In the Marvel universe the origins tend to lean one of two ways, magic or science.įor example, Spider-Man developed his powers after a radioactive spider bit his nerdy alter ego Peter Parker or Juggernaut whose alter ego Cain Marko was transformed into a hulking behemoth by the magic Ruby of Cyttorak.While in the DC universe origins tend to lean toward the unexplored reaches of space and realistic drama. The origin stories for the heroes couldn’t be more different.
To most people a comic is just that, a comic, but to a fan the worlds of the two major comic companies, DC and Marvel, couldn’t be more different. Since I was very young, comics have fascinated me.
