With so many teenage heroes in comics, we are only going to select five from each of the companies and pit the two most comparable each of them against each other to see who would win the respective battles and eventually find out which company could come out on top in the end. With that out of the way, let's get on with it.
1. Vision / Jonas Vs. Cyborg / Victor Stone
On one corner, we have the son of a very powerful android, Vision. Named after his father, Jonas is an improvement on the original. Apart from having all the powers of his predecessor, he can now also manipulate energy, shapeshift and time travel.
On the other corner, we have the part-human, part-machine, known to many as Cyborg, the high school student who was cybernetically enhanced after a fatal accident costed him his limbs and internal organs.
Jonas can shapeshift, manipulate his density, time-travel and all that. Buy that is just the tip of the iceberg with Cyborg's powers. Sure, he can't time-travel or manipulate his density but he can hop through from one place to another and also between dimensions through the use of his boon tubes. In the Dark Knights Metal event, we get to see Victor's true potential as Cyborg. He was able to control multiple machines from various world's simultaneously. Cyborg's powers are actually more machine based than Jonas', he could tap into the internal system of the android and end him from the inside. Although, that would be very difficult to do as Joans is very powerful in his own right, Cyborg would surely win at the end.

WINNER: CYBORG - DC
DC: 1 MARVEL: 0
2. Supergirl / Kara Zor-El Vs. Ms. America / America Chavez
Ms. America, AKA, America Chavez, on the other hand, was raised in a Utopian parallel dimension out of the multiverse and time itself. After experiencing her parents save the planet, she wanted to become a hero herself, but since there was nothing that needed saving in a Utopian dimension, she moved to Earth instead.
Supergirl is sometimes known as the most powerful teenager on the planet. She has every superpower superman can boast of. Ms. America, on the other hand, can only boast of superhuman strength, flight capability and her ability to move at speeds that almost exceed the speed of light. Despite her lack of a plethora of abilities like Supergirl, the power levels of America's few abilities exceed those of Kara's. America is usually compared to Superman himself. Yeah, Superman. She can even punch holes in the fabric of reality itself. Thus, it would be no surprise that a fight between these two would end with Supergirl on the ground.
WINNER: MS. AMERICA - MARVEL
DC: 1 MARVEL:1
3. Raven / Rachel Roth Vs. Kid Loki
You all know Loki, the Asgardian god of Mischief and renowned magician. During the Siege event, Loki was killed and resurrected in a kid's body. The kid not only has the same abilities as the original, but is now a force for good.
Both of them are very powerful though young magicians with evil backgrounds. A duel between these two would be one for the ages as both have similar powerset. Kid Loki, as the god of mischief has the usual Asgardina enhancements as well as profound mystical powers and knowledge. Loki is very cunning, so he could easily talk his way out of this one, but the raw power than Raven possesses is enough to shut the god up. Raven has various abilities she could easiliy conjure up to defeat Loki. Granted, she would have a tough time keeping the Asgradian god down, she would eventually win in the end.

4. Superboy / Connor Kent Vs. Totally Awesome Hulk / Amadeus Cho
Amadeus Cho, AKA Totally Awesome Hulk, is the genius son of world-renowned geneticist, Helen Cho. He is one of the smartest people in the Marvel Universe and probably the smartest teen there. He used his intellect to be able to transform into a very smarter version of the Hulk as he has full control over his Hulk form, unlike his predecessor.
Superboy is the son of Superman, which is a really a big deal, whether or not he is just a clone or not. When it comes to strength, he would probably defeat Amadeus in a simple arm wrestle match. But in a one-on-one battle to the death, Amadeus' gifted intellectual prowess would shine as he would easily device a way of depowering and defeating the Superboy within seconds of fighting him.

5. Dick Grayson / Nightwing / Robin Vs. Peter Parker / Spider-Man
These two were mentioned earlier and since they as both the poster boys of teenage heroes in their respective companies, it is only befitting that they end the list and decide who would take home the hypothetical championship award.
Dick Grayson was a young circus performer, until his parents were murdered and Batman took him under his wing to become his sidekick, known as Robin. He would later grow up to become the superhero known as Nightwing.
Peter Parker, on the other hand, was a scruny teenager, who was usually bullied by his peers, until he was bitten by a radioactive spider which gave him various spider-like abilities, eventually prompting him to become Marvel's most popular superhero, Spider-Man.
Nightwing was trained by the best in the business, none other than Batman himself and has fought alongside him for various years. Spider-Man didn't get any training, he got his abilities by chance and has used his abilities and high intellect to face off ain't various supervillains, so much so that he has his own rogues gallery.
Spider-Man's spider sense and super fast reflexes gives him an excellent edge in battle, enabling him to dodge attacks right before the hit him. Nightwing is very fact though but, that wouldn't be enough to defeat the human spider. Sorry, Nightwing but even Batman would have a hard time defeating Spider-Man.
