Best Buds: 8 Pairs of Lifelong Super Friends

Good friends are important, and best buds even more so. Someone who has your back, and who will be there when the chips are down. And of course, a heavily super powered friend that shares your own values, motivations, and love for extremely tight uniforms has to be pretty much the best thing ever.

There have been a lot of great pairings over the years in the comic book world, from best friends to friendly rivals. With more than a few friends taking each other on in the theaters next year with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Captain America: Civil War, it’s important to take stock of these friendships that have developed on-screen and in the comics for years. Sure, they’re fighting now, but chances are after the battle they’ll all go and grab a few beers and bro out over the battle.

There are quite a few more great friendships among the superhero community, buddies that have been through the thick and the thin, fought each other more times than they could count, and have even survived the ‘finality’ of death (at least until the inevitable rebirth). Let’s take a look at some Superhero Best Buds that have survived the test of time.

Valiant Entertainment Is Creating Their Own Cinematic Universe

As Marvel continues to expand their cinematic universe with DC looking to catch up shortly, the next big comic company to make the move to the big screen will be the Valiant universe.

It was recently revealed that Valiant Entertainment has partnered up with DMG Entertainment, who co-produced Iron Man 3 with Marvel Studios. Valiant’s deal with the Chinese company includes an eight-figure equity investment, along with a nine-figure production deal that will see the Valiant universe joining Marvel and DC on TV and in theaters. We’ve been hearing rumors of a few Valiant films already in production, like Archer & Armstrong and Bloodshot, and this deal only further confirms that we will be seeing a new comic powerhouse in Hollywood.
