The whole DC vs Marvel feuding this summer is getting lame, it's sadly symptomatic of something Gene Siskel predicted many years ago, that the box office was going to become a derby or a sports venue. It's quite telling when liking Avengers is automatically correlated with being a Marvel supporter, much like a football team mentality.
