While in DC we don’t have that many characters that are really that funny we have the flash who is a forensic scientist who was struck by lightning and gained the power of super speed, he devoted his life to finding his other murderer he is occasionally funny and then there's green lantern who was chosen by a magical ring that turned him into a member of the green lantern corps(which pretty much means he turned into a space cop)and there are a few more funny DC characters. Some people might argue that Marvel is too funny and not serious enough but Marvel does have serious characters such as the punisher , after his family a got murdered by a mob special forces marine veteran Frank Castle(aka the punisher) he uses his skills against organized crime, then Marvel has ghost rider long story short Johnny blaze made a deal with the Devil (literally) and he became ghost rider but he was tricked and ever since he became the spirit of vengeance, and there are more serious characters. Even in movies the Marvel characters are funnier there have been many Marvel and DC movies and DC has been mostly serious while Marvel

    They were hated and actually hunted because they were different from everyone else. Anyone who experienced discrimination could relate to the X-Men characters. The publisher of Marvel Comics at the time wanted Lee to write the comics at a lower reading level because he thought that comics were for only children, but Lee fortunately did not follow his publisher's wishes. Lee came up with the idea of the Fantastic Four story line. These characters were superheroes while they kept their day jobs. They had different obstacles that readers had never seen heroes deal with before. Creating complex storylines engaged the readers and opened the comic book industry to more opportunities, like movies and television shows ("Modern…

A great example of a more complicated comic book is Spider-man: Blue. This particular story revolves around Peter Parker rather than his crime fighting alter ego Spider-man. The book takes place on Valentines day, and consists of Peter hiding away in his attic, talking into a tape recorder cataloguing all the things he wishes he could’ve said to Gwen Stacy, Peter’s significant other, who’s death he was responsible for. What many people don’t know is that a reoccurring theme in Spider-man is death.…

    "Faster than a speeding bullet, stronger than a locomotive, jumps tall buildings in a single bound." Superman is known throughout the world for being the savior of a city called Metropolis. In every comic book, movie, or action figure ever presented to the public, Superman is a handsome, strong man who can defeat all odds at all times.
