Along the lines of the previous "How geek are you? thread (30%, in case you were wondering), here's this one, to determine which of your favorite comic book anti-heroes you resemble. Maybe I should have posted it in the comics forum?...

My results:

SpiderYou are Spider Jerusalem.
Spider is THE journalist of the future. He smokes,he does drugs, and he kicks ass. The drugs are going to eventually kill him but not before hegets his way. And his way is the demise of thefailed American dream. Although full of hate, he cares about his city. All he wants to bringthe world is truth. Spider Jerusalem,conscience of the City. Frightening thought,but he's the only one we've got.

Considering that I actually am a reporter, and a big Hunter Thompson fan as well, this makes an odd kind of sense...

Since my magick isn't head-crushingly good, I changed my weapon answer to Fists... just to be honest.

"You are The Midnighter. The Midnighter was a secret product of the labs of Henry Bendix, part of his Stormwatch "Academy" program, the members of whom were duped into becoming Bednix's personal Stormwatch team. One of many individuals given superpowers by that ruthless personage, he lost his original identity in the process. He was transformed into "Night's Bringer of War", a living weapon designed to "hit thing's until they don't work anymore. The Midnighter automatically analyses every situation he is in as a combat scenario, his computerised senses instantaneously checking out multiple battle strategies until he has located the best one to win the fight at minimal effort. To aid him in the actual fight he has heightened reflexes and strength, and a superb knowledge of most forms of combat."

I thought for sure it was going to be Constantine, but Midnighter kicks ass too.

It's a bit difficult not to get JC, really. And it's a pretty easy quiz to swing.
