Well, you see, there's my problem. I was raised on the original George Reeves Adventures of Superman TV show, and I was reading comics years before Marvel brought out their superhero line, which was the early '60s. I also wasn't much of a fan of Steve Ditko's or Jack Kirby's art, preferring Curt Swan's style which I considered more 'realistic' but probably just what I was used to. All that said, Marvel pretty much invented character development in the comics, and Stan Lee & Co. pretty much set a new standard for the industry. But I was already settled in my ways, and I've never bothered to change.

Well that's it isn't it.... when I was a nipper it was all Marvel, DC was the little brother. Spiderman was all the rage and Batman had yet to become 'cool'.

It seems der Fuehrer has some rather strong feelings about the DC comic reboot....
