Where To Start With Marvel Comics Right Now! (2024!)

[@StyxIris]

Just found out my grandpa has the original Amazing Fantasy # 15 copy that he kept since he was 23 lol!

[@spacetaco048]

you do realize one found that is in near perfect condition is worth 3.6 million dollars right...? Your grandpas could easily be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars...

[@StyxIris]

@@spacetaco048I came back to this video for more recommendations and remembered this comment. Yeah, he’s aware of the value, It’s not damaged in any way, its like perfectly new cuz’ he framed it a long time ago. He also has many iconic collections, he is pretty well off from his other ventures so he decided to gift this to me at my 18th birthday as a present. I’m extremely grateful for it! I don’t plan on selling it though.

Damn that’s cool

[@drewtheunspoken3988]

According to the book "All the Marvels" it takes about 5 years to read, well, all of them.

[@connymac6993]

How many books a day?

[@drewtheunspoken3988]

@@connymac6993 I don't know yet. I'm waiting for my copy of the book. I'm guessing a minimum of 10 a day though. That's over 180,000 comics in a five year time frame.

[@connymac6993]

@@drewtheunspoken3988 I was gonna say, 5 years isn't that bad of a timeline.

Dave has an interview with the author of that book, highly suggest

[@satya00155]

Thanks for this guide! I love MCU and am used to reading Manga but was getting confused on where to start with the Marvel comicss

[@Im2lazy4thisCrit]

While not really canon to 616, Ultimate Spider-Man is probably the closest to a Manga you’d find for Marvel Comics

Wanted to give a quick thanks for putting this together. My dad was a big fan of Marvel growing up in the 70s/80s so I’d been somewhat exposed to it (and read some of my own), but after binging Invincible and getting really interested in Marvel again (thanks Spider Verse and the awesome Latour/ Renzi run of Spider Gwen) and wanted a place to start after I finished the large spider events and this video was great. I wanted to hit both the highlights of the past and get up to speed with current events and this video was perfect for that.

[@oldercloudify]

Thanks, I’m overwhelmed by the history!

[@SeanShank87]

I'm getting back into reading comics and i'm currently working on exhausting my DC in take and once I do i'll move on to marvel and start that back up. I appreciate this video.

[@Iraia_Roberts]

5:11 Fresh start that's me. The vibrant colours & texture of comics look really cool now. The artists of all these comics use so many different & amazing art styles. Today I bought my first Marvel comic in 40yrs. I even got covers & a backing to preserve it.

[@boostbear1531]

Thanks for this vid as I am a huge marvel fan but I didn’t know where to start in the comics

Awesome! I just started with the Reading Order guide with the “Road to Disassembled” list and Marvel Knights. Hopefully, I’ll find time to get caught up to modern day at some point. I need to try DC too.

There's a lot of comics I need to read from Marvel Comics. Such as Amazing Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Incredible Hulk, Avengers, X-Men, Guardians of the Galaxy, DareDevil, Ghost Rider, Moon Knight, She-Hulk, Thor, everything. Plus, I need to read every Marvel event from Avengers: The Kree-Skrull War to King In Black. I already have 5 events in Collection Volumes: which are World War Hulk, Secret Invasion, War of Kings, Realm of Kings, and Secret Wars 2015. I'm going to read Secret Wars 1984, Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, and Time Runs Out in preparation for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars in the MCU. But right now, I'm trying to read all of the Ultimate Universe. Starting with the Ultimate Spider-Man comics.

[@sirajisnotmyname]

Can you tell the order of those marvel events in order that they happen in the timeline

[@WhitneySmith-ey7dl]

Try Marvel's Essential TPB series. The entire Silver and Bronze MCU is reprinted in those books. You can usually find them online for about half price, or you can borrow them from library for free.

[@jurassicj2772]

Are the Golden Age comics still canon? Like the Funny Tales and Human Torch stuff?

[@penburger]

I'm reading everything, started with FF#1. I'm currently reading avengers 35

[@SB_WZRD]

how long have you been reading and where are you at now?

[@penburger]

@@SB_WZRD probably about 3 months but I've been reading other things too. I've gotten through every marvel issue from 1961 to 1966

[@lalityadav6662]

​@@penburgerwhere are you reading them? I mean physical copies or digital? Please let me know, as I also wanna start my reading journey from the beginning.

[@ishowvelocity5430]

are you reading it digitally or physically?

[@Im2lazy4thisCrit]

Sheesh, good luck

[@WhitneySmith-ey7dl]

Don't buy new comics for investment. Over 95% of then will be worth cover price or less 30 years from now. Only buy what you enjoy reading. You can also borrow TPBs and Graphic Novels from the library and read them for free. If you want to invest try buying superhero comics at least 40 years old in higher grade from comic conventions, comic stores, E-bay, flea markets and garage sales. Learn how to grade comics and keep that price guide handy.

[@fitnessabcvideo]

Unlike dc which started back in the 30s, marvels main runs started in the 60s, and hoenslty you can go right upto the late 90s. Past that its highly questionable. Unfortunately the 90s also gave birth to the ridiculous issies you needed for crossovers. Choose some books and strapnin for 30 years of great storytelling

[@theminecommanders8013]

DC I usually recommend people start with Crisis on Infinite Earths / after, that or Flashpoint / New 52

I doubt anyone will see this comment but I’m new to comics and I was wondering how to obtain a physical copy of some of the earlier comics. Were they remade or do I have to spend thousands of dollars to get them?

[@spacetaco048]

Quick question, what if I want to do 25 best marvel comics 1961-2000 and then hop onto your top 100 from 1998-2015? Then maybe after that do modern start? So basically, what if I want to do a mix of all 3 of these overall? What do I do?

thinking of doing the same

comics are for people who like stories that never end and even when something shocking happens you can be sure that the status quo always goes back to normal. Basically you have to be a litte insane.

[@tmac731]

With the death of Chadwick Boseman, marvel for some reason killed Tchalla also. I hate that because there’s so many awesome stories about him.

[@langreeves6419]

Judgment Day? One of the worst events I've ever read. Thats saying a lot, considering events are the poorest quality of marvel comics. Well, I wasn't able to read all of it. I bought the comics, but it was too painful to read. Immortal Hulk is awesome.
