unfortunately neither DC or marvel are impressing me right now. both are making stupid decisions and neither, but marvel especially, seem to care about the fans, or good stories for that matter. marvel is content to sit on the fact that people will buy their crap no matter how bad it sucks. look at the top selling books, most are marvel and most are horrid. uncanny x-men? its in the top 10 every month, heck i still buy it because of kurt, but who actually thinks this is good writing? its horrible. i love the x-men, always have, always will, but i was sick to my stomach reading some of the crap thats held that title. its really a shame that the industry has degenerated to this state. out of all the comics i buy on a monthly basis i can honestly say that i dont ever look forward to half of them. the only books right now that i really want to continue reading are fantastic four, ultimate fantastic four and robin. i hope that the x-title relaunch will bring the x-men back into that group, but im not holding my breath.

I've really only read Star Wars comics, so Dark Horse, but a bit of Marvel as well. Iron Man rocks!

My favorite superhero has always been and always will be Batman, so it's DC for me.

I'm so sick of their decompressed, paced-for-the-Trade Paperback, 6-part storylines.
And the fact that Brian Michael Bendis writes half of their friggin' books.
And the fact that they keep "re-imagining" their characters to make them more movie-adaptation-friendly.
And the fact that their books have absolutely no consistency or continuity between them. They all exist in their own little universe, which is completely opposed to what Stan Lee had in mind.
And the fact that they constantly put out two of each series nearly every month, so the Top 10 each month looks something like this:
Yeah, I mostly agree with you comments, although I voted for Marvel.
Austen's Uncanny X-Men is by far the worst EVER!
And I really don't like their obsesion with multi-parts stories.
Maybe I should have voted for Fantagraphics; Love & Rockets is sooo great!

Image. The art on their Street Fighter strip is amazing, it is as good as alot of other comic book's cover arts.
Hmm...I wonder what Genghis12 would choose/did choose?

Marvel for me right now. DC has some great stories out there once and awhile but then they die off to a degree. I love Dark Horse too for the Star Wars stuff. I guess thats how i would do my top three.

When I was a kid, I would've said Marvel, but now Dark Horse has all the licenses I like.
