5. Wolverine/Daken

We start the list off with a known murderer, brawler, and one of Marvels top tier characters, Wolverine, perhaps the least likely father figure in comics! In the Wolverine: Origins storyline written by Daniel Way, Wolverine discovered he had an estranged son, Daken, who was all grown up and on the hunt for his dear old dad. Daken (his real name is Akihiro but he changed it to Daken meaning bastard dog or mongrel in Japanese) is half Japanese, half Canadian, all mutant. Hes inherited his fathers abilities including the healing factor, which slows his aging (technically hes in his 60s/70s but looks 21), as well as the iconic retractable bone claws. Brainwashed into hating Wolverine by the villainous Romulus, Daken spends most of Origins trying to kill his father eventually settling into a passive hatred of him with the help of Charles Xavier who undoes some of the mental conditioning. Daken does follow in his dads footsteps, becoming the Dark Wolverine in Norman Osborns Dark Avengers lineup, a team mirroring the Avengers but made up of supervillains, though he is less like his father in that he values life very little and has no compunction to killing whoever, whenever it suits him. Daken got his own series shortly after his first appearance in 2007 though it was cancelled in 2012. Currently the characters future remains uncertain. Wolverine currently stars in numerous on-going titles, most notably Jason Aarons Wolverine and the X-Men where he is the unlikely headmaster of the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning.
Best father/son moment? Wolverine: Origins by Daniel Way (the first 5 volumes are especially good)
