Heheheh NO

>>84538190

DC's street-level is usually just the Batfamily and a bunch of other guys who typically work alone.

Marvel's street-level feels like a kind of costumed neighbourhood watch where everyone knows each other and they all have a kind of rapport which allows them to work together more effectively.

I have to say, I do prefer the vibe street-level Marvel gives off.It's kind of like a street-level version of the Justice League with looser ties.
>>
>>84538190
If you don't like the batfamily, then you would be right.
>>
>>84538443
This, it really depends on how much you like Batman.
>>
>>84538253
That's only partially the case. Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Punisher are usually removed from the other street-level heroes.

The costumed neighborhood watch thing also raises the question of how there are something like four crime syndicates, multiple low level supervillains, and a ton of powered goons running about without issue. I really want to grab a couple of criminologists, give them a rundown of every street level hero, villain, gangster, and plot goings-on, and have them hash out exactly how crime in Marvel NYC works.

Let's be honest. When was the last time DC did something worthwile with the New Gods? Final Crisis?

No, Godhead clearly doesn't count.

One of the most frustrating things as a DC reader is how poorly fleshed out some of the corners of the DCU are. Outside Lanterns and New Gods there's nothing regularly. Adam Strange: Planet Heist was a such a good miniseries that makes you wish there was an Adam Strange ongoing in that style.

Both companies have slashed and burned their cosmic. Adam Strange and Annihilators never. Hope you like Bendis Guardians and Slott Surfer.

Overall you have New Gods and Lantern and Legion vs Guardians and Silver Surfer Jim Starlin stuff. Thor was also very cosmic in the early books and silver Age Superman and Justice League were also very cosmic.

I give the nod slightly to Marvel. Ever so slightly. But its close.

At least we're getting an Adam Strange and Hawkman mini in October.

>Two classic DC 'cosmic' characters (and a villain) return in October and are teaming up to prevent an interplanetary war in Hawkman and Adam Strange: Out of Time, a new six-issue limited series by writer Marc Andreyko and interior/cover artist Aaron Lopresti.

>"Residing on Earth and out of the hero game, Adam Strange finds himself trying to live a 'normal' life, until he’s literally pulled back into adventure again as a seemingly normal Zeta beam transmission returns him to the planet Rann, where he hopes to be reunited with his beloved Alanna. But instead, he finds the once great city of Ranagar in ruins with millions dead, and the once peaceful Alanna is now calling for the blood of Rann’s oldest enemy, Thanagar, home of the Hawkmen.

They should use the Lanterns to flesh out cosmic DC.

Throw L.E.G.I.O.N. and the Darkstars against each other in a conflict, have the GLs deal with them. Use Vril Dox, Starfire and/or Blackfire as actual scheming cosmic diplomats. Upgrade Thanagar into an empire to be reconned with on an intergalactic scale. Do not rehash the Rann-Thanagar War without good reason. Use the Spider Guild and the Vega system more. Take the characters who appear in R.E.B.E.L.S., Threshold, Omega Men, Nubo, etc. and fucking do something with them. Stop making the Lanterns fight against the other Corps and actually make them act like the police force they are who are also present during diplomatic negotiations.

DC just has too many fucking characters and publish too many fucking weird comic.

I mean, they have 20 something established cowboy characters with long runs, 30 something soldier characters with long runs, 10 or so spy characters with long runs, 15 or so space related characters with long runs, 10 or so magic related characters with long acclaimed runs, and they're always making more.

Detective Chimp is a street-level character,. for fuck's sake. A fucking monkey dressed as Sherlock Holmes, and he has tons of comics. What the fuck is this? Batman even consult with the monkey on cases in serious fucking dense stories.
>>
>>84538190

>>84538253
Nothing "street level" about Batman. His antagonists are still mostly super villains and he still has typical silly cape comic adventures. DC street level is basically Wild Dog, Vigilante, The Question, and maybe Richard Dragon if you count martial arts books as "street level". There's a few others, but not much.
>>
>>84543489
They should make the lanterns deal with all the shit they cause and ignore while battling other lanterns, which is like half the reason organisations like L.E.G.I.O.N. exists in the first place. Colu was a totalitarian dictatorship for a very long time, the Dominators have been allowed to do pretty much whatever they want to do and the Psion keep most of their women as sex slaves, and the GLs did nothing or very little about it.

Spider-Man is in the Flash's camp of someone who could easily go beyond street-level delegating himself to dealing primarily with street-level crime because he's all about the little guy.

Also, Spidey's powers are specifically catered to street-level crime fighting. He requires tall buildings to swing around/stick to walls, can easily take people down with little to no severe damage using his webs and has a sixth sense which detects nearby danger.

He's basically got the perfect street-level power set.

