Comics: Marvel for me. A large part of the reason is because of MDCU, all the comics I want for 5 bucks a month.
Movies: Marvel. With the exception of TDK, DC doesn't have much for me.
Games: this one comes down to: Ultimate Alliance vs Batman.
And batman was not only a great comic book game, it was a great Game all around... really the only comic game that has done that IMO.... MUA was great but it was no Batman.
Animation: DC hands down. JLU is my all time favorite cartoon.
I'm waiting for Disney to produce something as awesome as X-Men TAS again. Crosses fingers.
Comics: Marvel's mainstream series are all around better IMO as I find its characters and mithos much more compelling, specially the x-verse. DC does have a much better 'adult' seal, as Vertigo blows Max out of the water. DC has also put lot more superb graphic novels that have made history out there.
Movies: Overall Marvel. DC has the single best franchise, which is batman.
animation: DC
Comics: Ever, Marvel, right now, DC. The writing quality has dipped sharply at Marvel, and X-Men are the worst they've been in 30 years.
Games: Ever, Marvel, right now, DC. DC has had good Batman games in the past, but they were never going to be able to compete with Ultimate Alliance and X-Men Legends. Then Arkham came along.
Animation: Ever, Marvel, right now, DC. As good as Marvel's shows were in the 90s, DC has Bruce Timm to thank for taking over, add to that their movies and they win.
Movies: Marvel. Nolan's trilogy is good, no doubt, but Marvel's movies always felt more faithful to their characters (bar X-Men, because **** Bryan Singer), and there were just more of them too.
Comics: admittedly, I'm relatively new to comics. I personally like Marvel better. But DC Vertigo is a very very close 2nd.
Movies: Overall..i say Marvel. Someone mentioned earlier that Batman is the single best franchise and i definitely agree with that.
Games: I don't play games too much anymore (i grew up on sega genesis and nintendo) and during my time, X-men genesis series was pretty dope. Capcom vs Marvel is pretty awesome too. And the original arcade beat'em-up game was fun as hell! Haven't play Arkham Asylum yet and by the look of things in this thread, i probably should check it out lol.
Animation: Batman animated series was da shizznits. JLU was unfukwitable too. Ill go with DC.

Your kidding right?Just in the games I have for my PS2 and PS 3 there are 6 Spiderman games, 3 Ironman games, 2 marvel super hero squad, Marvel avengers alliance, Marvel nemesis, Xmen legends I/II/III, Marvel Ult alliance, Marvel v Capcom I/II, Thor, Three Hulk games, Captain America, at least 6 Xmen games (if you include origins Wolverine), Marvel heroes war of the gems.
My WII list would only be half that but no games are replicated. Then there are the few dozen others I've borrowed from friends.
T have even half that number of DC games I'd have to go back as far as my nintendo 64
Wait, there's an xmen legends 3???

I meant two that were not garbage.
But yeah, Marvel has the numbers. I completely forgot about Spider-man 1 and 2.
