Two years ago (has it really been two years?!) in honor of March Madness here in the States, I did a Top Superhero Team Tournament (which the Avengers won easily). This year, with March Madness back, though I’m getting a late start, I decided to do a tournament to decide the top decade between the Big Two, i.e. Marvel and DC.
The first round matchups are just Marvel vs. DC for each decade of the 1940’s through the 2010’s. I’m not quite sure yet how to determine the matchups for the subsequent rounds, though it’s my goal to have the two “best” decades not meet until the finals.
I'll leave each round's polls open for about a week.
This one closes March 11, 6 AM EST.
So which company's output do you like better - 00's Marvel or 00's DC?

Tough one for me since I haven't read a lot from either company, though I'm more familiar with DC's output from this decade.

Marvel for the Ultimate Universe. And MC2.

Marvel for the Ultimate Universe. If you include M2 here, they had some really good stuff too. |

Marvel takes it here as I did dip into the Ultimate Universe and really ate up the "traditional" MC2 of the future MU Spider-Girl and folks.

I'm going to assume that Vertigo/Wildstorm/etc. counts unless told otherwise. So DC by a mile. I've read a relative handful of Marvel books from this decade.

I will say that I liked the Guardians of the Galaxy title from the 00's, though it's probably not enough to get Marvel the win for me.

I'm going with DC, but not for their superhero titles. Starman was the only decent one, for my tastes and it wrapped up in 2001. JSA started well, but after the first two years, the bloom was off the rose, for me. Marvel had a few sporadic things; but, nothing I read with any regularity. I was mainly in the indie camp from the late 90s onward.

What little I've read of the Big Two's output from the noughties alienated me. The only stuff I enjoyed for certain were the Spider-Girl comics.
