Batman, one of the other more common household names, is such a unique character that there really is no equal in the Marvel universe, just several Marvel characters with similar traits. And let’s be real, Superman alone would utterly destroy most of the characters in Marvel’s copycat universe. True DC and Marvel enthusiasts know that DC existed before Marvel was even a thing.Įven though Superman wasn’t the very first superhero, DC Comics’ legendary character set the way for the superhero archetype, literally. Everything about the franchise distinguishes itself from Marvel.
DC Comics definitely one-ups Marvel in so many ways: the complex and badass characters, the amazing storylines, the video games and the latest and upcoming movies.
