I haven't seen the new Avengers movie but I can without question say this. As bad as Thor and Hulk and Ironman think they are, the baddest cartoon dude there ever was is Racer X.
Speed Racer was bad. He kicked some ass. Who could forget the epic brawl he had with Ton Blaggard's strong man "Tiny"? I certainly do like it was yesterday. Pops Racer, who was a former member of the East Side Grunters and Groaners Wrestling Club couldn't whip Tiny.
Racer X could have though.
He could drive better than Speed or Dale Earnhardt or Richard Petty.
He was a part time secret agent till he decided to quit racing and go full time. Not because he wanted to be a full time secret agent. But because he wanted to see his little brother Speed be the best racer in the world. As long as Racer X was racing Speed would have never been better than second best.
No doubt John Shaft was a bad mother fu$ker. Bruce Lee was the baddest man that ever lived. But in the cartoon world, no man or woman is even in the same league of bad as Racer X.

Did Bruce Lee really win fights? Today's MMA champions primarily box and wrestle.
The Bruce Lee Style artists don't do well against MMA champions.
They're not Bruce Lee.
They're not Bruce Lee.
I am not sure Bruce Lee was either, which was what inspired the question.
"in the cartoon world, no man or woman is even in the same league of bad as Racer X."
Yeah, but you deliberately rigged the category to leave out Ein the Corgi.
You're lucky Bruce Lee is dead and Raer X is a artoon character or they both would have kicked your ass for being disrespectful of their badness John.
WTF is Ein the Corgi?
He looks a little Clutch Cargoesque.......Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, mind you.
You're playing with fire Will. Don't mess with Racer X. You'll never see him coming.
"WTF is Ein the Corgi?"
Oh ye of little knowledge, Ein the Corgi is perhaps the greatest character in the entire history of anime:

That mutt wouldn't dare piss on Racer X's hubcaps.
Beware what you say about the Corgi, and remember the frightening bumper sticker:
My Corgi Will Bite Your Honor Student's Ankles
I have no fear of corgis but Green Eagles scare hell out of me.
I concede.
Hey Truth - Never heard of Racer X but I did like the Avengers.
Choked me up when they would show them all in the same frame.
And I loved the very last shot at the end of the credits.
Take care - Truth.
I don't know who Racer X is either but watched Speed Racer religiously when I got home from school in the 60s! Brings back memories...
