I don't care if I ever see Superman again. Actually, strike that, I have no intentions of ever watching a Superman film again. He's a piece of cardboard and I feel no empathy with him whatsoever. Batman, while a much, much better character, is also similar to cardboard. He also has MUCH better opponents who often supply the personality for him.

Personality being the key reason I mostly prefer Marvel over DC's dual poster heros. Give me Spiderman and Iron Man, with all their quirks and flaws, any day of the week.

You mean Iron Man from the movies, right? Because he's not like that in the comics.

In the comics, he was at turns arrogant then humbled, conflicted then clear-headed enough to be one of the most important figures on Earth.  He was one of the few heroes that didn't act like a hero half the time.  His inner demons didn't just bother him, they beat him for years on end.  You could pick up an Iron Man comic after not reading it for a year and he would be in a totally different state psychologically speaking.  I thought that was great.
