Let's be realistic - 90% of superheroes are male. Personally, I prefer Superman, Batman and Spider-Man to Wonder Woman. Not that I don't like female superheroes, but watching male superheroes gives me a high.
One of the things that appealed to me most about comics was that you can pick the ones you like and build your own personal pantheon.
I was a Charles Schulz kind of guy. I didn't read comics books. The Warner Bros. guys were great - Chuck Jones and Friz Freleng.
I wasn't terribly aware of Catwoman. She was a DC comics character and as a kid, I wasn't terribly fond of the DC comics characters. I was a Marvel boy.
People think I have an interest in comics, but I'm only interested in comics from the '40s, like 'Donald Duck' comics.
I do remember being a fan of the Marvel characters and not liking the DC characters at all.
When I was a kid, I read many more Marvel comics than I did DC. As I got older, in high school and then in college, I started reading more DC.
For a long time, I was under the impression that 'Terry and the Pirates' was the best comic strip in the United States.
I tend to only read comics written by friends or people I've known. And I'm not a great comic reader.
I'm not opposed to comics on the Internet. It's just not interesting to me.
I love working at Marvel, but it was definitely DC that got me hooked as a reader.
