Marvel VS DC the Calendar Edition

I was in the book store browsing 2011 calendars when I noticed that both Marvel and DC have "Women of" calendars.  I quickly compared the two and I think you will agree that Marvel is the clear winner here. 
The marvel calendar has lots of interesting art and great poses.  The graphic actually goes below the fold to allow the graphic to be larger.
The DC calendar is basically just using a bust shot, the art while not bad, is kind of boring with patterned backgrounds that don't really add anything.  The image continues through a transparent  calendar. 

Neither is bad, but Marvel clearly wins this battle.  If I could only buy one of the too, I would make mine Marvel.

Agreed. At least Marvel varied the pose!

Steve-I think Marvel took it as art and DC used stock images. At least that is what it feels like.

Marvel is better but I don't go for chick superhero pinup calendars. I'd have preferred action scenes with a mix of characters. I don't think either is getting my greenbacks.

Interesting idea for a calender, but I agree with the comment above, action sequences might of been better
