DC Comics
Sorry, I don't know how to delete an article, so I just got rid of most of the stuff in it instead.
Just The Facts
- i wrote this article years ago
- im so so sorry
- this is proof teenagers are terrible people
section 1
so so so so so so so sorry
section 2
This better appease all of those angry commenters. It's like impossible to get rid of this thing. Also, my god. I'm not sure how I even wrote this. This was... yes this was indeed a dim period for my brain cells. Apparently this section needs to be over 250 characters so... I'll just add random words until it get there.
section 3
I thought about saving a copy of this article, so I could remember how stupid I once was, but it was too depressing. Also, why did any of you read this? Hell, I didn't even read all of this before deleting this. Also, for some reason I couldn't get rid of the sections and save it. So instead I just have to fill up space.
Section 4
This... ya this was a really hateful article. Dang. Young trolls, take the comments below as a lesson that trolling doesn't end well. Ever. Also, cracked needs to get some account controls implemented so users can delete content and stuff.
Section 5
Hey! I'm done! My youthful mistake has been erased, minus the thousands of comments below. Thank goodness I never checked up on my account after I made that article. Oh well. If someone's still reading this, don't troll on how I didn't re-write it - just take it as a lesson on "think REALLY hard" before posting something.
Cracked: Troll Topics?
ReplyWow. This is both the single worst article I've ever seen on this site and the single worst commentary of comic books I have ever read.
ReplyThe last picture with Superman and Batman with the talk bubbles are hilarious and awesome! Lol! :D
Replycorrect me if i am wrong but i believe dc came first so it wasn't always in marvels shadow.
ReplyI was thinking the same thing! It's the other way around as you said. It was Marvel that was living in DC's shadow intially.
I can say i am almost offended completely by this article dc comics are my favorite.....i cant wait for detective and action comics batman and superman when the role around every month......they are basically my heroes batman's combination of one of the darkest and in depth story lines of all time and origin of batman is amazing i would compare it to spider man....who guess what saw one of his loved ones die and decided to fight crime......so is he messed up for taking the law in his hands or the fact that he got bit in the butt by a spider that gave him super powers just takes it to a whole new level for you? and you know what i kinda like spider-man.....but guess what....he has the same ego problem as you buddy flash up there who as an individual is a mediocre super heroes but put him in the justice league and he is a very functional member of the team.....and really? x-men?.....i feel like i am watching all my children when i read that crap....to be honest the only marvel i read is captain America and that's because you break the bank trying to buy all of those comics. And man....if trashing my favorite superhero and my favorite side-kick of all time didn't get me in a bad mood even messing with superman.....that makes me soo mad...clean cut? ill tell you why HE REPRESENTS THE AMERICAN WAY when dc created him they weren't looking for some superhero who represented the thugs of America that's just dumb okay....he is clean cut becuase he the true meaning of super hero....a role model....lets not forget comics where originaly made for guess who...the kid population (me) marvel has some great titels....and many bad ones....so does dc....but point being if you cant see how awesome batman and superman.....and half the other characters you didnt mention like oh i dont know booster gold and many others.....then just quite reading comics while you can otherwise you'll just find some (quote from your article) just find some "gay" reason to dislike them too.....
ReplyThis was just a poorly written and edited article.
ReplyDC is infinitely superior to Marvel. DC is a fantastic mythology of sky gods warring with devils for the fate of men. Marvel, on the other hand, is essentailly real life, with real people, who just like to run around in flamboyant costumes at night. Basically, Marvel is a metaphor for closeted homosexuality.
ReplyHonstely, the reason I stopped reading Marvel after the Silver Age of comics, is the same reason it became more popular than DC, it stopped being magical, mystical, and fantastic (basically stopped being Comic book-y), and became realistic, political, and teen angsty.
And Dark Horse and Image aren't even contenders, they're below mentioning, which is why they get crushed in sales and aren't making movies for their characters every month.
