			marvel ..
 i thought they were the first to 'grow up' and interest the college crowd while DC was still pandering to young children.
 
 I'm basing my opinion on years gone by because i stopped collecting/reading comics about 15 years ago.
 
 nothing could beat spiderman for a hero you could identify with - something no one else did to that point.
 
 (years later DC came up with Firestorm which was the closest thing to spiderman at that time.
 
 i know DC got a lot darker later ... but i still prefer Marvel from my past reading experience.
