I've been reading for a long time, and I've tried to give the DCU a chance, but it just seems too pristine to me. Like it was all kittens farting rainbows. Just kind of irritated me. Between Superman and The Flash being able to pretty much prevent any crime happening the second someone thought about it. Then you have the god that is Batman. I could just never get into it.
I love Marvel..But DCU is much more Iconic, The Trinity that is Superman, Wonderwoman and Batman has no equal comparison to anything on Earth-616. Like a rollercoaster both have had ups and downs in Story telling over the years but currently. I'm finding I'm enjoying the stories in DCU over Marvel. The stuff Geoff Johns is doing in Green Lantern: Blackest Night and Brightest Day is genius. Grant Morrison on Batman is storytelling to perfection. DC maybe Pristine, but the stories are currently fresh and exciting were as over in Marvels backyard (after the Fall of Osborn) they seem a little stale and trite. Their current "Heroic" age is kinda a let down.
And speaking of Kittens and Rainbows, have you not seen the cover of X
-Force #1 (OK it's puppies) but How awesomely cute is that!
Not to get down on Marvel; If and When they get a MMO, I'm more than sure i'll be pre-ordering that as well until then I'll be trying DC universe online, so drop on by and say "Hi"