Damn! Now I feel like a douchebag for having a Kev-Mobile, Kev-Cycle and Kev-Pants.
ReplyMarvel is DC's retarded twin brother. They look relatively similar, and have the same D N A, but something's just not right with that "Marvel" kid. His brother really is quite bright though.
ReplySuch potential. lol
This fanboy s**t is ridiculous. I like Marvel, but DC is much more attuned to my brain. It's not simply a story, just thrown together. The effort is tangible. It's so beautiful.
And Marvel has...good names. But it's too political, and too dumbed down. It's the preppy kid of the comic book world.
straight out dude, this guy is retarded
I started to read the article and it took me all of one single paragraph to realize:
ReplyA) Written by a child.
B) Written by a fanboy child.
C) Written by a fanboy child who thinks swearing = funny.
This was obviously not vetted by any of the regular Cracked staff given the poor spelling, lack of basic research and overall juvenile level of writing. This article needs to be deleted.
Yeah, I concur. I mean, DC has it's problems, but seriously, this is desperate. I mean, you could basically sum up this article by saying "DC IS STOOPID!". I mean, I suppose that I don't come to Cracked for legitimate criticisms, but this just isn't funny in the least. I mean, calling a superhero gay? That's funny if you have a double digit IQ. They wear brightly colored spandex. I mean COME ON. That's like the guy who breathes through their mouth while playing Halo on Xbox Live and narrates everything they're doing.
got that right bro. this guys sucks balls
i think you are wrong and you are wright about some characters in the backgrounds that have no reason to be there i have to start with flash he doesnt just run he is the fastest man alive faster than super man he can sufficate enemies with a tornado he makes while spinning and can attack so fast leaving enemies looking stupid he is one of the greatest super herioes of all time make sure u dont talk about green lanter like that no more
ReplyDC are deeper and darker than Marvel, more adventurous, better written, and less polarised
Replyon America and all things American. And the decision to target a whole different market with the Vertigo titles was such good move for them. Some of DC's best characters have come from Vertigo, characters that have become richer and more complex, and because the parameters were less restrictive than Marvel's, they brought us all time classic series' like Neil Gaiman's "Sandman", John Constantine, the hilarious and much darker than it looks, Animal Man,
It's really a shame that this article is clearly half-assed, especially compared to the well-written and interesting Marvel Comics article.
Replywow, until now I actually had respect for Cracked writers. DC has some of the best books ever written, period. You can't say that DC sucks when DC has Masterpieces such as The Dark Knight Returns, Superman Red Son, etc. Don't forget that Marvel is now owned by Disney, sure that'll come off well. This article doesn't deserve to be on cracked
Replythis article just sucks.
ReplyI know, i spelled 'narrative' wrong. Mistakes are forgivable. This article is not.
ReplyAlrighy, I finally read the entire post. And man, you suck even more than I thought the last time. Haven't you noticed that not even one commenter agrees with you? Not even the Marvel fans do. You know why? Because you're retarded, that's why.
Reply"Image Comics are better." That's all I needed to read to know this article was written by a dumbass. Still, I read a few phrases (not all, mind you, there's only so much idiocy I can take from the same idiot), and I noticed that you were even more of a dumbass that I originaly thought. If Marvel is so much better, then why DC has a greater fanbase? Why Marvel constantly needs to make movies about his characters to call the attention? Don't misunderstand me: I love Marvel, but I'm certainly not one of the idiots (read: you) that says that DC sucks and can't even make ONE good proof of it. All that you said is utter bullshit, not one goddamn real proof that DC sucks (which it doesn't).
ReplyAnd yeah, Image sucks. HARD. Dumbass.
Wow. Bad writing, bad history, and homophobia. Way to go, Dudeman_Hayden. Your parents must be very proud.
ReplyAnd this, gentlemen, is what happens when someone who hates something tried to parody it - or what happens when someone who thinks Image Comics is better than DC tries to write.
