I know I've said this before in a similar thread: my theory is these characters just aren't that great. Captain America is the best one, but an android who's on fire and a mutant Atlantean anti-hero? I just don't think they are good enough to have broken through the other genres out there.

I've got to disagree with you.

Captain America clearly resonates with people today just as well as he did back in the 40's.

The Torch's current incarnation is a major figure in Marvel's universe. Granted, he's no longer a flaming android, but the character of a "human torch", when presented properly, clearly has fan appeal.

I think the biggest problem with Subby is that they've never really found a way to use him correctly. The character himself is a strong one.
