If Vertigo counts, then I'd have to say DC, without a doubt.
Anybody who hasn't yet read the Preacher series is doomed, and 100 Bullets is one of the most gripping comic tales I've read in a long time.
That said, I'm reading Marvel's Annihilation right now, and enjoying the hell out of it.

ack... im a big Marvel fan, but DC's Vertigo label produces a lot of my favourite comics (Sandman, Preacher, Hellblazer, lots of Alan Moore titles)...and DC has Batman... so it's a tough decision... I'm not going to vote on the poll since I can't decide... although most of the normal DC titles aren't my cup of tea (and i really really hate Superman...grrrr...)
Iron Man, the Runaways, New Warriors, The Avengers, Thunderbolts, X-Men...yeah I'm a Marvel man. Not to say that I don't read DC stuff like Action Comics (the current arc kicks too much arse) and Green Lantern, I just prefer Marvel.
Each to their own, right people?

I personally identify with more superheros from Marvel. I like DC because (generally speaking) when a character dies they stay dead; however, how many freaking crisis do you need before people stop caring. Plus Daredevil is Marvel and everybody knows (and i'm just speculating) that DD is the best. Yet ironically I have a pic of Guy Gardner (DC, Green Lantern; currently seen in the pages of Green Lantern Corps). Thats because Guy is awesome as well and I'm tired of staring at my sweet but brooding pics of DD.
Batman is clearly the best comic book hero around, but Marvel has a better overall lineup.....plus Marvel Zombies, which makes this a no contest.

Anyway, how can you not love Marvel: Civil War, World War Hulk, Marvel Frikken' Zombies! They fought Ash for christ sake!
Marvel Zombies is a joke. I don't understand how so many people can like it. Each to his own, I suppose.
Anyone remember The Invisibles? God bless Vertigo.

DC...and the Vertigo imprint at that. Transmetropolitan, Sandman Mystery Theatre, Preacher etc. Can't say much about Marvel's stuff, mostly because I haven't read much of any of it.
Also, what about Image and Dark Horse Comics? They've each got a pretty good good catalogue, although I'd favor Dark Horse over Image hehe ^^' Although, I guess this was just a Marvel v. DC thread. Hellboy and BPRD are my current favorites from Dark Horse... As for Image, well...I tried a few copies of the Spawn in trade paperback (I think), but kinda lost interest and moved onto Savage Dragon.

I'm not the biggest of comic book fans, but I usually root for Marvel off the top of my head. But every time I see something from DC I just can't even think through how intensely bad ass they are. I'm not quite sure why...that I have a habit of rooting for the underdog.
I read a lot of DC Vertigo comics, but I really can't get into the regular universe, I've read things like The Dark Knight Returns and Red Son though and enjoyed them.
But ultimately I'm a biggerr marvel fan, I've enjoyed the last sevens years of continuity (Disassembled to Siege) and all of my favourite characters are marvel (though they've killed a couple of them off recently). Also marvel has the cosmic stories that are really good, Guardians of the Galaxy are my favourite superhero team and Nova is one of my favourite characters.

I looked at the roster of a DC team. About 4 members did not have boy/man/girl/woman at the end.
Sure Marvel has plenty, but not too many, atleast in comparison. I like Marvel way better, more interesting to me than most DC stuff. Batman is the only super interesting DC to me. I do not resist learning more DC stuff though. I'll still see any DC movie.