No, quality aside, it showed how varied Marvel's street level characters are:
-Daredevil - vigilante stories
-Jessica Jones - noir/detective stories
-Luke Cage - urban stories
-Iron Fist - mystic martial arts stories

And that's without going into Punisher, Shang-Chi, Moon Knight, etc. They are able to explore more genres and have a more well-rounded street universe. DC's street level isn't like that because of how Batman-centirc it is. Even they're other street characters treat similar waters as Batman.
>>
>>84540821

Yup. You'd think that all the supervillains would get out of NYC and head to some place that wasn't literally crawling in supers. New Orleans, Chicago, Detroit, Miami, Los Angeles, Seattle, Philadelphia, Dallas, Austin, Houston, San Antonio.

There's tons of big cities without super protection. Has this ever been addressed in-universe?

>DC's street level isn't like that because of how Batman-centirc it is. Even they're other street characters treat similar waters as Batman.

That's bullshit. Even if you count the Batman related comics you've different niches.

Batman usually is more pure action stories with Batman facing metas.
Detective Comics usually is more noir/detective stories.
Grayson/Nightwing has been more sci-fi/spy stories.
Batgirl has been more more cutesy slice of life stories.
Red Hood has been more crazy-zanny action stories.
Birds of Prey/Black Canary was more mystic martial arts stories (she has been more Batman related ever since the reboot)
Catwoman has been more urban stories.

If you can point me in the direction of a DC equivalent to Claremont's work on the X-Men, then I'd really appreciate it. A run of 150+ issues that creates as many iconic stories, characters and concepts?

No.

That doesn't really make them the same. Batman has crossed different genres under various writers. From solving mysteries to handling mystic cults, otherworldly demons and cosmic beings. Green Arrow had a very distinct run under Grell.
Then there was Bat woman fighting monsters, ragman, Hitman, Constantine
>Morrison's Manhattan Guardian was one of the most unique Street level stories along with his Batman.

Marvel Cosmic, and Marvel in general for that matter, stopped being interesting to me after Shooter left. I mean there were some good books from that era, but otherwise it was just total, hot, festering garbage

Rogue War was pretty much a gang family war but with superpowered people.
>>
>>84548860
I'm talking about characters that still have a presence in the universe, you know. DC hasn't published anything about that character in ages. You don't have to convince me, I'm already a DCfag, but I even I can't deny Marvel has more varied street heroes.
>>
>>84548860
I think he's arguing about current street heroes, Question was changed into a mystical non street hero after new 52 (I hope they get rid of him so we can get old question or Rene as question again).
>>
>>84548991
Same guy who was arguing here. Damn, I wish they stopped with that mystical shit for Question. Get him back on street level shit again. He's a great character.

Iron Fist sucks, that whole thing about a gringo learning martial arts and being better than asian people at them fucking sucks

I can agree with this but imo the peak of Street level marvel was the early to mid 2000s in my opinion.
>>
>>84549091
I'm surprised I got 2 (You)s for that. I legit didn't know who Adam Strange was though.

Damn straight!

However, this really only applies to O'Neil's run, 52, and The Pipeline.

Spider-Man started on the streets and worked his way up. He still has mad love for the streets though. The streets are in his blood. You can take the spider out the streets but you can't take the streets out the spider.

Just admit you're a companyfag, bro.

No.

As overrated as Batman is, he and the Batfamily are still infinitely more interesting than any Marvel street hero with the exception of Spider-Man.

>Jessica Jones - noir/detective stories

Yeah, go eat a big pile of shit. There was nothing "noir" about Jessica Jones and she hardly did any detective work. The fucking Flash gang does more detective work than she did
>>
Okay but Marvel has a lot more street level to choose from. DC basically just has the Batfamily on their off days
>>
>>84548824

>Including Spider-Man and Daredevil as Street Level when they're literal superheroes who deal with Supervillians
>Green arrow has no powers and deals with human traffickers and drug peddlers, only gets a "maybe"

Nice company bias, cunt

What the fuck is this thread? Are we /v/ now?
Company loyalty is fucking stupid with comics, because unlike video games, you don't need to purchase a separate $400 console to even touch the other side's shit. You just need to pick up another $3, 4 comic from whichever company you want.

Enjoy reading Batman. Enjoy reading Daredevil. Read some Adam Strange, and switch to Starlord if you want. But for God's sake don't perpetuate this shitty brand loyalty mindset. That's not what comics are about.

Well $4 from one company anyway

Green Arrow has a special place in my heart. It's a shame he's stuck in the DC universe with guys like Superman, Batman and The Flash, guys that make him look like a chump.

Green Arrow is excellent on his own.

Spencer's Ant-Man does mention it when he's moving out to Florida but since it's a fairly comedic book that doesn't even take itself seriously it's not like a nuanced explanation on the "Gotham is literally built on a pit to hell" level of address if that's what you're looking for
>>
Reminder that Wildstorm and Milestone counts as DC too.
>>
>>84545588
That's basically the premise for Runaways.
