If that's the case, and I think there's a pretty good argument that it is, then I'd have to say that I'd have to go with Superman.

 Those are the 10,000 turkey questions:
 
 1) Why does someone who's invulnerable to something feel the need to dodge it?
 
 2) and Why would anybody, after seeing the marvelous;-) effect of their weapons, continue to use them?
 
 See the "The Prince of Space" and any of the "Godzilla" Reader Reviews(IABBBBM) for a relevant theme.
