DC has the Justice League, and Marvel has The Avengers, which, we would argue, at this moment are the more popular ones, thanks to the billion-dollar franchise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the film series produced by Marvel Studios and Disney that has started in 2008, and which has made box-office hits as well as critical darlings with their various movies based on their most famous superheroes. Both Marvel Comics and DC Comics have their own flagship team of superheroes that is the main force to save the Earth and the universe when it is threatened by various villains, local and even intergalactic ones.
