Read this BBC feature on Marvel at 80 years old. How has it survived so long and why is the Marvel Cinematic Universe so important to the recent success of the brand?


The series started out as a comic series made by Stan Lee they included many original heroes like spider man, hulk, x-men, fantastic 4 and captain america. They later made many different comics while introducing many different characters, all comics give a backstory to the characters in the marvel universe, later they release the characters in a group to show how they work together (this usually depends on the character) later when the movie comes out it all links to the comics or the origin of the character.
