The DC and Marvel Heroes Forum: Beware the Batman and Other Topics

Hello, everyone. Welcome to another post on The DC and Marvel Heroes Forum. Usually in the past, I would present only one topic per forum post for The DC and Marvel Heroes Forum, but after last time's post, I decided that from now on, if more than one topic to feature for discussion at ths forum comes up in mind at once, I put them together in the same post (same rule goes for the other forums I run at theOtaku.com), but of course, if if only topic comes to mind at a time, just one in the post. ANyway, onto the topics:

Topic 1
Imagine yourself a character in the DC Marvel Universe. If you can be any Marvel Universe super-hero (or super-heroine for female readers), who would it be? Lots to chosse from: whether it's Hulk, Iron Man, Wasp, Venom, Black Cat, Deadpool, Wolverine, Namor the Sub-Mariner, or whatsoever. You're welcome to talk about why.

Topic 2
Imagine yourself a character in the Marvel Universe. If you can be any Marvel super-villain (or super-villainess for the female readers), who would it be? Lots to choose from: whether its' Dr. Doom, Dr. Octopus, Electro, Green Goblin, Crimson Dynamo, The Leader (the Hulk villain), Gorilla Grodd, Captain Cold, etc. You're welcome to talk about why.

Note that Marvel Universe does not cover all Marvel-owned super-hero content (Kick-Ass is an examples of non-Marvel Universe Marvel Comics superhero works), in case some of you reading this post are new to the Marvel Universe experience.

Topic 3
What are your thoughts about the new animated Batman T.V. series Beware the Batman? Is it one of the best animated versions of Batman you've ever seen? What do you think of Katana as Batman's sidekick? What do you think Batman's voice (example: do find the actor's talents in voicing the Dark knight himself superior to that of Kevin Conroy)? Any favorite episodes so far? Any thoughts on the villains appearing on the show?

Topic 4
What are thoughts regarding the currently running animated seriesUltimate Spider-Man? Any favorite team-ups on the show? Any thoughts on character development? Do you find that the actor voicing the web slinger himself is among the bst ones to voice him for animation? What Spidey team-ups you like to see in future episodes? Would you say it's among the best animated Spidey shows to recommend to young viewers to watch?

Topic 5
What are your thoughts regarding the new animated series Avengers Assemble? Would you say it's the best animated version of Marvel's The Avengers you've seen so far? Any favorite episodes? Favotite Avengers teammate(s) on the show? What about the voice acting and/or visual quality?

Any favorite stories/storyarcs so far? What characters are your favorites? Any thoughts about the costume makeover the New 52 brought on the DCU characters (ex: Superman's armor)?
