I first started reading comics with X-men, somewhere in the 180's (I think it was the Lifedeath storyline, all I remember is that Romita Jr. was handling the art). Marvel storytelling really imprinted on me, and some of my favorite characters come from this universe. That isn't to say I haven't enjoyed DC, but I really only collected Batman from them. I'll buy the occassional Superman trade if I heard about a great story, and I am reading the Morrison run on All-Star Superman, but most DC stuff just doesn't do it for me as much as Marvel does.
