Marvel Comics was founded by Martin Goodman in 1939, and was first known under the name Timely Publications. And ever since then, Marvel hasn’t stopped entertaining us.

The Marvel universe introduced us to thousands of heroes and villains over the time, making it impossible not to get fond of at least one character. And the best part of it is that you can read the comics or watch the movies as an adult, since Marvel developed a reputation for focusing on complex characterization and relatable issues.
