I don't know. It sort of goes to Hectate's point that most Side Kicks were weaker than the main character.

But Tonto was just about useless. He always had to get rescued.

Didn't he put his ear to the ground and tell the Lone Ranger that the bad guys were coming?

Any kind of superhero should assume they're always coming, so that's not much of a feat.

OK. I agree with you, Tonto was close to useless, but no more useless than Robin.

I disagree. I'm no Robin fan, but he could throw down and didn't get his ass kicked as frequently as Tonto.

I say Batman's Robin was the best sidekick of all time... the original Target Boy. Brightly attired bait to attract the attention nefarious neerdowells and. if necessary, take a bullet for Batman.

I also suspect that Robin would soap Batman up in the shower after a long day of crime fighting.... just to loosen tight muscles of course.

Well Bowmann is my sidekick, I don't know if he's the best of all time though?

Are you saying that Burt Ward was tougher than Jay Silverheels.

Although not quite a sidekick, Starrman was an acceptable bitch way back when.

Eric Cantona............his kung foo kick was nearly as good as his side kick
