Egg-Lonted Man is the Worst and other mis-pronunciations.

During Crisis On Infinite Earths, I pronounced Harbinger just like it's written, with a strong 'g', like 'ringer' or 'singer' until someone told me the 'g' was pronounced like a 'j'.

[silly]

I still don't know if I read Ra's Al Ghul right.

Or his descendant in Kingdom Come. Ibx something.

LOL! That would be Ibn al Xu'ffasch (means Son of the Bat), the son of Batman(Bruce Wayne) and Talia al Ghul.

Until this century, I always pronounced Shiera or Shayera as SHEER-uh.

Wait, so is it "SHY-I-RAH"? Well, that's how I pronounce it. Dunno if it's wrong, but it sound cool. lol.

Here's one: when I first discovered Chameleon Boy back in '74, I thought it was pronounced CHAM-a-lon Boy. Later on in the year, I was watching an episode of Wild Kingdom that featured a chameleon. I put 2 and 2 together immediately.

That's cool. TV can be good.

It can also be bad. There was a character in an episode of the original Battlestar Galactica called Chameleon, but it was pronounced with a soft C to make Shameleon. So that's how I pronounced Chameleon Boy for awhile.

Still beats CHAM-a-lon Boy.

When Annihilus first appeared in Fantastic Four Annual #6, I , along with my friends who read comic books, pronounced his name as "Annie-heelus."

Only in the last couple of years have I found out the correct pronunciation is "An-nigh-ilus."

This pronunciation still sounds odd to me.
