For those who sometimes get confused by the brands, DC Comics includes characters like Superman, Batman, Flash Gordon and the Green Lantern. Their competitors at Marvel have the rights to Spider-man, the Hulk, Captain America, the X-men and the Fantastic Four. Both are big properties.
Blakely firmly believes to win this battle they need to provide the best, not necessarily the first, game to market. The two will likely never go head to head on any console (with overlap limited to the PC audience), which should give both a chance to survive on their own merits, but MMOs remain dominated by the PC market and the competition will be fierce. According to Blakely though, not only are they committed to being the best - if not necessarily the first of the two comic MMOs - but SOE has a renewed commitment to quality and will provide them with the time necessary to launch their game correctly.
