Is Vertigo counted as part of DC? (I believe DC owns Vertigo)

Seriously, no Image? This pole is coming from someone who doesn't know comics, Image, hands down is putting out the best comics.

@daveloft: Missed image too. But, with no image, voted DC. Vertigo is the second best.

Strictly limiting the criteria to comic books, Marvel has a better variety of quality stories from many different superheroes. That said, DC has the following (among others):

  • Geoff John's Green Lantern arcs
  • Alex Ross and George Perez's Crisis on Infinite Earths
  • Alan Moore's The Killing Joke
  • Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns trilogy
  • The Knightfall story of Batman

Stan Lee and Jack Kirby made a colossal success with Marvel characters which is the most important part of comics. If the characters do not have emotional backstories, the stories they are involved in would be unappealing which might be why many superhero fans empathize with Batman's story of vengeance due to loss instead of Superman's story of American patriotism due to loss.

Whichever includes the Batman franchise. I don't read comics and never did, but if I that were to change, Batman would be the only comics I'd touch.

With no Image which has some of the best comics coming out today (like Saga), I'll go with DC cause I like reading Superman and the Justice League.

All the publishers have both good and bad comics. It comes down to the authors and the artists who work for them, not the publishers overall.

Comic book sucks. Manga is best.
