Not every superhero is well known, at least to the general public I mean.
There are a lot of heroes out there who fans love, and the sad thing is, a lot of people
don’t even know who they are.
Now of course, some of the heroes on this list are a lot more well known then others,
but overall this list is filled with cool heroes that maybe aren’t as mainstream as
Spider-Man, Superman, etc.
Hey everyone, what’s up, welcome to Top 10 Nerd, I am your host David Raff, and today,
we are going to be talking about the Top 10 Scary Supernatural Indie Superheroes.
Now, as always, if you enjoy this video, please give it a like and subscribe to top 10 nerd.
And hit that little bell, so you never ever miss one video.
Alright, let's get started.
Number 10, Ghost.
Ghost, also known as Elisa Deerlane is a character that comes from DarkHorse comics.
Her first appearance was all the way back in 1993.
Elisa was a journalist, who ended up being killed while she was investigating the city
of Arcadia.
When she returns from the dead, she is determined to investigate and go after those responsible
for her death.
Of course, now she has some cool new abilities to help with that, which include ghost jump,
which allows her to travel long distances, flight, healing and immortality.
Number 9, Savage Dragon.
Savage Dragon comes from Image Comics and has been around since 1982.
He is a massive, green skinned alien superhero.
Turns out he was actually an emperor of an alien race.
This race of aliens were trying to find a safe new planet to call home.
Originally, he decided to wipe out humans and take over earth, but two of his officers
didn’t want that to happen, so they wiped his memories, and then replaced them with
days worth of events that had happened on earth.
They sent him down to Earth, where he had no idea who or even what he was.
He then became a hero, and his race went off to search for a new home without him.
Savage Dragon is very strong, invulnerable, has accelerated healing and is a master of
hand to hand combat.
Number 8, Bloodshot.
This one seems rather fitting, considering his first live action feature film is in theatres
now, and stars Vin Diesel.
Okay, so Bloodshot, comes from the Valiant Universe, and is an enhanced super soldier.
He became a test subject for a secret government organization where memories of his past life
were erased, and he was injected with microscopic computers called nanites.
Because of this, he has enhanced strength, agility and the ability to heal from any injury.
Making him an unstoppable killing machine.
Now, I haven’t seen the movie yet, but Valiant really wants it to work, so they can make
a cinematic universe of their own featuring a variety of characters from their universe.
Everyone wants a cinematic universe these days.
Number 7, Daimon Hellstrom.
Daimon Hellstrom, is potentially going to be a lot more well known soon, since he has
a series coming out on Hulu.
I say potentially because with a lot of the Marvel Television division shutting down,
it's very likely that this series might not happen.
Similar to what happened to the Ghost Rider hulu series.
Ok, so Daimon the son of Victoria Hellstrom, and the demon lord Satan.
The Hellstrom family has worshipped the devil for a long time.
Victoria then decided to have a child with Satan.
She also ran a cult, called the Chapel of Dresden.
Now, Daimon wasn’t aware of his parentage for a long time, but he did find out eventually.
So he began to harness his abilities and became very powerful.
After years of training, he took on the hero name of Hellstorm.
He became the ruler of hell, but still fights for good, but has kind of gone back and forth
between good and evil sometimes.
But he is mostly good.
He has strength, spell casting, durability, and can cast hellfire from his trident.
Number 6, Swamp Thing.
I feel like Swamp Thing was about to become a fairly well known superhero.
But unfortunately, that didn’t really happen because his show got cancelled.
And not because it was bad, it was a weird behind the scenes money issue.
It got amazing reviews as well.
It’s really sad.
But maybe one day he will truly have his time to shine.
Swamp Thing, also known as Alec Holland, was a scientist, who along with his wife Linda,
also a scientist, were working on a formula that would help solve the world's food shortage
problem.
Unfortunately, thugs break into his lab and set up a bomb to sabotage the formula.
Alec was knocked out, but woke up right as the bomb went off.
He was on fire and covered in his bio-formula, so he ran out to the swamp, but in doing so,
it ended up not only affecting him, but the plant life in the swamp.
