Marvel comics

[Estherpologist]

I know Marvel is a intellectual Marmite, and this may not quite fit "Films" but hopefully someone can help.

For a kid who is enjoying the Marvel movies, and a massive book worm, are there any of the comics/graphic novels that might be an interesting option? (Squirrel Girls has already been ticked off the list.)

Personally, try the small run series or one shots first as slightly easier to get into.

Deadpool tends to be more self contained than the major series but obviously content can be an issue.

I've tried to read xmen etc and I found it difficult to get into due to the sheer volume of stuff out there. I much prefer the indies anyway (Saga, Fables, Y The Last Man are just superb).

Have a look on the r/comicbooks thread on Reddit as there are always people asking this question and may be of more help.
