I'm a big Green Lantern fan, so I'll give DC the edge. Although I love how deep the Marvel cosmic universe is.

We literally just had a HUGE tournament about this. Did you miss it?

huge DC fan but outside the GLs and Darkseid, DC doesnt really develop its "cosmic" setting too much.
Marvel is all about that stuff. so I would give the nod to them. Look at their big comic event right now. they always have giant space stories happening.
eta: Marvel loves Space. DC loves time/alternate universes

As someone who doesn't really read comics I prefer DC just based off the cartoons and movies i've seen. I know nothing about Marvel other then Thanos and GOTG, guess that goes back to DC dominating the animated film scene.
Marvel does seem to embrace the cosmic more though.

Add Planet Hulk to that list Worldbreaker might be best version of Hulk there is.

Haven't read that much DC cosmic stuff but I do think Darkseid is a great character and along with the New Gods did make for some good stuff. And Lobo is pretty cool.
For the Marvel stuff I always thought Galactus was a great unique character - with his having to eat and being a kind of primal force and his coming from the universe before this one and all. It still kind of ticks me off that they have jobbed him out so much in more recent times. The Watchers are pretty interesting but their "just watch or get involved" dilemma is pretty limited.
The Kree/Skrulls and Shiar make for some interesting cosmic empire politics and controversy. I agree that it's a shame the Skrulls are tied up with another studio. Seems it's taken two races to take their place already - in Avengers and GotG.
I also liked the idea of humans as a Terran empire and wrecking stuff they presented in
Avengers Forever.

Here's the short answer.
In DC, Earth is the center of the multiverse.
In Marvel, Earth is just a part of it.

It's marvel for sure but the Green Lantern Corps is still keeping DC in the game as far this topic is concerned. And marvel has nothing like apokolips too.
On that note, I've been reading a fan fiction series for the past few years and he's done a very good job in this regard coming up with the best and most powerful version of Krypton I've ever seen. His Krypton is very well developed and has quite a backstory. He also fused both parts together as his series is a marvel/DC crossover and this topic is great in that regard.

What is everyone's opinion of the Rann Thanagar War. I loved that story and the subsequent Adam Strange, Starfire, Animal Man arc in 52.
