Green Lantern from the Batman Beyond JLA is bald...

I. Am. Right. Here.

Huh! Martian manhunter is bald. I wonder what martians with hair will look like.

In the pre-Crisis comics, all the green Martian men were bald and all the green Martian women had hair.
