Do you prefer Marvel or DC?
Tired of the same Munday stuff?
Okay first off I have no loyalty towards companies tbh. They mess up and I’m gone. It’s not like they’re a person. I do not have to forgive them. And both Marvel and DC have just meSSED UP SO MUCH IT HURTS. But god I am a total comic book nerd and I can’t stay away. They both treat their female characters not great. Neither have a life-action movie for just their women. So they’re both on my shit list tbh.
But DC has Wonder Woman and I love her. She was my childhood hero. They also have Starfire who helped me a lot with accepting “the power of my emotions” when I was younger because I used to have issues with my femininity (thought my Dad wanted a boy. long story short tried to be one most of childhood). Plus at least DC has an animated movie for Wonder Woman. I’m pretty sure Marvel doesn’t even have that much.
Plus I am just in love with the Flash. He was my male childhood role-model. And I love Batman and Harley Quinn more than anything in this world. Sometimes Batman himself tires me but the people around him are so complex it fills me with joy??? Especially Jason Todd bro. And that movie Son Of Batman? Duuuuude. dUUUUUDE. (Even though I liked the red hood better dUUUUDE). And the shows they’ve been putting out. The movies? Meh. Though I did like “The Dark Knight” because of their Joker. But meh. But then they had the superhero teams I grew up on. tEEN TITANS AND YOUNG JUSTICE YOU KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT.
So god they win major points for that. But moving onto Marvel. X-Men bro. I watched every stupid X-men thing ever. The cartoon shows, all the movies. Read most of the comics I think?? And I’ve watched X-Men Evolution a thousand times. I love the X-men three million times more than I love the justice league???? Yes I do. And STORM. In a world where I, a little African girl had in general no superhero rolemodels that were of my race that were easily found I know I must have cried at least three times at the fact that I couldn’t be a superhero. That was heartbreaking for me since that was my dream as a kid. To be a superhero.
And then STORM COMES INTO MY LIFE AT THE AGE OF LET’S SAY FIVE AND I AM MORE HAPPY THAN EVER. Wonder woman was important to me but Storm was me. And she was strong and full of emotion and beauty and grace. And I just started flaunting myself after that. She’s still my hero to this day. So yeah.
And I love how Marvel makes their movies. I don’t think I’ve ever not liked a Marvel movie where for DC I’m more picky. And Marvel has Spider-man who I can not even- I love that boy so much don’t touch me. I like the newer movies much better than the old ones (especially the fucking third one gdi I will never stop trash talking it) but I still loved the movies growing up and I inhaled spider-man stuff like an addict when I was younger. I even had a blanket and a stuffy that I slept with every night. Spider-man is my comfort hero. Also I love the Avengers and Agents of Shield fills me with so muCH JOY.
So in conclusion both can be terrible but I like both equally.
