Forbes, famous for its list of the America’s Richest People and the World’s Richest People, now has its official list of America’s Richest Fictional People.
Is your favorite fictional gazillionaire on there? Whilst I may quibble with the “American” description of a few of them, it’s actually a darned good list. Aside from Jed Clampett (who the editors say was under consideration, but his net worth wasn’t quite up to snuff), I can’t think of any significant omissions. (Robin Masters, mentioned in the reader comments, is obviously British, not American.)
And somebody’s clearly been reading their comic books lately.

Keen! But where’s Tony Stark?
(“Iron Man, Iron Man…Does whatever an iron can!”)
Well, Tony’s fortune has been up and down so much over time, it’s always hard to tell.
