Marvel Legendary 2nd Ed. Vs. DC Legendary (Solo & Multiplayer)

Given that both of these games are relatively recent releases and operate on the same core system to the point of being - dubiously - capable of - uneven, to say the least - integration, does anyone have a perspective on which game makes best use of the core mechanics (with the obvious addition of the Hope/Fear mechanic in DC)?

Which is the superior product at this juncture? Which would you recommend if a solo board game enthusiast was going to purchase only one and why? What about differences in Multiplayer, if that's an additional point that distinguishes them?

I've recieved mixed reports with some saying that the DC version is uneven and unpolished, particularly in its new mechanics, and others suggesting that its a deeper and more robust experience.

BGG has the complexity and rating of Marvel 2E at 2.5/5 and 9/10 while DC is 1.5/5 and 8.7/10, so that's curious to me as well.
