@hchavers True. And since that introduction in the 60s that influence made it over it to DC and ever since both companies (and every other company actually) have put outstanding stuff, amongst the dreck that they also produce. You gotta find the gems. Personally, I grew up with the Super Friends on TV so I have a special affinity for those characters and the massive influence of the Christopher Reeve movie (The one true Superman, fight me.)… So if you’re making me pick one company over the others I guess I’ll pick DC. But I like what I like no matter who publishes it.

Marvel introduced superheroes that had emotions, fears, doubts, and internal struggles, heroes with whom a teenager could identify.

Never liked comics as a kid.
Certainly not as an adult.
And don’t like movies or tv shows based on comics.
