Marvel has a pretty hevay amount of action going on in Canada.

Not only are Deadpool, Wolverine and others Canadian, but Canada has it's own Avengers equivalent and other shit.
>>
Speaking for DC, going out in a gaudy costume to fight crime originated in America though you did have vigilantes,Occultists, adventures and gifted individuals who existed before.

DC's branches out every now an again, but Marvel really is stuck in New York. Fuck different countries, they have a problem putting characters in different boroughs

Something that always sticked out to me when it comes to superheroes is gow Gaiman describe them through Lyta in Sandman where it's kind of a rich person's hobby, something Yuppies looking for a adrenaline rush. There was just a sense of the mundane when in a fantasy world where women with super strength just ends up as a single mother living in a small apartment in a big city.

Correct. Just villains.

No, because France doesn't suffer from diminishing middle class, homelessness, lack of a proper education and social welfare. Thus, they have a lot lower crime rate.

In the 80s DC had a U.N. sponsored global superhero team called the Global Guardians (I think). Fire, the green-haired Brazilian heroine started out on that team, as did Ice who was Scandinavian, and the French Crimson Fox. I also remember Tasmanian Devil and the team leader was some Irish dude named Spring-Heeled Jack.

I don't remember much about them beyond occasional guest appearances in Justice League books. I don't think they ever had their own book, or if they did it was very short lived.

The idea in Marvel seems to be that every country has its own heroes and villains (even if America probably has more than average), having their own off-screen adventures that readers will never see because most writers and readers just aren't interested.

He did. His very first appearance was him capturing the Red Skull and then defeating Crossbones and his other henchmen to be put on trial in Germany. They escaped obviously, but he tried.

>>94509577
Collective Manmay have a point, but he's confusing an Inhuman from Attilan that's also saved the world several times with an American, undermining his point.
Also, is that Saitama?

Kill them off for cheap drama without even giving them any buildup while Ironman gets out unscathed, then bring in some identical knockoffs so they can keep the characters around anyway.

Depends on the context, if it is a question, if it is a dependent clause or not etc. But simple sentences often use Subject Verb Object.

It really isn't the biggest problem in that image, biggest problem is why is an organisation trying to destroy the world located in Berlin of all places? Sure, Berlin is the capital and the biggest city, but outside of that it really isn't that notable. Hamburg would work better due to having the biggest harbor. Frankfurt due to being an economically important hub. Even a small village in the middle of nowhere would work better as they are the places where all of these specialized world market leaders are, they could pull thier strings completly unnoticed as really nobody pays attention to them. Also, you could easily make them own tech on pair with Stark tech as long as it is in thier highly specialized field.
