Polls like this should always, always have a "BOTH" option, for fairness' sake.

What do you mean by "attractive?" If all you mean is physical looks in the Playboy Bunny sense, then there is very little difference between the two.

Marvel definitely has richer characters, both male and female.

Marvel writes characters.

DC writes archetypes. At least up until they started copying Marvel in the '80s.

The DC characters are more like classical mythology (and that's not a bad thing). Marvel characters are more like Shakespeare. And that is certainly nowhere more apparent than in the female characters.

When I think of classics like Ronin, Watchmen, The Dark Knight Returns, Batman: Year One/Two/Three, Wolfman's & Pérez's stupendous resurrection of the Titans, John Byrne's revamp of Superman, and Alan Moore's truly phenomenal run on Swamp Thing, I can only think of how "NOT like Marvel" DC was in the '80s. They owned the decade.

Then it's Marvel.

DC has Wonder Woman and ... umm ... umm ... I'd have to Google it to find more beyond the heroines who are just female versions of pre-existing super heroes (Batgirl, Supergirl, Hawgirl, etc.)

Marvel has a far richer lineup of super heroines.
