Comic publishers: Who's your favorite?

[natural20]

I personally love the Vertigo branch of DC, but my brother's a Marvel boy all the way. Who makes the comics you love to read?

EDIT: Removed the poll, as it was broken...

Is there any contest?

Marvel of course.

Also, your poll appears to be broken.

Bill Watterson. Calvin and Hobbes = my childhood.

Del Rey.

Tokyopop makes a good showing, but Del Rey includes translation notes that I find fascinating.

Bill Watterson. Calvin and Hobbes = my childhood.

Sadly, he's an artist, not a publisher. I appreciate the sentiment, though.

Ahem. I was promised a poll.

OT: I can't really decide. On the one hand, Marvel has Ghost Rider, and Ghost Rider is fucking badass. But on the other hand, DC has the badass known as Batman, and by extention, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn, both of whom are smoking hot. No ordinarily, this would be no contest, but then you take Ghost Rider's motorcycle into consideration and you have a stalemate lasting the entire length of the Hundred Years War (which, despite the name, lasted 116 years)

Yen Press, mostly because I like the way they translate the manga. They keep the Japanese sound effects and add English subtitles instead of completely editing them out or completely ignoring them.
