Marvel didn’t start with superheroes. It was founded in 1939 as Timely Comics, then became Atlas Comics in the ’50s. Back then, they were just trying to survive. The comic industry was in chaos after the U.S. Senate went after horror comics for supposedly corrupting kids. So Atlas (Marvel at the time) just did whatever was selling—romance, westerns, anything. Meanwhile, DC Comics was killing it with Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.
Everything changed in 1961, when Stan Lee, Marvel’s resident creative genius teamed up with artist Jack Kirby to create the Fantastic Four. These weren’t perfect heroes. Fans loved it. The comic took off, and suddenly Marvel had a hit. From there, things snowballed. Spider-Man, Iron Man, Ant-Man, Thor, and Hulk—all rolled out in the ’60s. Marvel became the place for heroes with heart and flaws.https://paragraph.com/@0xd6ff56c5130dae8cfe57c0a608885a3b34f64f5b/the-spider-man-saga-walking-through-the-drama-behind-the-spider-man-sensation?share=true 0 reply
