Marvel is looking back on 85 years of storytelling that has featured iconic moments crafted by some of the greatest minds ever in comics, including Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko. Since the company opened its doors as Timely Comics in 1939, the publisher has given the world some of its most legendary superheroes.
Marvel marked the occasion with a heartwarming celebratory video that reminded us all about the power and necessity of good storytelling, especially through the special and unique medium of comics. The video fittingly opens with gleeful kids welcoming the great Stan Lee to discuss comics and his favorite characters. Marvel Studio President Kevin Feige then recalls how the publisher’s famous 1960s bullpen, with Lee, Kirby, and Ditko, helped create some of the most iconic characters in fiction. The era spawned the Avengers, the X-Men, and Marvel’s first family, the Fantastic Four. “The House of Ideas. (Marvel)’s called that for a reason,” Feige asserts.
Founded by Martin Goodman as Timely Comics, the company became known as Atlas Comics in the early 50s before the advent of its Marvel era in 1961, which began with the launch of The Fantastic Four. Marvel’s superheroes include Spider-Man, Iron Man, Wolverine, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Daredevil, Doctor Strange, Black Widow, Star Lord, Captain Marvel, Storm, and Black Panther. Some of its notable supervillains are Doctor Doom, Magneto, Green Goblin, Red Skull, Loki, Ultron, Thanos, Kang the Conqueror, Venom, and Galactus.
