I think, historically speaking, if you had to characterize one of the Big 2 as being 'No Fun Allowed', it would have to be DC.

And I don't think that's even a criticism, from a certain point of view that seriousness can be an asset, but I think as a generalization you could be a lot more wrong

I don't actually disagree, though I wouldn't use those specific words. A lot of it has to do with how Marvel and DC approach the medium, I think. Marvel likes their stories to be pretty straightforward and simple -- nothing wrong with that, but it shows how much they cling to the Stan Lee days. (Also a product of how they approach writing scripts.) DC prefers more complex works built around their characters' strengths, though how effective it is depends on the writer's skill. It might also be because of how superheroes are treated in each successive universe -- with Marvel they're distrusted or feared, especially if they're mutants. With DC, they're respected and revered.

I'm reading through Frank Miller's Daredevil run and I'm actually quite struck by how much it reminds me of 80s DC, though he didn't actually work for DC until later. It's actually really good, which I wasn't expecting. In a way, it's like all the really good Batman stories he didn't write.
