I don't think I've read a single completed manga except for Rurouni Kenshin, Trigun, Battle Royale, Black Cat, Sanctuary and Parasyte (one shots don't count).
I'm looking for any manga that has been completed, the only criteria is that it has to have an awesome male protagonist (also, no yaoi, incest, gender-benders, etc.). I also really prefer seinen, but I love Bleach (well, up to the end SS arc at least, then it became just "like")
Thanks.

Try Black Cat or Flame of Recca. There are more but those two came to mind first  .

I forgot about Black Cat, didn't like Flame of Recca anime. I also forgot Sanctuary which was awesome.

I would consider Pretty Face a gender bender.
GTO is one shounen that comes to mind.
If your looking for seinen, good ones I've read are Planetes, Monster, and Jiraishin although they lack the awesome male protagonist.

Seriously, the manga is much better than the anime. And gets so much better in the later parts.
I'm just warning you over using the anime to decide with. There have been a good number of very good manga adapted to horribly failed anime.

SLAM DUNK!!!!!
and GTO, and if you can tolerate it Ichi the Killer (it can be pretty graphic and disturbing)
Hope that helps

I second SLAM DUNK!
and also Moeyo Pen - you will literally laugh your brains out, I did, hope the sequel gets scanlated in the near future
I just noticed I haven't read that many completed manga myself, most of the completed ones I've read are shounen romance which have a lame protagonist

this topic(amazing male protag) was almost made for berserk .....if it was only complete (which debately may never happen...)
but anyway, 20th century boys is among my favorites and i think you might like what the lead male turns into towards last 1/3(though almost all the characters are beyond amazing)

Trigun - you'll love it. Even better than anime and that says something.
Belmonde le VisiteuR if you want something silly with impressive art and, well... intriguing characters. The male protagonist is, well... different.
