Marvel Vs Dc (Or Other) - LeatherfaceFan07 - 07-22-2010
Well with SDCC this week and all of the Superhero movies that are being promoted at it (Captain America, Thor, Avenger, Green Lantern, etc.), I thought I'd ask you fellow NIGHTOWLers which Universe you'd prefer and why.
I myself am a Marvel fan too and thru. The only DC characters I care about are Batman and most recently the Green Lantern. I thought think Marvel's Universe has the better heroes and most importantly for me the better villains. I love those Spider-Man villains. No other franchise has better ones in my opinion. I've always felt most things about the DCU were just kind of...generic?

Yeah, Batman is the only good DC character IMO. Marvel just has a better bunch of Super Hero's.

Always been a diehard Marvel fan.
So many fantastic characters & villains to choose from.
DC only really has Batman & Supes who are both huge characters.
Batman's villains are fantastic but Superman's are not.

I have collected and read comics since 1987 or 88. I have always been a huge Marvel guy. With the exception for a few DC titles like Batman,Justice and good ol Captain A.
But over the past for years my mainstay comics are with Image. The Walking dead,Astounding wolfman,Chew,The Brit,Invincible and i cant forget my new fav Haunt!
As you can see by the Image titles above I'm a huge Robert Kirkman fan! Hes writing is simply amazing. Some of you who don't read comics my know R. Kirkman from creating the Marvel zombies phenomenon.
I do still read Amazing Spiderman, Wolverine origins, and Batman but thats about it. If any of you have something you would highly recommend please do. I just simply got jaded with all the crossovers and all the other crap.
So after all that rambling i choose other. IMAGE!! :biggrin:

Make Mine Marvel.
(I bet that phrase throws some of you back...)
As for why, I think that Marvel has always had the more human characters. Other than Batman obviously, DC superheroes were always some type of non-human like Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, etc....
I always love the human approach...

Marvel has always been my favorite.
I like DC too but Marvel is where it's at!
I think the Batman movies have been the best films from comics> As much as i like Marvel. I haven't been to crazy about the films but Batman was just awesome!!!!

I keep up with comics pretty heavy. Traditionally Ive been a Marvel guy. Stan Lee is the father of modern mythology.. but these days Im split 50/50 I read Spiderman, Hulk and Avengers on the Marvel side and On DC I read Batman, JLA and Green Lantern. Lately DC has had better "Large: scale story arcs like "52" and "Blackest Night"
"Marvel Civil War" was the best Marvel universe arc in a while

DC all the way for me.
Outside of Spiderman, all my fave comic characters fall under DC. Batman, Deadman, The Spectre, Swamp Thing, Sandman, Green Arrow... I could go on.

I don't follow the comics anymore but i collect the statues like a crazed animal.
I prefer the Marvel Universe, it has sooo many awesome characters. DC has great characters, just not enough.
