The people at DC are some of the most open minded, creative, educated people I have ever met. You’re dealing with characters that are global icons with an audience. It’s not about what DC wants to do, it’s about what the audience will respond to. ~ Jason Badower
The company declared: "A deep respect for our obligation to the young people of America and their parents and our responsibility as parents ourselves combine to set out standards of wholesome entertainment." Henceforth, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and DC Comics other superheroes would never take a life. Focusing on the market of young readers and their parents, the company did not go deeply into the horror and crime comics that outsold superheroes in the late 1940s. ~ J. L. Bell
It's kind of a difference based upon mood and vibe of the material. There's something about the stoic heroes of DC that could be contrasted against the hyperkinetic heroes of Marvel. ~ Alex Ross

About DC Comics edit

  • I wanted to put a reference to masturbation in one of the scripts for the Sandman. It was immediately cut by the editor [Karen Berger]. She told me, "There's no masturbation in the DC Universe." To which my reaction was, "Well, that explains a lot about the DC Universe.”
