Welcome back nerd squad, my name is Roya Destroyaa and this is Top 10 Nerd.
The JL and Avengers both have a lot in common, ever-changing rosters of superheroes with
their main core group and many adventures.
But while they are both awesome, some may argue that the avengers have the edge over
the justice league, not necessarily power wise but as a whole product.
So let’s take a look at the top 10 REASONS THE AVENGERS ARE BETTER THAN THE JL.
BE SURE TO CHECK OUT OUR FLIPSIDE VIDEO SO YA CAN’T SAY WE’RE BIASED!
In the number 10 spot WE HAVE A MUCH BIGGER ROSTER.
Both teams have had their fair share of members drifting in and out, but the avengers top
out at having more team changeovers than the justice league.
While some may not agree with the temporary feeling of having so many different versions
and spinoffs of the team, this guarantees that there is a team of heroes for everyone.
If you grow bored of the classic Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America team or whatnot, there’s
always another team of characters to keep you entertained.
Coming in at number 9 HIGHER COMIC COUNT.
Like the reason above, having way more story arcs to choose from ensures that there’s
going to be something for almost every one of different tastes.
Unless, of course, you’re a diehard DC fan who can’t stomach anything Stan Lee has
touched.
Using just a rough count from their comic vine pages, the JL have had about 1700 issues,
while the avengers have appeared in over 3 times that, at more than 6000.
So you will literally never run out of reading material.
I know some of you take that as a challenge.
Next, at number 8 are THE SETTINGS.
Take a quick think about the places that The Justice League operate out of.
Gotham City, Metropolis, Coast City.
Now take a think about some of the places the Avengers operate out of.
New York City, London, Washington.
These are real places, and we are more likely to find connection with the stories or feel
more deeply embedded in them if we are familiar with the settings.
I mean when Coast City is destroyed we’re like, oh snap, but when New York is destroyed,
we’re like OH SNAPPP.
In the number 7 spot THE QUALITIES OF THE CHARACTERS.
While members of the Justice League may oftentimes come off as extremely unbelievable and unapproachable,
the opposite goes for the avengers.
You’ve got tony Stark, who has battled with alcoholism.
Bruce banner, who faces the detriments of his anger every day.
Black Widow - Who only ever knew the training and brainwashing of the red room.
Compared to the god-like characteristics of the core justice league team, the avengers
are more human and more likeable because of it.
I mean, other than Thor.
The guy actually is a god.
Coming in at number 6 IS THE MOVIE COMPARISON.
We have some inside Intel to thank for this one.
As we all know, the justice League movie is coming out this November and we all eagerly
await to see if it will match up to its competitors movies.
But according to one inside source, the answer is no.
That would be actress Diane Lane, who plays Superman’s mother Martha Kent.
When asked if first off she could reveal any spoilers, and second off if the movie was
as good as the avengers, her reply was ‘no and no. short but honest, I hate to disappoint’.
Of course she had yet to see a full cut at the time of being asked that, but hey, just
one lady’s opinion – be prepared.
Next up, at number 5 IS BETTER CHEMISTRY.
And I’m not talking about Black Widow’s chemistry with like half of the team.
Within the Avengers, there is much more camaraderie and working together, even though we’ve
previously stated justice league has better organization and hierarchy.
But with the justice League, though they are doing their job and doing it well, it doesn’t
mean they all click; Batman and Hal Jordan constantly are at odds.
Batman and Superman tried to kill each other.
It just goes to show that friendship is pretty important in the workplace.
Up next at number 4 IS THE ICONIC NAZI COVER.
Hey, any team that bashes Nazis is a great team to me1 both teams have had their fair
share of fights against Nazis, but none so iconic as the cover of Captain America comics
#1.
In fact, this cover was published even before the states decided to go to war against Germany,
and 75% of Americans did not want to go to war with.
The cover was so daring that Marvel, known as timely at the time, was receiving threats
and had to hire police to be outside their office.
DC may have published the brave and the bold, but it’s Marvel who lived by this.
In the number 3 spot ARE THE ACTORS.
Whether you’re looking for talent or eye candy, the cast of the Avengers has it all.
Not to say the Justice League is lacking in skill or looks, but please: Chris Evans, Chris
Hemsworth, Scarlet Johanssen, Tom Hiddleston?
Maybe not an Avenger, but an Avenger villain -- Okay maybe I’m focusing a bit more in
the looks department here, but you got to admit.
Even if you have no clue what you’re watching, some of these people will make you forget
that.
Coming in at number 2 THEY GOT THE HULK.
Yes I am biased for this one.
For those of you who have asked me you already know why this is so high on the list, but
come on, the Hulk is awesome.
He’s got a great backstory, he’s a poor tortured soul, he’s simple yet multidimensional.
Yeah, yell at me all you want.
One real good reason the Avengers could be better than the Justice League is this guy.
And finally, in the number 1 spot NOT SO GOSH DARN OP.
Superman literally has every power coming out of him under the sun because of the sun?
Batman can defeat just about anyone given the prep time.
Green Lantern is only limited by his own willpower.
On the other hand we have a guy with a shield who is strong but has limits, a lady dressed
in black who is deadly but vulnerable.
A guy who loses most of his power without his hammer.
It’s refreshing to see superheroes who are not written so powerful that they become snooze
fest.
So those were the top 10 RASONS THE AVENGERS ARE BETTER THAN THE JL.
