Stop Copying Me!

"Stop copying me!"

Stop it!

"Stop it!"

Comic Bloc has a thread looking at characters DC based off Marvel characters and characters Marvel based off DC characters.

The thing that comes immediately to mind in looking at that list is that, Lobo aside, Marvel got such the better end of the deal. Their DC-derivative characters have proven to be very successful (Squadron Supreme, Imperial Guard, Moon Knight) and become important parts of the Marvel Universe mythology.

DC's Marvel-rip offs are mostly very obscure characters with little real importance to the overall DCU.
