Where would DC be without Superman and Batman?

Your opinion.

Where would comic books be without Superman? is a better question..

Superman and Batman mean to DC like what Spider-man and the X-men mean to Marvel.

Wow OB1-adobe! Well after S & B i like Aquaman and Flash#1, the rest sucks. Is Wonder Woman invulnerable?

Where would DC, or any other comic company for that matter, be if Superman and Batman had NEVER existed?

Other characters woul've been made and filled the postion. Not to bash Supes or anything.

Comics probably wouldn't be as well known and popular without Supes/Bats though....

speculating on possible past time lines, the most annoying of all possible comments...

Namor would reign supreme?

The four biggest superheroes on 1940 were Superman, Batman, Namor and Human Torch (I).

Would they be more popular if Batman and Superman hadn't existed?

doubt it

Probably where it is now but with different main heroes.

Current DC characters that would have still existed even without Superman/Batman...

Captain Marvel (Probably would be on Superman's place currently?)
Green Latern
Plastic Man
Green Latern
Atom
Dr. Mid-Nite (Batman's place?)
Johnny Thunder

These two great characters love each other and for a reason, they are like brothers. Bruce(batman) is his father image as well as Kal.

That did not make sense...

Don't panic, I meant friends 🙂 We are competitive if our father is great.

In a scenerio were there is NO Superman or Batman in the DC universe. Most likely the Justice League would be under the leadership of Wonder Woman. Follow by the Flash, GL, Aquaman, and Hawkman.

Definitely unlikely.

Captain Marvel comes from Superman. If Superman wouldn't of existed, then neither would Shazzam.

To say "DC without Batman and Superman", is to add "along with Capt. Marvel" too.

You're right - Supes did come first.

But DC did add some of Cap's elements to Supes after they had bought him.

For example - before DC bought Cap, Supes only 'jumped' really really really far....

It may have seemed that he was flying, but they didn't make it official until they had accquired Cap - who was already known to fly.

Without superman no one might have come up with the idea of making superhero comics, and during the war and the downtime of comics in the 40s, 50s etc would maybe have destroyed the comics forever. It was after all the superheros that saved the comic industry.