He now has abilities that include, being able to communicate and control all forms of plant
life, enhanced strength, immortality, can change his size, and create copies of himself
that only he can control.
Number 5, Witchblade.
Sara Pezzini was a police detective, who came in contact with an ancient magical artifact
called, The Witchblade, as she was dying.
Now, Sara before Witchblade, Sara was just a normal human, but while harnessing the power
of Witchblade, it opens up a wide array of abilities.
Such as shapeshifting weapons or armor, super strength, invulnerability, pyrokinesis, and
healing.
She is also a very skilled fighter, thanks to her many years of training as a police
officer.
So that along with her abilities, makes her very powerful and formidable foe.
Number 4, Jackie Estacado.
Jackie Estacado, is an anti hero, who harnesses the power of, The Darkness.
He is a hitman who ended up using this power to make a name for himself.
He is by no means innocent, but he does go after primarily bad people.
I did say he was an anti hero.
While harnessing the power of the darkness, Jackie can create anything he desires.
What that means is that he can create solid objects like armor or weapons.
He can also create demon creatures, has enhanced strength, and a certain level of invulnerability.
The catch is, The Darkness can only function when there is no light, so if it comes in
contact with any source of light, it's powerless.
Number 3, The Phantom Stranger.
The Phantom Stranger comes from the DC Universe and is... a very very mysterious being.
So mysterious that his true origins have never been teachinally been revealed.
He has had multiple origins over the years.
Crazy, right?
Let’s go over some of them.
One of his origins is that he is a fallen angel who decided to stay neutral during Lucifer's
rebellion against Heaven.
Another was that he was a citizen during biblical time.
During that time, he commited suicide, but the Angels didn’t allow it and instead stopped
him from entering the afterlife, and forced him walk the earth for eterinity, which is
where he found his calling.
To turn away humanity from evil.
Another theory is that he is a remnant of a dead universe.
And another is that he was a man named Isaac who had a wife and daughter, around the time
where Jesus would have been a child.
When the king sent out soldiers to kill all young male kids, in an attempt to kill Jesus.
Unfortunately, some of the casualties were his wife and son.
He then blamed Jesus for this.
He tried to take revenge on him, and because of this, Jesus sent him to walk the earth
until Doomsday.
So, whatever the origin, The Phantom Stranger is very powerful.
His powers include immortality, spell casting, illusion casting, reality manipulation, and
teleportation.
Number 2, Spawn.
Spawn, oh Spawn.
He’s such a cool character.
Here’s hoping the new reboot that is in production works out.
Although, it’s having some behind the scenes issues.
Jamie Foxx was originally announced to play him, but it sounds like that may have fallen
through.
So we’ll see what happens.
Okay so Spawn’s real name is Al Simmons.
Al was a highly trained mercenary.
One day he was on a mission, and murdered by his friend Bruce Stinson.
Al is sent to hell and in order to see his wife Wanda one more time, he makes a deal.
He returns to earth as a Hellspawn.
He’s now forced to do the bidding of a demon from hell.
He takes on very dangerous people and creatures.
He has strength, durability, and this amazing symbiotic suit, which not only protects him,
but makes him look so cool.
Number 1, Hellboy.
Hellboy, who is becoming more well known, thanks to a few big screen appearances, was
a demonic baby found in 1944 by US soldiers.
He was summoned from hell to summon the apocalypse, but fortunately, the group that found him
wasn't into that sort of thing.
As Hellboy got older, he went on to work for the BPRD, The Bureau for Paranormal Research
and Defense.
An organization, whose purpose is to study and protect the world from any type of supernatural
threat, and Hellboy is a vital member of that team.
Hellboy is very enhanced, which helps a lot when the company is dealing with an array
of scary and powerful creatures.
Trust me, you don’t want to get on his bad side.
He has enhanced strength, accelerated healing, ages slowly and has his right hand of doom.
He also never leaves home without his handgun, The Good Samaritan.
