True, Spiderman hasn't been that big of a thing for many years until his popularity got a huge boost with the new Spiderman movies (even though they aren't that good), but since then he's been appearing on a billion different merchandise items and toys, and still do. And Batman is HUGE, and has been for decades!Most people, outside of geeks, won't even know who Judge Dredd is. And if they do, there's a good chance they only know him from the awful Stallone movie.Example:<a href="http://www.toysrus.co.uk/index.jsf?fh_eds=%3f&fh_view_size=10&fh_start_index=0&fh_location=%2f%2ftrus%2fen_GB%2fcategories%3C%7btrus_trus%7d%2fitemtype%3dproduct%2fbrand%3E%7bbrandspider_man%7d&fh_disable_redirect=true&media=web&fh_refsearch=spiderman" target="_blank">Spider-Man in Toys'r'Us</a><a href="http://www.toysrus.co.uk/index.jsf?fh_eds=%3f&fh_view_size=10&fh_start_index=0&fh_location=%2f%2ftrus%2fen_GB%2fcategories%3C%7btrus_trus%7d%2fitemtype%3dproduct%2f%24s%3djudge%5cu0020dredd&media=web" target="_blank">Judge Dredd in Toys'r'Us</a>Obviously, Judge Dredd isn't targeted at kids, but I still think that example more than proves the point, when it comes to sheer "popularity". <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
