      I think Tony Stark would wipe the floor with Bruce Wayne.

      I prefer the technology in Marvel. I think, as far as the films go, they just do a better job of using them and explaining them. In DC everyone seems to be a god of somewhere, seems a bit of a cop out. Except for Batman. But then Batman is awesome.

      I think Starks technology is used really well, the details are always really good. Like the use of Vibranium or Adamantium. They’ve really thought it through. Everything has a limit so it makes it more real.

      Excellent question. I’ve had to stop myself writing a whole essay.

      I’ll go with Iona. I’d say the science in both universes is rather ‘creative’, but Iron Man bucks the trend and tips me onto the side of Marvel… when you can have cool powers, but also take the time and imagination to come up with plausible science, that is proper writing!
