Now, some people might argue that Shrek lives in a swamp, but they can ever make themselves believe that he is not an encouraging guy at all?
In fact, he would go to extreme lengths to fight for his love which makes him far more attractive, endearing, and loyal than most human beings.
Needless to say, his popularity was duly acknowledged when he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles in 2010.

4. The Hulk
After one of Dr. Bruce Banner’s experiments with gamma rays went wrong, he couldn’t help but transform into the phenomenal Hulk.
However, he had the proficiency to turn into the well-built superhero only when he was fuming in anger. The greenest of the green characters, he first made an appearance in the debut issue of The Incredible Hulk during the late 1960s.
Since then, he has been a part of several cartoons, live-action TV series, and various Marvel feature films. That being said, it is important to note that The Hulk’s level of strength is directly proportional to his level of wrath.
5. The Mask
The Mask was a spectacular big-screen spectacle that showed a mild-mannered introvert (played by Jim Carrey) transform into the owner of the loudest zoot suit ever.
How does he manage to do that? Well, he stumbles upon a magical mask! When donning “The Mask”, the character can be seen in a yellow zoot suit.
However, don’t be appalled to find his tongue lolling out of his mouth and eyes popping out of his skull.
Now, this all may sound both scary and bizarre but it’s all fun and games once you sit to watch Carrey and his odd antics unfold.
This eccentric and maniacal green-skinned superhero ensured that The Mask turned out to be a massive success at the box office in 1994.
6. Michael Wazowski
Michael Wazowski, who is lovingly called Mike, is not only the main protagonist in Monsters, Inc. but also its prequel Monsters University.
There is no chance that you wouldn’t recognize this character if you happened to catch him abruptly on the screen.
This is because he looks as unique as possible. He is a short, lime green spherical monster with one large green eye.
Add to that the fact that he has two small horns on his head and thin arms and legs that are connected to either side of his torso. Isn’t that distinct enough?
Among the most popular green characters of all time, Mike was seen making a return as a prominent character in the series Monsters at Work.
7. Donatello
One of the four main protagonists in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and a member of the TMNT, Donatello is not only the tallest of all turtles but he is also pretty much “The Brains” of the unit.
While the Turtles truly are brilliant warriors, they could never have become the heroes that we know of today had it not been for the daring Donatello.
Trust the genius in Donatello to rub two machines together and come up with a third one. Needless to say, many of the Turtles’ heroics and success depends heavily on his unpaired mechanical ability.
8. Loki
Loki is a fictional character who has made a regular appearance in the American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
Even though one may recall that the character first appeared in Venus, the depiction that has prevailed to this very day was first seen in Journey into Mystery.
Loki is not only the adopted brother of Thor but he is also the reigning Prince of Asgard and the undisputed God of Mischief.
He has no other purpose in the world but to demolish those who come between him and the king’s crown.
Needless to mention, his lust for power tends to make him blind and oblivious to a lot of things.
This despite the fact that he has god-like strength and is a sorcerer. The green suit and cloak of this bonafide antagonist ascertained his dynamic presence on the list.
9. Buttercup
The tough-headed Buttercup is no less than a superhero. She is charming and energetic and her presence is enough to light up a room. She is the ultimate problem solver and incredibly ambitious.
Needless to say, she is often trusted with taking her foes head-on. Over time, we find her trusting her many abilities to work things out.
The girl is seldom afraid and is more than willing to push herself in most areas of her life. She does not spend a lot of time thinking before springing into action.
Therefore, once she gets involved in a fight, she believes in getting done with it before moving on to a different activity. And, yes, her signature color happens to be green.
10. The Grinch
How often have you chanced upon a person who happens to hate a festival as charming as Christmas? Well, not many we suppose.
Hence, allow us to introduce you to the grumpy, bitter, discontented, cave-dwelling, green-furred creature who goes by the name of the Grinch.
He may have a cat-like face but it is his cynical personality that makes him stay away from the rest of the civilization.
It is not shocking then to learn that this creature has spent more than 50 years of his life in seclusion on a cliff.
His only apparent ambition is to overlook the town of Whoville and despise Christmas with every fiber of his being.
11. Rex
One of the primary characters in the Disney-Pixar Toy Story franchise of feature films, Rex may come across as the most unnerving dinosaur in the toy box.
However, the often anxious green Tyrannosaurus is one of the most adorable toys that any kid would be privileged to have.
Like most individuals in the real world, Rex does not pretend to be sorted. He knows about his endless worries and insecurities and does not shy away from making the viewers aware of his issues.
Even though he is concerned about his rather soft and small roar, he always makes an effort to take a stand for the people he truly appreciates.
More importantly, he very implicitly teaches us to never judge someone based on their anger or appearance. So, no matter how complicated it sounds, we all need to be as honest and caring as Rex; especially in today’s age and a world where everybody seems to be fine with the idea of wearing a mask.
12. Gamora
Gamora is deadly; not only because she is an undeniably beautiful green-skinned member of the Guardians of the Galaxy squad but also because she is far more intelligent than one would initially think.
A fictional character in the American comic books published by Marvel Comics, she has participated in several Marvel TV cartoons over the years.
That being said, it is important for our readers to know that Gamora was found as a baby by Thanos, who raised her to be a ruthless killer.
However, after having realized that he wished to wipe out half the lives in the universe, she left him for good in her pursuit of peace and stability.
13. Perry the Platypus
Perry the Platypus may be Phineas and Ferb’s pet platypus but he is also living an exciting double life as a secret agent for O. W. C. A. (The Organization Without a Cool Acronym); a spy organization that employs animals as super spies.
Also called Perry, he was adopted by the Flynn-Fletcher family mainly because of his wall-eyed gaze, which made the folks believe that he was looking at both Phineas and Ferb at the same time.
When Perry is found in the company of his owners Phineas and Ferb, he is supposed to be undercover.
However, he can be seen trying not to do as much in order to come across as an obedient pet.
14. Oscar the Grouch
Oscar the Grouch is a green furry monster who loves to live in a trash can on Sesame Street.
He can often be seen getting indulged in an argument with the other Muppet and human characters. Like most Grouches, his only mission in life seems to be to come across as desperate and dismal to everyone he stumbles upon.
Be that as it may, Oscar is someone who is also the finest possible example of diversity. This is because he is a decent friend to most of the characters on Sesame Street despite not sharing the same perspectives as them.
That said, he may have had several pets but his closest companion is his worm, Slimey.
15. Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy, who makes an appearance in the comic books published by DC Comics, is mostly a part of the Batman stories.
She is a seductress who leaves no stone unturned to ensure that the plant life in Gotham City remains protected, no matter what the cost.
However, it is our dependable superhero Batman who can often be seen getting caught up in her schemes. Her biggest possible weapons are her botanical knowledge and toxic kisses; both of which she puts to use in her relentless attempts to take over the reins of Gotham.
Needless to say, one needs to beware of this biochemist’s lethal touch, intensified physical abilities, and supernatural control over plant life.
16. Ben 10
Benjamin Kirby “Ben” Tennyson, who is popularly known as Ben 10, is the main protagonist of the much admired Ben 10 franchise.

