I personally prefer Marvel over DC, but I have no issue for DC at all, and still don't feel "being like DC" should be used as a criticism. And that's a very big generalization. There are plenty of Marvel shows that are more serious, while other DC shows can be more lighthearted. Just because you have seen some that fit the bill that does not mean anything for them all.

I could never compare them to the Spider-Man cast. Characters are far too different. Different age groups, different setting. Peter Parker is a sad clown trying to learn responsibility and live with grief. Ben Tennyson is an immature kid who just got given the greatest toy and is having the time of his life. And there isn't that Ben-Gwen "doofus-dweeb" relationship in Spider-Man as far as I'm aware either.

Again, nothing to do with my preference. I just could not understand why it was an issue at all to compare it with DC.
