As of lately I have noticed a lack of Batman sets being made by LEGO, I wonder if they are making more or cutting the theme off
(sorry batbrick, all good things come to an end, especially if its licensed classic: )
If they are cutting the theme and stopping production I am ok with that mainly because I am a Marvel fan (spiderman, ironman,etc)
Now Batman was created by DC (obviously)

So my question to everyone is:
Would you prefer Marvel back or keep DC (Batman) around?

My obvious choice would be Marvel
Also I'm not saying Batman is being cut but if it is what do you think of it?

Marvel Supremacy On

I voted for both because as a long-time comic book collector I have favorites from both camps. However, I'd prefer they don't concentrate on one or two heroes or teams. For example, I wouldn't want to see an X-Men theme; rather, I'd love a line of different characters from each universe. Even better would be lesser known characters instead of the usual Spider-man, Batman, Superman, et al. How about The Specter or The Defenders? Dr Fate or Adam Warlock? I realize this would never happen as youngsters have no idea who these characters are, but if we're gonna dream, may as well dream big! ;)

Piranha, the Batman license is over. Now all we can do is wait and see if Lego picks up either another DC superhero or have the return of the Marvel license. I personally don't care as much anymore, as Lego is through with Batman. (hopefully not forever!) Although I do have to say it would be real cool to have a Superman license or even a Marvel license for Spidey (again!) or Fantastic Four. So, to answer your question, I would love to keep Batman around, but other than that, I would take just about any superhero license. (except X-men)

I know Lego still keeps close ties with DC, and Mega Blocks currently still holds the Marvel License.

I voted both as well.

Because I am a MAJOR fan of Superman, so I would love to see a license for that someday.
But I also love X-Men(especially Wolverine and Cyclops ) and Spider-man a lot.
And with all these new Marvel movies, and the games Marvel: Ultimate Alliance and it's coming sequel, I'm getting to know the Marvel universe a bit and it keeps getting more interesting so...

But my biggest hope is still a general DC comics License

I vote for DC, because i´m a big fan of Superman and Batman. I own most of the Batman-Sets and i wish TLC would bring us some new ones.

Me Arthas would like Marvel better

[prateek]

I picked both because I'd only like to see more Spiderman and Batman, nothing else.

I voted DC - Lego has a better relationship with them [the Batman line, and DC publishes the Bionicle comics, or used to], and I would love to see a Teen Titans line.

Personally I prefer Marvel over DC . I really like the backstories and characters from the Marvel universe plus the outfits of the characters of Mavel are a lot more colorful and have more minifig potential than most DC characters. Also if the TLC make some sets with brickbuild characters like Fing Fang Foe or Galactus I will definitely buy them .

I like the Marvel Universe so much more than the DC universe, but I would rather have them bring back the Batman license than have any other Marvel theme. Spider-man was okay, but the Batman license did alot better. (I thought) However, if they chose to make an Iron Man theme, I would choose that over Batman. Why? Because of weapons and tanks! So anyways, I voted DC.

voted for DC. still wishfully thinking of Watchmen MiniFigs and a Lego Archie

I think there is more to create in the Marvel universe, more iconic locales. Neither have household names floating around, but there's more to make.

So, Avengers and the Quinjet, Fantastic Four and the Four Freedom's Plaza (or Baxter Building), X-Men and the Danger Room, Doctor Doom's castle. Lots of sets.

DC has stuff to make too, but other than Superman's fortress of solitude and Batman's batcave, I don't associate locations/vehicles with DC's heroes (Flash, Green Lantern, etc.)

I kinda disagree on that subject. Other than the Fortress of Solitude LEGO could also create the Daily Planet, the LexCorp building and, if they're going a bit more into the Smallville direction, the Kent farm, LuthorCorp Plaza, and Luthor Mansion. To be true, that's all I can think of (for now) but I think that could be possible.
As for Batman, I agree not much more can be made, except for perhaps the Gotham Police headquarters, since the Batcave and Arkham Asylum have already been made. Although a Wayne Manor would be possible, and perhaps a Wayne Enterprise building.

Exactly my reason for voting DC! That and the Batman theme!
