I expressed my desire for the Secret Empire miniseries to end with the return of Mar-Vell the Kree warrior and hero who operated on Earth as the original Captain Marvel.
So even beyond the grave, Mar-Vell is helping the innocent and inspiring the next generation of heroes.
In last week’s blog I gave a quick summary of the Image Comics I’m currently reading and why I enjoy them so much. The one I’ve recently dove into and currently is my favorite is Invincible by Robert Kirkman.
A completely different type of tale by the Walking Dead writer, Invincible begins as the story of 17 year old Mark Grayson who finally develops superpowers he inherits from his father.
If you’ve been reading this blog for the last few weeks or any of my previous writings, you know I am a big fan of Marvel and DC Comics. But over the years there have been occasions where I have discovered wonderful works of comics from Image Comics.
Untold Tales was a series written by Kurt Busiek and featured stories taking place between the early issues of Amazing Spider-Man. Some issues featured classic Spider-Man foes, but the rest introduced new villains created by Busiek.
I think some of them would make great Spider-Man movie villains.
In my opinion Gruenwald’s stories were big, action packed, important, and made you think.
Not only were they adventure stories, but they explored the mechanics and moral issues behind being a super hero in the Marvel Universe