He could also be seen battling other aliens quite effortlessly.
17. Raphael
One of the main protagonists from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to make it to our list is Raphael. This guy is more like Batman with a shell.
We say so because he doesn’t hesitate for a second to embrace his darker side if he has to take down his fierce foes for good.
Even though Raphael is a compelling personality, he also shows his vulnerable side from time to time. However, his famous temper and relentless search for justice cover his worries about being good enough for the team.
Irrespective of what he thinks, he truly is “The Muscle” of the team.
18. Beast Boy
One of the central protagonists of the Teen Titans series, Beast Boy is not only an ex-member of the Doom Patrol but also one of the five founding members of the Teen Titans, which is a group of DC superheroes led by Robin.

Those who have witnessed the evolution of Green Goblin are familiar with his tremendous strength and speed; both of which he was able to attain at the cost of his sanity.
21. Michelangelo
The youngest and physically the smallest member of the camp, Michelangelo seems to be enthusiastic about everything. Not only does he claim to be the funniest of all Turtles but he also is the most creative.
It is not surprising then that he ended up getting nicknamed “The Wild One.” Well, cool as he may be, he isn’t usually the one who ends up getting the ultra cool weapons.
Instead, he can be seen getting stuck with nunchucks; a weapon that is notorious for allowing many children to whack themselves in the face.
Michelangelo, who is easily distracted by things, happens to be extremely fond of pizzas.

It makes little difference to him for he strives to enjoy today as if there is no tomorrow.
Needless to say, Peter Pan is both whimsical and adventurous in equal measure.
28. Mad Hatter
Mad Hatter, whose real name is Jervis Tetch, is a Batman villain who is usually seen wearing a green suit with an oversized hat.

In order to narrow down the gap, he can be seen studying and training rather diligently.

Later, the stress of his demanding job of pleasing the audience turned him into an absolute charlatan.
48. Sleepy
Sleepy is one of the seven dwarfs in Disney’s 1937 classic animated feature film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
It is not difficult to comprehend how he must have gotten his name. It’s a no-brainer that his perpetual drowsiness and lack of concern about things around him would have played a huge role in it.
Since Sleepy loves to sleep, one can find him struggling to keep awake when a highly entertaining event is taking place.
However, irrespective of his somnolence, it is evident that he is arguably the most logical of all dwarfs.
49. Luigi

Greedo, who was the son of Greedo the Elder, was a male Rodian bounty hunter who used to live in Mos Espa along with the young Anakin Skywalker and W. Wald circa 32 BBY.
Even though his beloved father was popular for his hunting skills, Greedo was not able to turn into a formidable hunter himself since he got himself killed rather easily by Han Solo in Chalmun’s Spaceport Cantina on Tatooine.
His lack of social skills made everyone around him believe that he wasn’t a very bright individual. However, he knew what being a bounty hunter would feel like by the time of the Clone Wars.
