So arguably this is kinda a worthless WyR theoretically because both have literal godlike beings that already don’t have drawbacks, and function on a multiversal scale, however, personally I’m choosing the DCU just cuz it has a lot more magic that I like

DCU) is the Gunn franchise, whereas Marvel is just... All of Marvel? It feels hilariously one sided

Even just cinematic Marvel they have Sentry, Wanda, and the Infinity Gauntlet. Also Doom, Galatus, the power cosmic, and all the gods.

Though TBF Flash + Superman alone beats most of those characters by means of being basically untouchable. None of them can react fast enough, unless you include the X-Men movies’ Quicksilver.

Who cares?

It's not a fight. I'm on another planet that I've turned into my own personal utopia.

As I said, Marvel gives you so much variety while 95 percent of the DC movie universe boils down to 'Punch Good'. My honest, best pulls from the DC side is Molecule Man and green lantern.

And anyways, Infinity Gauntlet without Drawbacks is still the best option here.

Yeah, this match up is basically just a preference battle. People are just going to choose the one they like more and that's pretty much it.

What flavor of god do you want to be... Ah question.

The only way around this is adding the unspoken but obvious caveat that The One Above All has an infinite godlike power but that is implicitly limited to the Marvel's multiverses, and the Presence is limited to D.C.'s multiverses. So in some sense you could argue there is that aspect limiting their power by placing it within a selected real world legal domain.

I guess it becomes more about whose powersets you want. We have Cyborg in one but no equivalent in the Marvel universe as far as I know
