Dc And Marvel Universe


Recommended Posts

^Marvel has a better imagination than DC?

 

I am more of a Marvel-fan than a DC-fan.. I have to say yes, but DC fans would always remind us that some of Marvel's characters are loosely based on DC's Golden Age characters..

 

Look at Spiderman, Peter Parker is a photographer of the Daily Bugle, his first love was the secretary of his publisher (Betty Brant).. And then look at DC's Superman, Clark Kent is a reporter for the Daily Planet and his love interest is a co-worker named Lois Lane.. DC has Supes while Marvel has Spidey..

 

IMO, Marvel had a better Silver Age, and a Bronze Age than DC.. Even the 1980's, I was more interested in Marvel.. But DC also had its own nice storylines like the Watchmen, and Crisis on Infinite Earths.. Marvel's success is embedded in Stan Lee's stories of the 1960's.. Without Stan Lee's ideas, Marvel would not be where it is today.. Stan Lee may have based his characters on some DC's characters, but he did something that really turned heads.. Ano ito? Cool storylines..

 

But during the 1990's and of today, I believe that Marvel and DC share equal footing on the "imagination" business.. For one, writers and artists jump ship on a regular basis.. Minsan nasa Marvel si Jeph Loeb, minsan nasa DC siya.. Same with Neil Gaiman.. About two years ago, Gaiman wrote the highly acclaimed Eternals mini-series, tapos ngayon, he is tasked by DC to do Batman..

 

Its really nice to get into comics nowadays, because of the "jump-shipping" of the writers and artists.. I can't wait for Geoff Johns to do some Marvel work..

Was checking the reviews at ign.com.. I saw Daredevil #112.. And I got surprised.. Is this out already? I checked CO's list, wala pa dun.. I got my comics in Filbars Riverbanks today, and I did not see any Daredevil #112 in their list.. Or am I mistaken?

@khumpleetist/norby: Thanks mga bros.. Medyo ayoko ko kasing naghahabol sa mga comics ko eh.. There was a mix-up nga with my comics today at CO eh.. Its a good thing, Ate Ning, was there to look at my reservations.. Naayos naman.. Akala ko hindi ako mabibigyan ng the Crossed #1.. Yun pa naman ang #1 sa list ko for this week.. hahaha...

I overlooked Mighty Avengers #19.. Haay! Sampung comics na naman ito for this week.. I even feel bad that I decided not to get Zenescope's The Chronicles of Dr. Herbert West series, coz I am anticipating a lot of comics after October..

 

Yung New Krypton at Kingdom Come na storyline sa JSA, pamatay na eh..

 

I also did not get the Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen Special kahit preview siya of some sorts sa New Krypton.. New Krypton Special #1 is the first part and I feel that the Olsen Special is just a way for DC to milk more money from us.. hahaha.. Nice try DC! FYI, the New Krypton Special is due next week (October 22)..
