From the the first time I've read the various Superman books right up to this point, I find that Bizzaro is one of the most useless character's in the heroes gallery of Villains and has no decernable purpose in furthering a story plot; the latest issue of Superman/Batman is a testament of what I am talking about. If anybody would like to dispute this claim - be my guest.

He's an extremely formidable Superman foe. He's been used in a lot of excellent stories, but is usually a henchman due to his lack of intelligence.

That's not an example at all. It's a short scene showing that Batzarro is working on a case. It's a subplot that hasn't been developed at all yet.

As most of you all know by now, I HATE Superman (all you big blue fans, put the torches and pitch-forks away), but I do have a soft spot for Bizarro just based on the fact that he's hillarious. The way he looks, talks, and acts. I've always been a fan of villians who were the exact opposite of thier hero counter parts (an evil twin if you will). Everyone of them from Bizarro to Fake-Er is all right in my book.

I think visually he's a great character, I even have the Ross' designed figure, and it just stands out!!! the backward S and the purpleish color scheme is just a great image!!!
And i believe he's up there in the danger level because he's so powerfull, and he's a fun read because of his intelligence (or lack of), i really don't care for supe's villians, but Bizarro is an A in a sea of D's

Come on, who else of Supes' villains is an A?? (besides the obvious ones)

Darkseid, Manchester Black when he was alive, Doomsday and Gog when not written horribly, Zod, himself.

Personally, I like Bizarro. He's just what he needs to be, no more, no less. A tragic figure, most of the time, at least how he's written nowadays. :p
