Marvel definitely. The only DC superhero I like is batman though he's not as awesome as Spider-man, Iron Man and Thor. Not even close !

Dc easily



The flash vs X-men.... that is the question.

I want to say I think both are good.



Marvel.

I just find the characters way more interesting and entertaning than DC's. The only DC character I like is Batman along with his villians.



Marvel but I do really like Batman.

Marvel. Super Man, Batman and Wonderwoman just never appealed to me, and I haven't really looked that much into DC's other heroes. I also really don't like how many line wide reboots they did. Is this the third or fourth incarnation of the DC Universe?

Honestly, a big part of it is about distribution. I used to be a big comic book reader way back, but I fell out of it. I got back into it with Marvel Unlimited, a netflix like app that let me catch up on pretty much everything. If DC had something like that, I'd be likely to check it out, and maybe I'd find out that DC is better than I imagined. But, without something like that, I don't really have an inclination to start reading DC.


5th ultimately

Crisis on Infinite Earths gave us the second

Infinite Crisis gave us the third

Flashpoint gave us the 4th

Convergence gave us this 5th

I am liking what they have done post Convergence so far.  A lot more freedom from an artistic standpoint than they had in more recent years. 


Wait... seriously?  Wasn't Crisis in like 2005?  And Flashpoint in like 2010?  Do they really reboot every five years?



I'm a DC fan. I like em both, though. My love for DC started with Super Friends, the live action Wonder Woman, and Adam West's Batman. My love for Marvel began with Secret Wars in the 80's.

I know a fuck ton about both and love, love, LOVE their epic crossover stories. Haven't bought much of either since the beginning of New 52 and AvX, though m. The hobby just got too expensive.



What's DC? Oh yeah, they make Batman. Do they make more comics?

I have swung back and forth and honestly I love both and have major issues with both.

To me DC is both old school and yet oddly darker at times. They still have one foot firmly in golden age, and yet have had some real dark story lines for characters.

Marvel was initially the more modern one making heroes more human which appealed to me for a long time, but sometimes I like a break for moody somber tone I found too often.

In comics or source material I honestly fell out with comics because it became too complex, too expensive, too confusing and often I didn't care for changes or ideas introduced. At $3-5 an issue I like to know what is going on care about the characters.

In cartoons/animation my whole experience is 90s with a few recent films thrown in. To me DC wins, but Marvel has been solid. Batman animated series is still my favorite to go back and watch.

In films DC way back dominated, but they sat still while Marvel made tons of moves to mixed results. Once the MCU got going the gap grew despite enjoying the Nolan Batman films. I hope DC has success in coming years as I have an Ant-Man film, but still waiting on Flash to finally get one.

In video games, it really is Arkham Batman games and everything else for me. Shame as would love more quality super hero games, but most are just okay like Beenox's Spider-Man titles.

Over all it is really hard to say as I enjoy aspects of both and want both companies to succeed, but I also get really annoyed with decisions made in handling their universes and characters. Chief among them is killing characters off, bringing them back, or replacing them with less likable versions.
