This is not true. At least from my grade school experience. Everyone read Marvel and Image. DC was not popular in the 90's save for the death of Superman, which was written because most DC books were stale back then. I was a big fan fo the Flash and GL runs during the 90's though.

It ebbs and flows. Its kind of like a see saw with one or the other enjoying surges of popularity.

Back in the early 70's when I started reading I became a Marvel fan and I think the main reason was those ole Marvel cartoons with the great theme songs. Though to be honest when I first started I did give several DC comics a try but they totally left me flat.

Now people who grew up with Superfriends probably gravitated to DC. People who grew up with the X-men cartoons probably went to Marvel.

There is such a synergy between the comics, the cartoons and the movies that I think the landscape of who's on top is always changing.
