      Arthur Chu Retweeted El Sandifer, Rationality Expert to the Stars

      Thanos wanting the Infinity Gauntlet to actually literally just kill everyone is a lot less cool than Darkseid wanting the Anti-Life Equation (a simple logical statement that, to anyone who reads and understands it, reveals the "truth" that life isn't worth living)https://twitter.com/ElSandifer/status/1373373337636909059 …

      Arthur Chu added,

      The answer to “who would win in a fight, Darkseid or Thanos” is clearly that Jim Starlin created Thanos three years after Jack Kirby created Darkseid in a blatant game of “ooh I want one of those.”

      This is my whole thing, if you actually have to make it a contest between the Big Two (which IMO is dumb compared to actually following the careers of specific people) then I actually strongly believe DC has more cool stuff under their IP than Marvel did

          It's just that the people in charge of making that stuff into big-budget feature films keep on fucking it up

          I mean, shit, Watchmen is a DC comic, which they made into a feature film, which they fucked up

          It's very unfortunate that DC is owned by people that hate/are embarrassed by comics.

          I mean I was a DC fan before I was a Marvel fan because my introduction to comics was Sandman, which is DC through Vertigo and uses other DC characters occasionally. They're making that into a series...

          It's a difference in approach, I think. DC has this huge stuff with huge stakes, they've got the world's strongest man, the smartest, the fastest, galactic guardians, true evil. Marvel is, intentionally, much more down to earth, more small struggles with small characters 1/

          I'm not reviving superheroes as modern myths discourse, but grant morrison explicitly said he wrote superman and batman as immortal sun god and tormented night god, compared to like, a dysfunctional family (x-men, fantastic four) or a poor kid with responsibility (spider man) 2/

          DC has so much stuff that's so much fucking *weirder* than Marvel, down to minor characters like Zatanna. It's what I love about the comics and what's missing from the movies

          Just more generally Marvels "these guys are more relatable" has never worked for me outside of specifically Peter Parker. I like Superman because he's *not* like me, but I wish I could be more like him

          The best stuff owned by DC is probably better than the best Marvel stuff, but I think Marvel has a deeper bench.
