Stan Lee spoke about this at length earlier. The biggest appeal of Spider-Man was the full body covering because you couldn't identity his race/ethnicity while he was wearing it so it was a big hit with minority communities while DC was still peddling white power.I know that Spider-Man is from 1962. It's a somewhat hard era to read on both sides, but the Marvel stuff of that decade outclasses DC most of the time. That to me just says how forward-thinking Stan Lee and his artists were right out of the gate. DC felt like a post-war fantasy land whereas Marvel reflected the real world far more. The NYC setting also helps a lot. --- Go Leafs Go http://www.last.fm/user/Disposableher0 ... Copied to Clipboard! |
