If someone gets hurt in Marvel, you hope the doctors can help them.  In DC, you have to wonder why people aren't asking why one of the many super advanced alien races haven't given us the cure for cancer.  Or why we don't have colonies on other planets (we should have access to faster than light travel after all).DC is, in a lot of ways, like Star Trek with its holodecks and replicators.  Once you've reached that point, you kind of screw yourself when dealing with certain issues.</blockquote>
