10 or even 5 years ago I might have said the DCAU. But by sheer longevity, consistency, and ability to reach a broader audience, I gotta give it to the MCU. DCAU depending on you you ask, has "Batman and Harley Quinn" as part of it's canon.. It lived long enough to see itself become the villain..

I mean see mcu is iconic and legend and earned its continuation anyway. but dceu still had a good start and I still equally think that it has good films and should be continued despite what critics say

I adore the dcau but the mcu had a plan vs the dcau which lucked into success and connecting it all.

DCAU, because it actually has versatility, it's shows are able to all feel different and don't all have the same tone. The MCU gets slightly more or less jokey but even than with the same type of humor, and characters talking the same way(even with different groups of characters!)

Also different episodes of a single DCAU show often feel more different than the MCU movies do.

dcau cause there are no contradictions like they are in the mcu sometimes like shield looking like its a new organisation in iron man but later find out has been around longer, also the thanos in avengers not matching the thanos in IW. And fury actually knowing about aliens since the 90s.

The DCAU pioneered the shared-universe concept and (imo) did it best! Personally, the MCU isn't my preferred "flavor" for the Marvel universe. It's technically impressive, but it's characters don't resonate with me a fraction as much as DCAU's. The DCAU also benefits from the shere hours of content.

Should Miles Morales have his own superhero name, besides Spider-Man?

Yes, if Peter Parker is still around

The general population will never fully associate anyone else with Spider-Man but Peter, Miles deserves his own identity.

There are 4 green lanterns. 6+ Robins 3 flashes and in young justice 2 aquamen. I don’t see a problem with 2 spider-men

Generally not a big fan of this mantle multiplying (except for GL kinda) I just tolerate it at this point, like really I feel it detracts from the significance of a character holding the mantle and I imagine it's somewhat confusing for the inuniverse characters who don't know their real identities.

I think he has a perfect costume to take on the "Scarlet Spider" moniker, and it would be an interesting change. It does kind of feel like Scarlet Spider is more of the unofficial "Robin" or "Nightwing" to Spider-Man.

He should be called Spin in the comics, like that Spidey show, lol

I'm not against the idea of Miles having his own identity it's just that every time they've attempted to call him different, Spin or Spidey, it comes off as derivative or lazy. When you look at a character like Ben Riley, Spiderman was a stepping stone for his arc, not the other way around.

While I absolutely detest the idea of multiple Spider-Men swinging around simultaneously, I feel Miles has earned the mantle (even in a meta way) and renaming him, now, comes off as a demotion. Honestly, he should've just been left to be the one, and only Spider-Man of the Ultimate universe. (😉)
