    Default The Best "New" DC characters?

    So, was just wondering which characters from-let's say the last 20 years have been the most successful? Or most popular? And why do you think that is?

    #1 Damian Wayne - the character is kinda everywhere and his success made DC decide that every superhero should have kids.

    #2 Jaime Reyes - getting his own movie, though he’s not very prominent on the comics side of things

    Yeah, I think this is objectively correct list.

    Now I'm wondering if I shouldn't have put a number to it. Like Top 10?

    Damian Wayne, definitely. Though nobody at DC has had the same success Miles Morales and Kamala Khan had at Marvel. Damian's still waiting for a movie appearance despite debuting before those two, though it has at least been announced.

    Damian did at least have animated movie appearances.

    Besides, has Dick Grayson had all that many movie appearances in the past twenty years?
    He was seen in the 1997 movie Batman & Robin, but that was twenty-six years ago.

    In addition to those already mentioned, I think you could maybe add the Ryan Choi Atom, Miss Martian, and maybe Cyclone to this list. Though not always used frequently, they all have big followings in the books and have played decent-sized roles in other media.

    I don't think he counts as popular, but I really liked Bunker. I wish they would use him more often.

    Miss Martian is a good choice. Her exposure coming mostly from the YOUNG JUSTICE animated series.
    The Atom Ryan Choi? Eh, maybe?
    Well, a version of Cyclone was in the Black Adam movie so there's that.

    Has he been used anywhere else besides the New 52 Teen Titans?
