They're so similar that it's only fair to judge the storylines based on the writer. A person who claims that they hate DC but love Marvel isn't exactly being consistent given Jack Kirby's contributions to DC.

Yeah, being an adult really sucks, and having adult problems is bad. It sounds just like DC.

I kinda wonder if the DCCU is gonna reboot as an R-rated series. DC seems intent on being edgy even though it's beyond passe at this point. But making an R-rated live action film universe would be upping the ante. There's Deadpool, but he's self-contained. Making R-rated versions of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman (no nudity) might give them a successful niche audience.

People act like the R rating is the kiss of death, but action movies and horror movies made bank back in the day. And DC's most stalwart fans are the guys who act like Batman is all about prostitutes, pedophiles, faces getting cut off, and so forth.

Maybe we will see a restricted DC universe.

It's the other way around. Marvel was designed from the beginning to feature more realistic problems

DC was the one where people are perfect

Marvel's whole gimmick to make them different was that the heroes were flawed and had to deal with real life problems

The only DC character that I can relate to is Batman. My parents didn't die in an alley but my mom totally never understood me. I was too real for her.

She was like, "Doug, try and be home by 11:30 tonight" and I was all "You can't control me! I am the night!" Just like Batman.

I never got why people want superheroes to be relatable. They're better when they represent an extreme, like Superman being the ultimate paragon and the Joker being the ultimate nutcase. I mean, why clearly design them to be extremes and give them not-extreme characteristics?

Plus, it's ridiculous anyway. This guy flies and shoots lasers from his eyes. That guy climbs walls and senses incoming threats he can't see or hear. But you know, that second guy has girlfriend problems so he's more relatable.

Why would I want to watch the adventures of an emotionless being who always does the right thing no matter what?

I'm serious. That's like the whole appeal: to watch extreme personalities interact.

Are you referring to the DC Universe as a whole? One specific version?
