Beast Boy can turn into just about any animal as well. So the Legion of Super pets is a no go for me. The Pet Avengers have a bone to pick with you guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to take most of the stuff from golden and silver age of comics seriously. Both Marvel and DC were focused on fun comedy stories over the super serious story of the current age of comics. Anytime things like the Superpets are brought up now, it's made to laugh at the absurdity of the golden and silver ages or for kid comics like Tiny Titans or The Super Hero Squad.

Say what you want about Super Hero Squad but that show played a good part in my childhood. I learned a lot about marvel characters and villains from that show. I mean just look at that art.

Wtf wasn't Lockjaw with the Inhumans, what the hell does he have to do with the Avengers?!? Just picking on you. Nothing at all to do with the Avengers, except if you put the word Avengers on a comic people are more likely to make a purchase. Similar to how DC has Batman appear in every comic. I think there were three or maybe even four of these series. In the first Lockjaw is putting together a team to look for the Infinity Gems, spoiler alert they they find and give them to Mr. Fantastic and then disband. In the second series Throg feels bad, goes to another world/dimension and the team reassembles to find Throg. They are okay I guess, if I remember correctly they were mainly a silver age throwback. I think one of the trades may have had a Throg origin story, that I remember liking, so there is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing wrong with kid-friendly comics. One of the modern disasters of comics is that kids no longer read them. There's a reason that readership has declined immensely since those Golden and Silver Ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkthur Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Both sides have laughable comics, some are still running. I don't think there is nothing bad with kid-friendly stories, I just don't like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevengeancePrime Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 There are characters and stories that I enjoy from both DC and Marvel, but I give the edge to Marvel for one reason only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
