User blog comment:ZTM1234/Marvel Vs. Dc/@comment-3012197-20110211200056

I remember watching a documentary on the evolution of comics a while back and they made one point that I really agree with. Marvel sets itself aside from DC because they make a different kind of hero. Most of DCs characters are real boyscouts fighting for truth justice and the american way, were as with Marvel, many of their hereos are damaged. They have dark pasts and walk that grey line between good and bad. It makes them more interesting in my opinion, although both are good.
