Don’t think there’s much doubt that Marvel wins SDCC 2019. Between the movie announcements, the Disney streaming shows, Hickman’s X-Men total brand reboot, and Marvel Legends, they smoked DC like a Smithfield ham. This was an ass beating of epic proportions. DC didn’t even put up a fight. I understand that things are changing at DC/WB. But just wow. The void was prominent.
They've had the time on their side to get this right and they've blown it time and again. Marvel had a plan and it worked beautifully.
DC/WB seem completely inept at getting their shit together and instead give us utter rubbish like Suicide Squad and a Joker movie that may have exceptional performances, but is not linked to anything fans feel strongly about. It's that kind of arrogance that put them in this situation. Comic fans are a ready and willing audience, get it right and they will come.
Marvel goes into the bar and plays pool with their fans, shouting a few rounds of drinks. DC drive past the bar in their limo and scarcely lower the window to look down their noses at the riff-raff.
