International time difference ?
Yay Buffy, 13 is one of my very favourite prime numbers under 20 with a 1 in. Not my absolute favourite obviously but it's near the top. Ish.
And yeah, these articles pretty much write themselves which makes them cheap page hits (they're similar to those clip-based talking heads TV shows like "I Love the Middle 3 months of 1987" or "Greatest Ever Car Chases ... in A Pre-2005 Hybrid Car"). Not an insane list as these things go even if the Top 10 are pretty much the usual suspects (and Buffy's definitely a superhero - secret identity isn't a hard and fast rule and anyway, she more or less had one for the first 2+ seasons). Plus, any list with The Tick right next to John Constantine has to get extra points for weirdly random quirkiness.

We were apparently controversial for picking Tim Burton's Batman over Batman Begins.
People do love these lists.

And there are just as many JLA members as there are X-Men. Nice to see that team books are most popular for both companies.

I thought it was odd they were all "Buffy has no secret identity, but I *guessss* we'll let you off this one time . . .", and then right down the page was Hellboy. Surely Vampire Slayer was as secret as Big Red Thing/guy.
