There's people who consider the STAR WARS characters to be...
... super-heroes and super-villains. Do you agree?

shareI have never heard of anyone who says these characters are superheroes. Same for Mortal Kombat and Dragon Ball Z (you could just put it all in one post, you know).

Of course. Star Wars is a epic superhero saga.
share1) I posted them separately because they feel like different topics. Not to mention that they have different groups of fans that would answer.
2) Have you read the threads? I ask because I've gotten replies from people saying "Yes" (including this thread).
Darth Vader could definitely defeat or hold his own against most superheroes. Starlord is basically Han Solo with better tech. But by this logic, James Bond and Jason Bourne are superheroes too.

There is an old argument Vader is Dr. Doom.
Beyond that, SW is very much inspired by pulp fiction stuff like John Carter & Buck Rogers so if Conan the Barbarian is seen as a comic book movie character, so are the SW gang.
As someone who saw SW in theater when it came out, I don't have a problem accepting I'm a fantasy fangirl. Superman, Conan, SW-why can't I like them all & see they ate fantasy characters?
