The DC Universe vs. The Marvel Universe

Here's my view on the two universes-

Marvel Comics has a much wider variety of superheroes, with varying and very specific abilities. The DC Universe has a smaller number of heroes who have more powers and more complexity. This is why Marvel is generally more popular- however, it is also why DC characters such as Superman and Batman are such huge cultural icons.

Eh. I like the style and image of the DC heroes better than Marvel's. The Marvel Universe is alright, but I prefer the lore of the DC heroes more.

Anyway, it's a good thing that Warner Bros. is starting to roll out more films. There have been plenty of Marvel-based films- some good, some terrible, and there is an untapped world of potentially good films to generate from the DC Universe.

I'd like to see a modern Flash, Wonder Woman, and Green Lantern. Aquaman, even. If done right, those movies could be awesome.

Anyway, which world of comics, superheroes and media do you prefer?
