Finally switched from Marvel to DC after 15 years of thinking it was lame
I always dumped on DC for being too dark and serious compared to Marvel. Then last month my buddy lent me his copy of Batman Year One and I read it in one sitting. The art by David Mazzucchelli is just clean and the story feels grounded in a way I didn't expect. Then I picked up All Star Superman and that completely flipped my view. Anyone else have a run that made you switch sides?

Man that's EXACTLY how I felt when I finally gave DC a real chance. I spent years rolling my eyes at the whole "DC is for adults" thing but then I read Batman The Long Halloween and it hit me different. The way the mystery unfolds over a whole year just grabbed me and I couldn't put it down. It made me realize DC's best stuff isn't about being dark just to be dark, it's about taking the characters seriously. All Star Superman is a MASTERPIECE though, that one got me emotional in ways I didn't expect from a Superman book. Glad you finally saw the light, it's a whole new world to explore now.
