I was asking PR for his opinion being that he made the statement.
assuming for a moment marvel bought the actual rights to superman, if you don't think he'd immediately become marvel's top hero, as he is dc's, you're fooling yourself imo. imagine the hype that would cause?? it be the biggest thing in comics history and marvel would cash in on superman in every way possible. he'd absolutely be top dog.

I said the same thing about two weeks ago and his followers chased me with torches. He simply wouldn't be anything special in Marvel. Cap is the boy scout, Superman would be extra muscle.

I'm telling you he absolutely would not.

Since most people don't know the difference between Marvel and DC, they could use his already established name and get even more money, he would be everywhere, movies, animated tv shows and comics.

They'd cash in by putting him in multiple books and teams like they do with other popular heroes like Spider-man and Wolverine, but I highly doubt they would start jobbing their entire roster of heroes and villains.
Originally posted by leonidasI don't know maybe ten or more years ago I would agree. I'm not saying Superman still isn't an Icon and a money maker but I think with the introduction of the MCU Marvel character's stock have grown especially Iron Man.

They definitely would make him one of the top heroes for sure but I don't see Marvel just tossing everything they've had aside to make Superman the top guy in their business model.
Of course they would push him initially they would have to.
