10 Underrated Superheroes Of All Time

http://www.collegeokplease.com/techtainment/10-underrated-superheroes-of-all-time/525
Check ‘em out….
Captain America


Yeah He’s got two movies and heads the Avengers and all, but Cap wasn’t always this beloved. For a while in the 90’s he languished in comic book hell. There was terrible movie in 1992 that dented Cap’s already bruised reputation but it was only in the 2000’s when noir writer Ed Brubaker took over writing duties did Cap get a modern day overhaul.
Lobo


More of an antihero than a full-blown hero, Lobo was always the metalhead’s superhero. The last of his Czarnian race, he roams the star ways, screaming obscenities on his trusty spacebike. As an intergalactic bounty hunter, he’s had his fare share of run in’s with the who’s who of the DC universe, but always remains an antihero at heart.
Silver Surfer


The Silver Surfer is powerful as all hell but is rarely used in comic book lore. The remaining survivor of the planet Zenn-La, the Surfer serves as the herald of the planet devouring Galactus. His role as the herald is to announce to the denizens of a particular planet that their home is doomed ‘cuz Galactus is coming to consume it. Oh yeah!
Daredevil


Blind? Check. Bad childhood? Check. Horrible love life? Check. Daredevil is the most human of the superheroes out there. Throughout his run he’s been portrayed as the everyman’s superhero. Always loyal to Hell’s Kitchen and always protecting its citizens. Yeah, he’s got his own film and all but I’ve wiped that travesty from my memory. I suggest you do the same.
Blue Beetle


Blue Beetle is the thinking slob’s hero. An overweight genius, Ted Kord built his entire crime-fighting arsenal by himself. Considered one of the smartest people in the DC universe, he’s been a part of the Justice League, the Justice Society and many other teams.
Apollo/Midnighter


The two powerhouses of The Authority, Apollo and the Midnighter are the kind of heroes that snap necks and ask questions later. Their violent methods might bring them into conflict with various governments but they always get the job done. Bloody or not.
Jack Hawksmoor


The leader of The Authority, Jack Hawksmoor is the god of all cities. He thrives on pollution and feeds on sewage. As a child he was abducted by humans from the future and implanted with insane alien tech that has turned him into something not quite human. His leadership qualities are only matched by his tenacity and battle smarts.
The Immortal Iron Fist


The first Kung Fu superhero, Iron Fist was a joke in the 70’s and only after comic book guru Matt Fraction took over writing duties did he transform Iron First into a badass kung fubutt kicker. Although he plays second fiddle to powerhouse Luke Cage, Iron Fist holds his own against the big baddies of the Marvel Universe.
Plastic Man


Batman calls him the most powerful individual he’s ever seen or encountered. That’s enough on any damn resume but Plastic man is truly terrifyingly powerful. He can mold his body to any shape possible. He is mostly inorganic and is probably immortal as well. He can turn as hard as the hardest plastic known to man or be as soft as putty. Like I said, truly terrifying.
Aquaman


Yep, the king of the oceans is here. People rip on Aquaman too much. I mean, he lives at the bottom of the ocean. Can you imagine the water pressure? Most humans would be crushed before they even got close. Plus he controls the entire ocean. Every fish, whale, crab etcetc. Think about that for a second.

10 Things We Hope to See in 2015

http://www.collegeokplease.com/life-style/10-things-we-hope-to-see-in-2015/500
1. More People Volunteering for Social Causes

With how the world needs more helping hands especially in India where a lot of people are hungry, go for activities wherein it involves helping in whatever way to alleviate the problem. No matter how you volunteer for a cause, it will be appreciated.
2. Clean Politics

Politics has managed to earn a very bad name and if 2015 becomes the year when politicians play by the book, then it would be a delight for the voters and the citizens of the country.
3. Being Healthy and Fit

The fitness craze has taken the country by storm and the trend would only escalate to newer heights in 2015. Taking care of one’s self by eating healthy food and indulging in activities that will keep high blood pressure at bay are a welcome treat in 2015. Green and leafy vegetables should be taken in almost every meal to balance the spices in the main dishes served every day. Daily exercises that include cardio and toning the muscles will definitely put your body in shape.
4. A new time zone for the North-Eastern Region

India has kept the same time zone for the whole country despite the fact that the North-Eastern zone experiences daylight earlier and dusk earlier as well. If the Indian government sanctions a new time zone for the Northeastern zone, then people can save a lot of money in electrical charges.
5. Family is King

The most important thing to have is a loving family, beside you. And the best part is that more and more people are realizing the virtues of family. Enjoy every minute with them and make sure you set aside some time for recreation with your spouse especially the children. Take trips even small ones locally. Frequent trips to the park or your favorite mall or to the grocery are already time well spent with your family.
6. More Female-Oriented Movies

2014 started with a bang for the female-oriented movies in Bollywood with “Mary Kom” and “Mardaani”. And we sincerely hope that the trend continues in 2015 as well.
7. Salman Khan Getting Married

The eternal bachelor of Bollywood has been single for too long now. Lets hope in 2015, wedding bells ring for the star and he settles down with his lady love, so that he doesn't have to lie anymore on Karan’s show!
8. Delhi-NCR becoming more safe for women

The last few years have just retaliated the fact that Delhi-NCR is one of the most unsafe regions for women. It would be a landmark step for the female population of this country if in 2015, steps are taken to make the national capital as safe as possible for women. It is a daunting task but it is not impossible!
9. Peace on the Indo-Pak Border

Since Independence, there has been constant fighting along the border, which has escalated the tensions of both the countries. Let us hope that in 2015, both India and Pakistan can find a peaceful and amicable solution to the problem and the mindless blood-shedding can stop for once and for all.
10. Self Improvement

People are very savvy these days and they are flocking to self-improvement classes and courses in order to make themselves better human beings.Soft skills and self-help courses are all set to roost in 2015 and lets hope that they help to give rise to a generation, who is mature and at peace with themselves.
