To identify each state\u2019s most popular superheroes, they used SEMRush keyword volume data. Once they had their list of 20 superheroes total (10 for DC Universe and 10 for Marvel Universe), they used Google Trends to see which state googled which superhero the most. For each state\u2019s most popular comic book universe, they analyzed each state on Google Trends to find out which of the comic book universes they googled the most. <\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know if the results are surprising or not. Obviously some searching comes from buzz around upcoming releases. So, is Flash a true state favorite, or are just a lot of residents curious about the upcoming movie? I mean, is Morbius <em>really<\/em> Alaska&#8217;s favorite superhero, or did a lot of Alaskans just not believe anyone was going to make a Morbius film so they hit Google to find out? See what I&#8217;m saying.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, no more stalling.

I can&#8217;t believe that Doctor Strange and Spiderman are nowhere to be found. I get Illinois going with Superman, because Metropolis is Chicago. However, New York also went Superman? Come on New Yorkers, Gotham is New York. Also, have we as a society decided that Harley Quinn is a superhero? I love Harley Quinn, particularly the cartoon on HBO Max, but a hero? Honestly, this list creates more questions than answers!<\/p>\n<p>You can read the official write up <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usdish.com\/news\/blog\/marvel-vs-dc-your-states-favorite-comics\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Do you enjoy The Magical Buffet?
