I disagree.
Marvel's had a shit load of good stories the last decade or so: Age of Apocalypse, 1602, New Avengers, Ultimate Fantastic Four which introduced the Marvel Zombies, Astonishing X-Men...I've totally been digging the new Ms. Marvel, Black Panther, Captain Marvel and the current Secret Invasion story arc.
The only DC series I've found worth bothering with was Super Man: Red Son.
I'm a big DC fan, but most of it comes from Super Friends and the Batman Animated series which was many years ago. I still don't understand The Dark Knight...

Dr. Doom remains my favorite Super Villain of all time; who else has the balls to stand up a piece of shit Nazi, the Red Skull, like Victor Von Doom could?
