I like DC more than Marvel. Reason?
Batman the Animated Series. I grew up on that masterpiece, and that shaped my thinking of comics. I do read some Marvel, but I always return to DC. Batman especiallly. I also love the Tick, which is also shaped by the old cartoon when I was little. Funny how that works.

The first comic I had and looked at, before I could even read, was Speedball. After that, some G.I. Joe. Both Marvel.

I grew up on Batman the tv show, batman comics, Superman movies, Superfriends, and the JLA comics. So, it's easy to see why I love DC. But I also love Marvel. Honestly, I enjoy them equally.

I always liked Marvel more than DC, but lately I prefer the latter. Marvel's storytelling is generally crappy and aside from actually creating a 'chain of events' style of cross-over plotting, Bendis hasn't done much to improve this. Compare Infinite Crisis to Civil War. I will admit, Civil War began with great intensity. Then there was a clone of Thor... now I don't know what to think. IC was great all the way through.
I stopped reading Thunderbolts years ago, shortly after Busiek left. I stopped reading Exiles once it lost touch with storytelling (adding Beak was stupid too). The only Marvel book I regularly read is Cable & Deadpool, mostly because I love those two characters and the writing is decent.

The only Marvel book I regularly read is Cable & Deadpool, mostly because I love those two characters and the writing is decent. The guy writing Cable & Deadpool also writes Thunderbolts. In fact, he's the guy that took over right after Busiek left. I'd highly recommend giving it another try.
