DC/Marvel Comics, live action or animated versions

Who is consistently portrayed at a certain level, and never has low showings or outliers?

If you can list multiple tiers (according to comicvine), that would be appreciated

Basically, who would be your best street leveler, mid tier, high tier, etc...

Characters with fewer appearances tend to be more consistent. Heroes job less than villains, so there is that.

Guts

Alita

@brucerogers:

do you mind listing a few by tier?

@webinyoureye11: Eh I could, but all the characters I extensively read about have outlier feats to their name lol.

Creator-owned characters in creator-owned universes.

That’s cool, who has the fewest? If you don’t mind lol

What tier would you categorize them by?

@webinyoureye11: Guts is a street leveler

Alita is far above that.

@webinyoureye11: Thanos comes to mind. He has his share of bad feats but not as much as the other characters I have in mind. The same applies to high end ones.

Thanos is very consistent for the most part in terms of power levels, Doctor Strange comes to mind as well. Daredevil does have his fair share of outliers but he's consistent in terms of skills.

MCU Cap

@worldofthunder: No you're thinking of MCU Nobu.

Normal people I guess

Rhino lol

Toad, equally useless in almost every incarnation

Thanos isn't really consistent, just fortunate that every few years Jim Starlin comes along and retcons out any bad showings.

DCEU is consistently disappointing.

Unnecessarily hostile posts aside, Daredevil seems pretty consistent to me.

Limited run characters that appear in Managa/anime or short stories. Character with a single author/writer usually are quite consistent.

@morpheus_ said:

That's right, I just need him to fix Bendis's stuff so that he's cleared up everything and Thanos can go back to being very consistent.

OT: Characters with few appearances or under one author.

Most Live-Action Characters.

I want what you're all smoking.

Wildstorm characters, for the most part, are pretty consistent

Backlash, Taboo, Grifter, Maul... Warblade unfortunately isnt really.

Cyberforce has a certain degree of consistency to it (Velocity tends to be a little inconsistent) but Ripclaw, Stryker, Ballistic, and Heatwave are all consistent

Thanos was pretty terrible in recent years and even in the past it was Starlin who applied some top degree damage control to course correct his precious pet. Which he actually did pretty well from what I can remember, but still.

From what I've heard, there will be no damage control from him anymore tho. He said he's done with Marvel.

Thor is very consistent with his slow reflexes.

Jokes aside, Post-crisis Supergirl, Hal Jordan.

DCEU Superman is quite consistent in his power level.

Most toaru characters. Fate franchise is more so compatibility than outright power(not counting Gilgamesh) mostly accelerator. I feel for fate the so called “inconsistencies” have a readily plausible explanation

Video game characters.

Although it is only because the statistics of the characters are predetermined for a Gameplay.

CW characters are the most consistent by far

Any versions of the TMNT
