Least Safe Secret Lair/Base? Most Safe? Most attacked? Least?

[Cleric of Hell’s Brigade]

We talk a lot about various heroes and characters throughout fiction, but often their lairs/hideouts/hangouts/secret bases/homes don’t get a lot of buzz.

Well, let’s change that a bit. This was inspired by a conversation I had with my nephew about which got attacked more, Titans Tower, X-Mansion, Hall of Justice, or another target. So, with that set up, let’s ask some questions and see some feats!


-Which location has the crappiest defenses?

-Which location has been attacked the most?

-Which has the best defenses or never seems to get attacked?

-Been broken into the most?

-Been stolen from the most?

-Been snuck into the most?

-Your own questions and answers!

Let’s have a bit of fun, here.

[The Drunkard Kid]

Most Inexplicable: How Blonde Parker managed to build an entire Spider-Cave facility under Aunt May's House in Into The Spider-Verse. Sure, he's probably got the money for it in that timeline, but the logistics of doing so while also still maintaining a secret identity are just mind boggling.

[Beadle]

Hank Pym’s pocket universe headquarters for the Mighty Avengers was fairly resilient, I think.

It’s a bit like Mordenkainen’s Magnificent Mansion with superheroes.

[Jackalope89]

The Gargoyle's castle. Literally on top of their main antagonist's home. Granted, Xanatos later comes to be in their debt to due to saving his kid, but still.

[StupidMoniker]

The Watchtower is pretty secure, being in space and all when most of their enemies are quite earthbound.

[Oswin]

can't really go wrong with pocket dimensions as for secure secret bases
i think most all secret bases has had someone break in or out of, that's usually a plot in most fiction hehe

[The MunchKING]

Either S.N.E.A.K. has some kind of double-bluff reverse psychology head games going on, or this has to be hilariously unsecure.

It being S.N.E.A.K. I could honestly see it going either way.

[Nik Hasta]

The Monarch's Cocoon from Venture Brothers gets infiltrated/destroyed a lot.

Also, the same could be said of the Venture Compound itself.

[Godzilla2099]

I always remember Castle Greyskull getting attacked nearly every episode.

[Arsenal]

Batcave seems pretty secure all things considered. How many times has the Bat Cave been compromised over the years?

The X-mansion seems the least secure. It tends to be oddly vulnerable to attack given how much firepower resides there on your average day.

[big_adventure]

Peter Parker's apartment back in the 80's and 90's is the most secure - by virtue of it's exceptional crappiness, it's never compromised at all, at least not until Venom stalks Petey there, but that's cheating.

The X-Mansion used to get asploded so often that it's effectively a meme, in comic.

The Baxter Building too, stuff blew up there on a bi-weekly basis.

The Fortress of Solitude was somewhat secure, given how much garbage is lying around and how little security there usually is.
