DC is ruining their best characters. Now to think of it, although Marvel is like a copycat when it comes to half of their chracters, DC is completely idiotic and got all their fame by luck.
DC did not create Batman the dark knight as we know it, Christopher Nolan did. DC just drew a character that look like a bat and that's it.
Superman and wonderwoman have completely no real personality or charcteristics what so ever except in Injustice: Gods Among Us which I think is the best comic DC ever produced, followed by watchmen.
And now DC's hopeless love for Zack the amazing director totally fucked up the protential of their movie industry as Christopher Nolan have showed us with the first real, and objectively the best "superhero" movies.
Some specific examples of how much they care about their characters, there have been 2 DC "restart"s in the last 5 years or so. Their entire movie universe, of a killing Batman, a dead Doomsday, a non-promising and basiclly non-existant joker, an already dead Robin, and I can go on but this spells out to me as "Fuck our fans and what they want", and "We are going to make another suicide squad except it's the justice league, yay"
For not-so-hardcore Batman fans, the entire point of every single personality trait of the Batman we know from the Dark Knight series and Injustice, is that he have an unbendable set of moral priciples which includes "No killing" as the most important one. The entire comic of Injustice is based around a Superman who went extreme on matters about "justice" and started basiclly ruling people and excuting people who have different opinion with him.
That's way too much of my time wasted already!!! Ok that's it back to my essay!!!

Despite his immense power and role as the guardian of the Planet, or even Multiverse in some storylines, he doesn't let the power go to his head. He doesn't think he's better then anyone. He considers security guards and good cops to be just as heroic as he is. He's incredibly down to Earth, despite his alien origin. He's compassionate to all kinds of issues, whether it be a girl suffering from depression on the verge of suicide or an actual genocide. I think this quote from Batman sums it up.
"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then... he shoots fire from the skies and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him."
But at the same time, Superman doesn't have much tolerance for bullshit. His "battle" with the Joker is a perfect example. He tears apart the Joker, figuratively of course. Saying how pathetic he really is, and how he just wants attention, basically calling him an edgy teenager. It's a great scene.
But Superman isn't flawless His flaws come from the fact that he can't save everything d save everyone and that he puts far to much pressure on himself. When he does make a mistake, he often tries to repent for it. After he couldn't stop a mass genocide, he decided to just help people in a more down to Earth manner. Helped get rid of a towns gang problem, helped a lady clean her diner. Sure, the comic kinda sucked, but it showed Superman in a more down to Earth lite.
Can't really speak much for Batman or Wonder Woman. I believe that Batman has been portrayed as the dark and brooding knight since the 70s. I really can't say much about Wonder Woman, I planned on reading her comics awhile back but never got around to it.
The thing is, Marvel and DC are two completely different beast. Whether you like one over the other is completely opinion based. Personally I like aspects of both. I love the X-Men (sans Wolverine) and to a lesser extent, Avengers from Marvel and I love the Teen Titans and Justice League from DC.
But.
The reason of Injustice: Gods Among Us IS somebody looked at superman, being the complete perfect and flawless smooth character he is, and decided to make a story about him corrupting.
It's like the character does good, and that's it, period. I'm not saying he is at all a bad character, but one really wonders what happens when you drag this simply perfect character into the Batman world.
And the Batman, the team carrier with uncorruptable ideals and an objective and realistic mindset, as shown in Dark Knight series and Injustice, and I'm pretty sure as you know it today, is created by Christopher Nolan in Batman Begins.
Before that, in films, Batman was a caped ninja with no personality, at all. And even longer before that in the 60s, he was a comedian joke kind of character. And in comics he is just as tasteless as any other heros.
What makes a "superhero" good IS its character.
-Batman is, copied from last paragraph.., the team carrier with uncorruptable ideals and an objective and realistic mindset.
-Superman is, in most of his comics, somebody who values life and others more than anything, a pure symble of hope.
-Wonder woman is a savage warrior in the shell of a freedom fighter.
-Green Lantern is, welp, errr, emmm, he is willful? I guess?...
-Aquaman, aaaaquaman,,,, aaaa, yeah he is a hotheaded king, maybe
-Ironman, er, a dick?
-Captain America... Em.. Exact copy of superman on Marvel's side?
-Spiderman:.........................................................
(*Threw away mic and left)
Man of Steel and BVS basiclly brought Batman and Superman down to other character's level, turned Superman female and called him wonder woman, not knowing the name was already being used by an Amazonian fierce warrior, and made the entire movie completely tasteless.
To this point you can already see the reason I don't like Marvel COMICS and a whole. Their characters are boring and unoriginal(Always copy DC's chracter).
BUT their films are getting better and better! From copycat michael bay style Ironman, sloowly processing to movies like Logan(my favorite superhero film right after The Dark Knight), Gardens of Galaxies 2, and have a promising future of getting better.
Let's look back on DC's films, Man of Steel, (*cough-cough), BVS (*cough! cough cough cough!), the 200 trash TV shows with disposible villians and revivable main characters (*Gulp, gulp..), Zack Snyder (*Throws up all over the monitor)
