Seriously tho. I've had some conversations here and there discussing comics with people. I mean when you talk about Marvel, you have to keep in mind they don't generally kill their characters. And don't give me that crap about New Mutants Doug dyin. He was a stoopid character that served no purpose other than to DIE! And most people tend to bring up Bucky. Y'know what? That was WAY before my time, so why would I wanna care about a cheeseball sidekick that got axed? On the DC front, they kill em, but they either somehow end up back in the fold, or they pass the torch. Short way to explain this is "How freakin many times are you gonna knock off and reboot Jean Grey?!" as opposed to Barry Allen, Wally West, and whoever the hell else becoming the Flash.

Storywise, I think Marvel has some ancient formulaic stone tablets carried by Moses, that they follow. Whereas DC seems to just kinda throw rubberbands, plutonium, boxes of condoms, and the general monkey wrench into things and "HOLY CRAP, DUCK!!!" Surveying the aftermath tends to breed a fresh pot, I guess. I mean, all I really want to know is. What the hell happened to Krypto? I spent my early years thinking that dog was the bomb. And then I find out that he was a load of bs shelled out (prolly by animal rights activists caught in a potmosphere). What is wrong with you people?!! My childhood memories are not your stomping grounds!!!!!!
