Walking Dead probably had some characters that made it big.

[Iduno]

Apparently, there are new nonbinary heroes in Marvel's New Warriors called Safespace and Snowflake and they thought it would be good representation.
How did they think this was a good idea?

They're being made by straight white men. How do you think?

Well...

The artist is LGBTQ themselves. Presumably the creator thought it was good as an ironic sort of thing.

Well, one of us heard wrong. I can't find any information either way, but who knows. Looks like he pissed off neo-nazis (always a good thing) because he's Jewish, but that's a different thing.

I feel like the WTF board passed over the mention of Snowflame and his cocaine-based powerset too quickly.

So here he is.

I... Well then.

...DC? New movie soon? Please?

[scriver]

Snowflake should be his rebellious teenage hero daugther

Tengoku No Owan something
One of the characters has magic cocaine in her blood and will literally die without it

Tengoku no Owari (天国の終わり) isn't a long name. This is the longest book title i could find:

"Nuiage! Nugashite? Kisekaeru!! Kanojo ga Koukou Debut ni Shippai shite Hikikomoritokashita no de, Ore ga Fashion wo Coordinate suru Koto ni" (縫い上げ！脱がして？着せかえる!! 彼女が高校デビューに失敗して引きこもりと化したので、俺が青春〈ファッション〉をコーディネートすることに。)

(EDIT: note that for Japanese novels the length of the title is roughly inversely proportional to how good the book is. They got to the point that the titles are now the entire plot synopsis: "I got reincarnated as a cat and gained superpowers, now I protect the city from rat monsters" (fakeexample) ).

ok. Fair enough, at the time of posting I didn’t remember the word thst stsrted with T. That is a long book title

Google says that this long you found, translated to English, is “ Sewing! Remove me? Kisekae! ! Because the lantern was soaked in the air, I decided to give it a shot.”

[Reelya]

How ... did you manage to translate it so bad. I put that into Google Translate myself and got this:

"Sew up! Take it off? Dress up !! She failed to make her high school debut and became a withdrawal, so I decided to coordinate youth <fashion>"

Which is much closer to the actual intended title.

[Naturegirl1999]

Detect language said Japanese, and it said that, what language was it?

[Yoink]

Hellboy's only 27 years old!

Oh heck! That's a good example! I've never read too much Hellboy but he definitely got "big". Big enough to be played by goddamn Ron Perlman, even.   
Also, he had a crossover with The Goon, so clearly that means The Goon is also big-time. Yay.   

I feel like I should re-iterate that none of the characters I mentioned were superheroes. Marvel and DC =/= the comics industry. Most all of their modern books suck big buckets of Kryptonite sewage. Publishers like Image, Darkhorse and the small-timers are where it's at.
