Should DC just concede to Marvel now?

I don't read comics, so I don't have a pre-preference between the two studios, but it seems like Marvel hit the right formula for these type of movies a while back, and DC eventually started to try to make their movies like Marvel's. Seems like they are just basically copying them now. They started making the heroes less morally perfect and more into flawed, wisecracking jerks like in Marvel (e.g. Aquaman, Shazam). Now they're going the multiverse route and bringing back old actors who played DC characters in previous movies (like Keaton), similar to what happened in the latest Spiderman movie.

They did. That's why they're rebooting it with James Gunn (save the Matt Reeves Batman). This, Aquaman 2, and that Blue Beetle movie are just being thrown out to die.

Marvel should just absorb DC like the WWE did to the WCW. Then they can have head to head battles between the Marvel Heroes and the DC ones.

As much as I'd love to see Dc vs Marvel, they'd never do it.

Oh I believe a crossover event is in the works. Might become the first $4B movie.

NO! DC does action better than Marvel in terms of fight scenes. It looks anime-like or animated-like. They just need better plot points.
