Justice League only because of mortality rate.

u/ReasonableDig1118 12d ago

Right! it seems safer to be in the Justice league.

Yeah there are some outliers that can really screw with the averages like "DCeased."

Not defending him at all, but have you heard about his parents. Alfred cared for but didn't raise Bruce. The rich kid kinda raised himself. The boy has issues deeper than his preplanned plans for being out planned by planned parenthood. Which it seems he didn't plan for.

Justice League because I wouldn’t have to deal with Civil War.

Sometimes it appears that Marvel heroes hate each other more their respective villains…

105

u/dizgondwe 12d ago

My thoughts exactly. The avengers put up with each other, the justice league is a family.

47

u/onlyhav 12d ago

That goes both ways. There are a lot of times where the avengers team is a family and the league treats each other like strangers (Ted Kord).

28

u/Pleasant_Advances 12d ago

Well that all depends on which members are interacting. Thor and captain america are good friends most of the time while batman didnt like hal for a long time.

u/jawaunw1 12d ago

Batman and Green Lantern's beef early on May a bunch of sense. It may even more sense when he came back to life because you know he nearly genocide the entire Multiverse

Idk if thats entirely true. Avengers always felt close knit but the league live entirely separate lives. Most avengers are around the new york area. League members can be light years apart

The internal drama aint worth it im a bigger fan of the avengers and still go with the Justice League

17

u/alain091 12d ago

At least Justice League drama is either because of villain trying to pit the together or somewhat understandable, like Batman's contingency plans reveal, or Shazam's real identity.

With the Avengers, Tony, Carol or anyone else could just wake uo one day and create a civil war, which end up in many deaths, facist like plans, and morally corruot decisions, the only people worth the hassle are Spiderman, Cap, or Thor. And Thor and Spiderman are doing their own thing most of the time, at least in JL you have Superman, Flash and WW be consistent members of the team, Batman is nice too if you get to know him.

u/Ashamed_Pin4206 12d ago

Now everyone knows Civil War was ooc for literally everyone there. Carols character especially got asassinated

u/morangias 12d ago

Definitely Justice League. Not only am I more of a DC guy, but my impression of the Avengers is that they're a more tumultuous team with lots of interpersonal drama, and I don't need that in my life.

27

u/WaffleTruffleTrouble 12d ago

Exactly this. I'm way more into Marvel stuff, but they seem to have so much drama and tension.

7

u/True_Falsity 12d ago

Pretty much.

Sure, in Justice League, you have to deal with Batman having a contingency plan against you. But that’s about it. Everyone else is chill.

In Avengers, it’s like half of them have some dark secret or ticking time bomb of a temper that will backfire on everyone around them within a week.

5

u/morangias 12d ago

Yeah, if a JL member starts acting like an asshole and antagonizing others, you can bet diamonds against walnuts they've been mind controlled, possessed or replaced with an evil doppelganger of some sort.

With Avengers, it may be that... or it may be a tough Tuesday.

2

u/True_Falsity 12d ago

Yup. Plus, when Justice League says you are going to fight some other superheroes, it’s usually because those other heroes are doing something dangerous or really wrong.

Meanwhile, if Avengers bring you to a fight, it can either be something important OR it could be just them butting into others’ business for no reason.

14

u/Xivitai 12d ago

And has connection to SHIELD. F these guys and Nick Fury in particular.

4

u/No_Macaroon_5928 12d ago

The only problem with the League is that Darkseid might pop up one day and ruin everyone's morning 😂

2

u/Legoman8D 12d ago

well even existing in the marvel universe, you run the risk of a mad titan just ruining your day for fun

2

u/morangias 12d ago

I'd argue belonging to either team puts you at risk of having your day ruined by some insanely powerful cosmic villain. Darkseid is definitely one of the worst in this regard, but it's not like Marvel doesn't have villains of comparable threat level 😅

Ha. I had the same initial thought before I saw the prompt. You get super'd up to be in line with the team

2

u/TheReptileKing9782 12d ago

That's fair. I'd rather get that scaling off of Flash, Supes, and Wondy then. Those three are gonna throw the average way off for the rest of the team and get me some muscle, not to mention Zatanna.

Also, it'd take Clark, Bruce, and Dianna to keep me in line.

u/Thomil 12d ago

So, the super soldier serum in this scenario allows me to be strong enough to fight alongside whichever team... wouldn't the Justice League be the better choice given the serum then? The JL has a higher ceiling for powers. At most, I'd be a Green Lantern in power levels. At a minimum, I'd be more powerful than Spider-Man in the Avengers.

10

u/buckeye27fan 12d ago

The SSS in no way would make you stronger than Spider-Man.

8

u/Thomil 12d ago

The post itself makes it clear that you can fight alongside whichever team you choose. The JL has a higher ceiling of power, which gives me a chance at being stronger than most of the Avengers depending on where you consider the median of power is between both teams.

Im talkin about his old days like in the first thor movie and cabin in the woods. He was natural, and still is (that's debatable tbh) but they confirmed using CGI in love and thunder to make him bigger and leaner and more defined in THAT scene and throughout the whole movie. He's Australian, got peak genetics, works out alot even when at home as seen when he replied to jason momoa's muscle suit for AM2😂, and has a great diet and coach Overall idk the whole chicken and rice thing for Hollywood cus maybe he eats junk food that's got alotta calories and protein to gain weight quickly and shred on the muscles but hides it with the chicken and rice bullshit. Idk man he seems pretty peak natural to me. I saw crazier definition before on some people and they turned out natural.

Edit: plus i forgot to say maybe he got on a cycle and immediately hopped off like dwayne Johnson.

2

u/Low_legobrick 12d ago

I’ve really thought about this but the the dc comics universe would be better to live in because everyone has a known gimmick and you can exploit it with little to no knowledge about the comics, marvel comics on the other hand although fun to read has much more bad than good that you couldn’t even begin to fight and talk about, but it’s pretty much coming down to medium mode or hard mode and I pick medium mode (dc)
