DC vs Marvel There’s an age old battle amongst us “nerds” over who is better in the comic book world, DC Comics or Marvel Comics? Everyone has their own opinions on who has the better stories and characters, and which comes out with the better movies and shows, but when you break it down each one has different qualities that make it better. Marvel and DC are the most well-known comic creators in the world. These companies kick-started the superhero/supervillain franchise. Marvel comics was founded

created a comic book company named, “Detective Comics” and shortly after this renamed the company to, “DC comics” DC comics when on to create iconic characters like, Batman, Superman, The Flash, and many more which are still notable to this day. Shortly after this in the in the Year 1939 a man named Martin Goodman started his own comic book company as well. He named it, “Marvel comics” you may recognize the name from the name from the multimillion dollar films they make based on Marvel’s comic book.

DC Comics as a media and entertainment company has rich roots in American pop culture since. DC owns some of the most iconic and enduring characters in the past century. In 1938 DC published the first Superman story in Action Comics no. 1. The massive success of the entirety of the superhero genre can be traced back to this first story. DC holds the centerpieces of the Golden Age of comics; like Batman (1939) and Wonder Woman (1941) (DeForest). Since 1969, DC was purchased by Warner Brothers and

Marvel Comics and DC Comics were both founded in the 1930’s as, naturally, comic book publishers. Today they form 70% of the comic book market.

Diversity in Comics Over the years, comic books have reflected what was happening in the world around us. Hot topics and issues have taken place in these fantasy worlds.

I believe Superman is the most tremendous DC Comics superhero out of all of them. First, he is a alien from a planet that has been destroyed. Saying that he is very comparable to The Doctor from Doctor Who, because there is only two of them left of their entire race. Both of these heroes never use violence.

To start we need to look at the original speedster Jay Garrick. Jay was the first Flash and the only one to not wear a mask. In his original comic appearance he was the only Flash in existence but when DC Comics came out with Barry Allen he
