What does DC and MCU stand for?

Disclaimer: For a closer picture of the difference in both studio’s filmography, I will be focusing solely on the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), rather than all films that are under the names of both brands. Warning for some spoilers on these films.

Why do people say DC Comics?

While even comic book readers might not be able to say what the “D.C.” stands for with confidence, it’s a strange bit of history too good for anyone NOT to keep on hand. For those wondering, the “D.C” does technically stand for Detective Comics.
