Hellboy is neither Marvel nor DC.
He's from Dark Horse Comics (in independant), though he has made several crossovers into other comic book worlds.
The first drawing of the character was a black and white illustration in which he wore a belt bearing the name Hellboy. This image appeared in a program for the Great Salt Lake Comic Con in 1991, therefore making the program the first publicly published drawing of Hellboy. A later incarnation of Hellboy appeared on the cover of Dime Press #4 (1993), an obscure Italian fanzine.
Before Hellboy was published independently at Dark Horse Comics, the concept was initially pitched to a board of directors for DC Comics, who loved it but didn't like the idea of it involving "hell."
The citizens of Gotham, it would seem. That's the only explanation I can think of for why he continues to not invest in decent security at Arkham. I mean, it's so easy to break out of that place that even a guy who literally tells you what he's going to do before he does it (Riddler) can waltz out of there.
Bruce Wayne is rich enough that he could make that place secure. But he doesn't. Why? Because he LIKES beating on criminals. And he's okay if a few Gothamites die along the way.
What are both of Superman's fathers' names?
Superman's birth parents were Jor-El & Lara Lor-Van.
He was adopted by Jonathan& Martha Kent when he arrived on Earth.
