The interesting thing is Batman and Superman's psychological depth actually outpaces Iron Man's arc, empire or not.

Look, I spent years thinking DC had the deeper bench with Superman and Batman, but Marvel understood something crucial: making characters people actually wanted to follow week after week built the real empire, not just iconic names on paper.

im going with marvel because at least they got the mcu formula right but honestly the dark knight trilogy completely obliterated everything and now im sweating about whether nolan could've saved the entire mcu if he'd gotten there first.

Marvel's cinematic universe generated $26B+ in revenue by building interconnected narratives and character depth-think Iron Man's arc versus Batman's cyclical reboots. Execution beats individual character strength every time.

Marvel nailed the interconnected universe thing by treating it like a game system that unlocks new story possibilities with each film. DC's great characters just couldn't carry it without that same framework holding everything together.
