Characters in the Marvel cinematic universe.

- Iron Manvs Batman : The best superpower of both is… money!
It is not difficult to see the similarities between these two characters as they are both the richest billionaires in their universe and are often the ones who solve most of the problems in the association. Both inherited a large corporation from their family and used that huge fortune to invest in their purpose of repelling crime.

Both Iron Man and Batman have a genius mind, high-end weapons, and great fighting spirit.
We have nothing but conditions!
- Captain Marvelvs Wonder Woman : The “big sister” of the two universes
If Captain Marvel is one of the two “big sisters” of the Marvel movie universe, then Wonder Woman is DC’s only female superhero. Both are beautiful girls and possess tremendous strength. Captain Marvel and Wonder Woman are both symbols of feminism in a superhero world where the majority of characters are men. With a strong personality, rarely showing weakness, and a series of extraordinary abilities, both make the superhero movie universe more feminine and colorful, while also making everyone admire. admire his powerful superpowers.
Femininity is feminine but strength is abundant!
- Captain Americavs Superman : Symbol of truth, justice and America
If it is said that Iron Man and Batman are the people who help their team the most materially, then it is not an exaggeration to say that Captain America and Superman are the people who help their teammates the most spiritually. Both are symbolic characters for their film universes, and are people who put truth, ideals of life and the nation first. However, even with a little help from the serum, Captain America is just an ordinary person, different from the extraordinary superpowers that Superman possesses.
For a long time, Superman and Captain America have become symbols of America.
- Quicksilvervs The Flash : Super speed makes everyone give up
The similarity of Quicksilver and The Flash is clearly shown through its name: the ability to super speed. Both possess superpowers that dazzle others because of their lightning-fast movement and actions, allowing them to attack enemies before they can react. However, because Quicksilver is a mutant, the superpowers he has are innate, while The Flash gets those powers from another dimension. Therefore, although their abilities are similar, The Flash is slightly better in speed, but Quicksilver has a more stable level of ability.
Quicksilver can dodge Thor’s lightning, while The Flash can run faster than light.
- Deadpoolvs Joker : Distorted psychology and difficult to explain actions
Although Deadpool is not necessarily a villain like the Joker, at first this anti-hero was built as a villain with psychological instability and superhuman healing abilities. As for the Joker, with a genius brain, he is Batman’s oldest and most annoying villain. The similarities between both Deadpool and Joker are that they both have an elusive mentality, strange personalities, and weird jokes. Although Joker does not have special super powers, he is also extremely agile with fighting skills and proficiency in using weapons equivalent to Deadpool.
Psychological instability, crazy actions and special fighting abilities make Deadpool and Joker similar.
- Thorvs Aquaman : A “juvenile” sense of humor hidden behind a muscular body
The heir to Asgard and the king of Atlantis made the audience excited because of the similarities between the two when compared. With similar muscular appearances, humorous and hot-tempered personalities, and great superpowers, Thor and Aquaman make it easy for viewers to associate these two characters together. In addition, both of them did not aim for the throne right from the start but had enough ability to inherit the kingdom, and for that reason, their younger brother was jealous and tried to kill him many times. Another special similarity between Thor and Aquaman is that they both possess weapons that only worthy people can hold – the Mjolnir hammer and the magic trident.
Perhaps Thor and Aquaman are the two characters who like to “tease” others the most in their universe.
- Guardians of the Galaxyvs Suicide Squad : Another army besides the main army of each universe
Coincidentally, besides the Avengers, there is a squad in another dimension that also fights evil, the Guardians of the Galaxy. Besides DC’s Batman, Superman, etc., there also exists a specialized Suicide Squad. Carry out illegal missions in exchange for freedom and save the world. While Suicide Squad gathers all notorious criminals, Guardians of the Galaxy only has one half-human member, and even has…a tree and a raccoon! Although their construction is different, both squads have the same mission: to rescue innocent people from evil forces.
Whether in the Milky Way or on Earth, our mission is the same!
- Avengersvs Justice League : The combination of the century between both universes
When mentioning each individual character, we cannot ignore the similarities between two extremely epic and harmonious combinations of superheroes in the same universe. If Marvel has the Avengers, then DC also has the combination of the century called Justice League. When the entire army fights side by side, they will carry a greater mission – confronting their common enemy, the one who is endangering all humanity. With the formidable power of each person, both the Avengers and Justice League become extremely powerful when gathered together.
