I grew up on Marvel... but lately I just can't help but feel that DC is kicking Marvel's ass all over the place.
Marvel really started losing me during House of M when i just couldn't help but feel that all that had to happen to undo the "massive changes" were Wanda waving her hands. Then I got really disgusted when Marvel came out with "The Illuminati". Let's see... DC comes out with Identity Crisis and reveals that their top heroes have been harboring a huge secret for years. Marvel then comes up with "The Illuminati". A group of their top heroes that we find out have been harboring huge secrets for years. I didn't even bother with Civil War. When I read about the resurrection of the hero that you mentioned, it kind of confirmed that I was doing the right thing. The only worthwhile thing coming out of Marvel right now is Astonishing X-Men, and Whedon's about ready to leave that title. Since moving to CA back in Sept, I've actually all but stopped collecting. I do like what's going on in the DC Universe, but money has been tight. And things like the Marvel Universe being a heaping pile of suck coupled with "big event" on top of "big event" coupled with the ridiculous lateness of books (Ultimate Hulk vs. Wolverine anyone? All-Star Batman and Robin?)...it was enough that even though I had to stop for financial reasons... I haven't really missed it or felt too compelled to try and get back into it.
