DC or Marvel?

Post Reply New Topic

I like Marvel because of all the misfits that are also superheroes.

King Chaos Ninja, I like your Xiao Xiao 3D avatar and Nomaken's animee one is good too. Which film is it from? Back to the point, I prefer Marvel but there is a DC comic hero I really like, Batman because he doesn't have any super powers at all he's just a rich guy with lots of gadgets. Now that's the way all super heroes should be.

Wow, this is a more interesting thread that I thought it would be.

Comics were one of my main interests until my mid to late 20s, then I swapped that for an interest in pulp magaiznes. So I was interested to hear that Ghosthunter used to deal in pulps. The Shadow is one of my favorite characters, I love the novels by Walter B. Gibson.

When I was younger I liked DC better than Marvel. I bought a few Marvels, X-men in particular, before they started to publish what seemed like 40 or 50 X-men titles a month. But in general it was Batman, Justice League, and any golden age reprints I could find.

But I found alternative comics when I was in high school, so I read a lot of Eclipse, First, Dark Horse, and other smaller publishing companies.

I also found British comics about this time. I still have a few hundred issues of 2000 AD with great series like Nemisis, Harry 20, Ace Trucking Co., Slaine, Judge Dread, and the early work of Alan Moore. I also have all but one issue of Warrior magazine. Good stuff there.

Oh, I also like a lot of manga. Depends on the title. Since I'm now focused on Anime, I buy much more manga than American or British comics, and not too much of that.

I don't understand most of the comics that are being put out now. I guess I've just been gone too long. I still like the old stuff though.

I like Marvel comics. They are amusing. But they are not as good as my really poorly drawn, random comics or my well drawn Gigeresque art.

I haven't read any of the comics. I'm more familiar with the adaptations, like the DCAU and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
