Say what? That's crazy. What show was that revealed in? I watched like all 250+ DBZ episodes, so I know they didn't discover that there.

I vote for Baron Max.

I second that! :grumble:

I'l probably change my mind later, but i'm thinking Gandalf or Omar Little from The Wire

When it comes to DBZ , i have always loved Goku ever since the Freeza saga and when he turned SS. Piccolo is great but he has nothing on Goku.

Leonardo di Vinci

April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519) was a prominent Italian polymath: scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, painter, sculptor, architect, musician and writer.



Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the "Renaissance man" or universal genius, a man whose seemingly infinite curiosity was equalled only by his powers of invention. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived.[2]

It is primarily as a painter that Leonardo was and is renowned. Two of his works, the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper occupy unique positions as the most famous, most reproduced and most imitated portrait and religious painting of all time, their fame approached only by Michelangelo's Creation of Adam. Leonardo's drawing of the Vitruvian Man is also iconic. Perhaps fifteen paintings survive, the small number due to his constant, and frequently disastrous, experimentation with new techniques, and his chronic procrastination.[3] Nevertheless these few works, together with his notebooks, which contain drawings, scientific diagrams, and his thoughts on the nature of painting, comprise an unmatched contribution to later generations of artists.

As an engineer, Leonardo conceived ideas vastly ahead of his own time, conceptualising a helicopter, a tank, concentrated solar power, a calculator, and the double hull, and outlining a rudimentary theory of plate tectonics. Relatively few of his designs were constructed or even feasible during his lifetime,[4] but some of his smaller inventions such as an automated bobbin winder and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire entered the world of manufacturing unheralded. As a scientist, he greatly advanced the state of knowledge in the fields of anatomy, civil engineering, optics, and hydrodynamics.

Hey Panda

David tennant or Tom Baker

but actually i was looking more at the charcter of doctor who, and what he stands for and how he overcomes his opponents, not through weapons and killing but through using his brain, sonic scre-driver and tardis of course. And then does even expect a thank you for saving entire peoples, races and planets. I also like the way he gets things wrong but trying to do too much good.

I guess I'll add more of my favorites to the thread since I have nothing else to do...
Sojiro(though his wiki sucks) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C4%93ta_Sojiro)
Sir Isaac Newton (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Newton)
Riku (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riku_%28Kingdom_Hearts%29)
Selene(form Stephen Pressfield's The Last of the Amazon)
Edit:Bugsy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugsy_Siegel)

A lot of the posters on this thread seem to have difficulty grasping the distinction between singular and plural.

My favourite character is Hannibal Lecter, MD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannibal_Lecter).
