I think it would be cool if we tried and document some of our favorite heroes' personal preferences when it comes to things like music, food, movies, literature, etc.
For example, we know from The Secret of Barry Allen that Barry was a fan of Abbot and Costello.
(I actually just watched that skit for the first time...lol.)
I also remember reading this exchange from Hawk and Dove:
Hawk: Soooo...You dig Nine Inch Nails?
Dove: Puh-leez. Got any Guns 'n' Roses?
Hawk: Those crypto-fascists? Why don't I just play the Horst Wessel song? I got Incredible String Band, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins...
Dove: I get it -- you're the last hippie.
Hawk: Ouch! Hey, lady -- I got a work ethic! So what's a nice girl like you doing in the Air Force?
We also know that, at least nowadays, Aquaman (counter-intuitively) likes his Fish & Chips:

Superman's favourite Metallica album is '..And Justice For All'.

He's having a laugh though. Metallica's finest hour has always been 'Master Of Puppets'....

The only thing Convergence let me know for sure: Dick Grayson favours Earl Grey tea.

Martian Manhunter was very fond of Oreo cookies.
I find it hard to believe Aquaman eats fish, given his psychic connection to all sea life. It seems more likely he would eat anything raised on land, as he can't hear it scream.

Of the many smoke brands, DC's resident smoker John Constantine is fondest of Silk Cut. They're what almost killed him, not all the ghosts and demons.
Batman's favorite Woody Allen movie, as disclosed in Starman.

Heh. In the past 45 years, I have seen it hundreds of time. A&C, as is the case with Barry, are my favorite comedy team, bar none. Originally Posted by Bogotazo

Would Arthur and Mera owning a dog make them dog people? Actually, I wonder where Aquadog is right now...

Blue Beetle (Ted Kord) is a "Trekkie". He's also fond the Three Stooges, Abbott and Costello, and Laurel and Hardy. We also know that he's read some Russian literature, specifically Fyodor Dostoyevsky's "The Brothers Karamozov".

Prior to Birthright, Superman's favorite food was Beef Bourguignon with Ketchup. After Birthright, it was retconned that Superman was a vegetarian.

J'onn watches Sailor Moon.
Ollie liks his chili extra hot.
Batman likes Woody Allen movies and has a soft spot for rereading children's books of his youth.
Barry Allen loves comics.Patsy Walker on TV! Patsy Walker in new comics! Patsy Walker in your brain! And Jessica Jones is the new Nancy! (Oh, and read the Comics Cube.)
