While famous figures from both sides of the aisle have often been quick to dismiss the ongoing rivalry between Marvel and DC, that hasn’t stopped the fans from continuing to find new topics to fight about, with a recent tweet from The Atlantic staff writer Jemele Hill inspiring fresh debate on the relative merits of two major villains.
