Both Marvel and DC have characters that everyone has heard of. For DC they are Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. For Marvel they are the X-Men, Spider-Man, Iron Man, and The Incredible Hulk. In the mainstream I would say Marvel wins out though. They have had more success over all in the area of blockbuster movies. This brings characters to kid's sneakers, billboards, popcorn buckets, etc. The increased marketing helps make certain characters more of a household name.
Answer: Relatively speaking the most recognizable names from the USA are Nixon, Bush, and Superman. DC characters are infamously more recognizable, and relatively household names; however, Marvel generally sells more comics, and does better in overall marketing. I would label Marvel as the more popular comics company.
I think personally DC is more popular then marvel except for in films but not tv. If you go on IMDB Arrow and Flash are both extremely popular shows. Not just that but the superman radio show and the Adam West Batman show were both popular. Super friends, justice league, batman the animated show. Batman and Superman are wayyyyyy more well known then Captain America and Iron Man. DC wins everyday.
DC is the older of the 2. heroes like superman, batman and the sandman came out in 1939. Marvel comics was officially established in the mid 60's. although they do have some characters, like captain America, that are from the 40's, they just bought the rights to them.
Marvel, they have more invinsible characters and they could easily get the kryptonite to beat superman (the only real threat)
