In the comments section of this post over at NewsHog Desert Island Boy said something that I think is worth pondering. He brought up comic book hero’s and their relationship to politics. I would like to take this a step further.

Historically there have been two major competing comic book publishers, DC Comics and Marvel. DC carries Superman and Batman, while Marvel carries Spiderman and X-Men. Based on your knowledge of the Democratic and Republican party’s, which comic book publisher best represents them and why? Base your reasoning on characters if at all possible. Just so you know, my initial take is that DC are the Republicans (Justice League) and Marvel the Democrats (X-Men) but I want to know what you think.
