Dude, I'm not saying they
would! What I'm saying is that there are a lot more A-list Marvel characters that are instantly recognizable to the masses than there are A-list DC characters. Whether that's because of the mass amount of movies Marvel has put out over the last several years, or because Marvel only "came into it's own" in the last couple decades, I don't know. That's not my point at all.
And I'm not going to argue any points over this, because to be perfectly honest, I really don't care about comics at all, as most of them tend to be pointless drivel anyways. I read what I like, and avoid what I dislike. I don't know anything about comic history, or anything like that, so I'm probably not the one to be making points on this.
But
at this point in time, it seems to me that the general feeling among a lot of people is that DC really is a B next to Marvel's A. And I'm not even saying this as a fan of either companies, because I haven't read any series from either one in a long long time, I'm just basing this on how I see things, and how my many many pop-culture leeching friends tend to react.
