The Difference Between DC and Marvel

LOL! rascalking wrote this funny list of the difference between DC and Marvel. Let’s just say Marvel slayed DC in this conversation! But in all seriousness, both are great. This is meant as a joke in good humor, just poking fun at them due to Marvel’s undeniable success. Both comics and movies have their merits, so don’t take this too seriously! 😉 Also this is an older meme, obviously both companies have made strides with female led movies like Wonder Woman and Black Widow, etc.

  1. So…DC is not the same as Marvel. So what? If everyone is expected to embrace the same things, you have neither diversity nor individualism.

    1. So you support white supremacy because their thinking doesn’t follow the norm, and therefore is diverse?
      Marvel wants to show that anyone can be a hero. DC wants to pander to white America. DC can still tell good stories, but they will never be as great as Marvel. Because to be great you have to take risks, and DC isn’t willing to do that.
      And their Rotten Tomato score proves this every time.

  2. Well, Marvel is still profiting from a really good phase around the infinity stones. Everything after that is just garbage and more agenda than entertainment. Less and less people will watch it. The new guardian of the Galaxy movie is the last Marvel movie that peeks a little interest for me. I was especially annoyed by the new Thor “comedy” movie. Ragnarok was a already too silly but this one is really bad.

    1. Yep, that agenda. You know, that agenda of accepting everyone (except bigots, I guess) and saying that everyone with a heroic heart can be heroic.

      Such a terrible agenda.

      1. So you’re saying you enjoy paying to watch virtue-signalling, agenda-pushing propaganda, as long as its inclusionary, and the message is one you personally approve of, regardless of whether it’s actually any good?

        NPC moment, it truly is.

        1. Imagine using “NPC” to describe someone and pretending it doesn’t out you as the alt-right media absorber you are.

          1. What does NPC even mean in this context. To me it only means non player character, but that doesn’t make sense here. You know what? Never mind. I would rather remain blissfully unaware of as much alt-right bs as possible.
            I will say though, I personally very much enjoy most of the new marvel content. Though I’ll admit the Thor movie was just okay.

          2. Imagine posting about NPCs thinking your insulting someone… and not really knowing what a NPC is so you’re just making yourself look ridiculous.

  3. As a little kid in the ’60s I read Superman and Batman because that’s what the candy-store-on-the-way-to-school carried. (NYC, walked to school of course.) Then one summer I went to camp and one of the counselors had spent fully half of his trunk space on Marvel comics. It was a revelation. Heroes with issues and relationships, characters who really lived in real places, secrets (including identities) with consequences. DC was living in the past, Marvel was living in the real world.

    1. Yeah. It is kind of interesting looking at the way that DC often feels like it is behind Marvel.

      I think Stan Lee’s great contribution was to make Fantastic Four characters have character weaknesses rather than super weaknesses to rocks or the color yellow.
