Marvel has created many of the greatest superheroes ever, but they didn’t create the superhero concept. That accomplishment goes to DC Comics. DC set the stage for how people looked at superheroes from the beginning, and Marvel has often used DC’s tropes. However, Marvel doesn’t exactly copy DC, setting up a unique universe of its own different. Marvel is known for putting their own spin on things, which is how they’ve conquered the superhero genre.Something Marvel has seemingly taken from DC is the concept of a trinity of superheroes at the center of things. At DC, this trinity comprises Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. They are the leaders of the superhero community and its most important members. At Marvel, Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor were given that mantle early on. They’re the leaders and the key component of teams like Avengers. However, an argument can be made that they aren’t the real trinity. That honor goes to the Hulk, Spider-Man, and Wolverine.Unlike DC, Marvel has had more than one trinity. Iron Man and Thor are Silver Age creations, and they have no precursors in the Golden Age. However, Marvel did have a trinity back then. Marvel’s first two major characters appeared in 1939’s Marvel Comics #1 (by Carl Burgos and Bill Everett) — Namor the Sub-Mariner and Human Torch. Other heroes debuted after, but the true of the star of the era for Marvel was Captain America. Captain America is an undisputed legend, and his debut in Captain America Comics #1, by the incomparable team of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, made Marvel a contender against DC. Captain America became the anchor of the nascent Golden Age Marvel Universe, and soon the three heroes teamed together to battle the Nazis — despite Sub-Mariner and Human Torch often fighting each other before their World War II team-ups. These adventures inspired a young Roy Thomas. Years later at Marvel, Thomas created the Invaders, a team of Marvel superheroes that didn’t actually exist in the Golden Age in any formal capacity.RELATED: Is Marvel Comics Pantheon of Gods Truly Doomed?
