It's been a pretty historic year for both Marvel and DC. The former had four movies in theaters (only two of which they released directly, but still...), while both they and the Warner Bros. owned DC announced exicting slates of upcoming movies which take us into 2020 and beyond.
While they may not have released anything on the big screen this year, DC did make their presence felt on the small one with the likes of returning favourite Arrow and popular newcomers such as Gotham and The Flash. Marvel meanwhile greatly improved Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and continued to develop both Agent Carter and a number of Netflix shows which will reach us in 2015.
As for the comics, both Marvel and DC put out some significant stories, with The Death of Wolverine and recent return of The Joker in Batman being among some of the most significant.
