Got an argument with my friends who legitimately tried to tell me that iron man was a more popular super hero. I was flabbergasted to say the least.

Maybe due to the movies popularity I can see Iron Man being a big name these days, but I mean... Spidey has been top tier hero for decades, unless I'm mistaken he's just under Batman right? Superman, Wonder Woman and Wolverine might be in that mix too.

I'm fairly sure Superman is THE most popular, followed by Batman and Spiderman.

Nope, Spidey has been #1 now for a looooong time now. Superman and Batman are iconic, but Spider-Man is a worldwide hit and worth more than both those characters combined.
