Just re-publishing some old material...
If X-Men was created by DC Comics.....
They'd all have capes, including one attached to Prof. X's chair.
Jean Grey would still have come back from the dead, only this time each new Jean would come from a different "earth"
They'd all be walking plot devices with super-speed and flight.
they'd all be against rulers from other galaxies, and save the whole universe every month while releasing interviews and signing autographs
It would be called X-tactics
right about now, half of them would be getting killed off in a stupid storyline just to boost sales... and more stupid capes too
If X-Men was created by DC Comics, it would be called Doom Patrol. Oops. Too late.
Bullets would bounce off Wolverine's head instead of being pushed out be healing.
Scott could be rendered powerless by a 'rare' radioactive rock from his hometown, that every super-villain seems to have on hand.
Jean could leap tall buildings in a single bound.
Magneto would regularly construct elaborate death traps, then go away, assuming they're dead.
Beast would be the dumb mascot/pet, who'd save the day inadvertently.
...it would be a lot less popular.
...And if Marvel had the Justice League?
Batman would be racist, black, and wouldn't wear a cape, would have got over his issues of his sad lonely life and joined the Avengers along with Superman.
Enemies like the Penguin and Riddler would have been scrapped for foes that were actually intimidating and who would put up a proper fight. He'd also be half-bat.
Superman would have been raised by the military for use as a weapon. And when he suggests using glasses as a disguise, everyone laughs at him. He
would also have come out as gay in the 90's as a way of trying to increase sales and add controversy (plus the skin-tight red and blue spandex with underwear on the outside was a bit of a giveaway).
Wonder Woman would regard clothing as strictly optional. And killing people as her right. And would be in a lesbian relationship with Emma Frost
The Green Lantern would be a soldier turned military assassin, who tries to be a good guy but is somewhat hampered by the fact that he's a borderline homicidal government stooge.
The Flash would be black, corporate sponsored, and the only genuinely nice guy in sight. Then he would apparently die, but return as Fire-Bird.
Aquaman would be a fish-like woman. Oh, and Green Lantern's girlfriend.
