Best Marvel Comics for Beginners

ORIGINAL POST

Yooo.. Guys

'm super new to comics and trying to build a reading habit, but wow, the Marvel universe is huge! 😅 I’m looking for recommendations on the best Marvel comic to start with as a beginner. I love the MCU movies (Spider-Man and Guardians are my faves), but I’ve never really dove into the comics before.

What’s a great series or standalone that’s easy to follow, has awesome characters, and maybe feels a bit like the MCU vibe? I’m open to anything—modern, classic, or even graphic novels. Also, any tips for a newbie on how to keep up with the lore or not get overwhelmed by all the crossovers and timelines?

Any advice or Tips and Tricks would be awesome! Thanks in advance for helping a comic noob out

Ultimate spider man by brian michael bendis.

Avengers by kurt busiek.

New avengers by Brian michael bendis (look for a reading order online for this one, as it involves several different comic books).

Daredevil by brian michael bendis, followed by daredevil by ed Brubaker (these essentially tell one story).

Alias by brian michael bendis (Jessica Jones makes her debut here).

Captain America by Ed brubaker.

New X-Men by grant Morrison.

Astonishing X-Men by joss whedon.

Punisher max by garth ennis.

Iron man by matt fraction.

Hawkeye by matt fraction.

Immortal iron fist by matt fraction and ed brubaker.

Guardians of the Galaxy by abnett and lenning.

Side Note: these suggestions are not necessarily the best comics based on their respective characters (though imo, many of them are, if not all), but they are what i would consider to be the most new reader friendly entry points possible. Also most of these are what the movies take inspiration from.

if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

The best tip is to follow good writers. Following a character is usually not recommended, as there are tons of bad stories of Spider-man or whatever. That’s why I mentioned some of the best for Marvel above.

Try Brian Michael Bendis’ Ultimate Spider-Man from 2000, you can then dive into the original Ultimate Universe which a lot of the early MCU was influenced by.

weirdmountain · 3 months ago

Marvels by Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross would be an excellent starting point in my opinion.

The History Of The Marvel Universe by Mark Waid and Javier Rodriguez is also excellent, for broad strokes.

Dan Slott and Mike Allred’s Silver Surfer run is great.

Daredevil is consistently one of the best written characters in all of their comics. There are so many great runs of that character that you could pick from. Frank Miller is the first writer whose run on the character is massively acclaimed.

While some people find them to be dated, the original runs of The Amazing Spider-Man and Fantastic Four hold up, in my opinion. Reading them now almost feels like reading classic literature.

Beside these recommendations, other people here in the comments have given you a whole bunch of great recommendations that I did not want to be redundant in repeating

What would be some good comics/series to read, for a beginner?

Posted by Alexandru1408 · in r/Marvel · 2 months ago

I am thinking about getting a subscription to the Marvel.com site and reading their comics, but i don't really know where to start.

I am primarily familiar with the MCU and the animated tv shows that have come out since the mid 1990's, but i haven't really delved deep into the histories of the characters and i've never read a comic.

I would be interesting in some good comics/series that could serve as a springboard into the Marvel comics universe and which could set up the world and characters.

Thank you!

It really depends on who you're interested in, and whether you like the style of old comics or not.

If you DO enjoy the older style, claremont's x men is stellar. As is early days of fantastic four and spiderman.

If you don't vibe with the old style (which is totally fine, I started out with it but nowadays can't stand it), here are some reccs.

X men:

New x men 2004 and/or astonishing x men by whedon, current from the ashes era books, The krakoa era is great but its better if you already know a little more about the X world.

Avengers:

Start at Avengers Dissasembled and read from there, or hickman's avengers and new avengers leading up to secret wars. its a great read.

Fantastic Four:

My FAVORITE book on the current shelves is Fantastic Four by Ryan North. It technically just "ended" but is starting again with a new #1 still from North this month so its not really over. HIGHLY reccomend. Its a great intro to the FF as long as you have barebones knowledge of the team.

The Waid and Hickman runs are also spectacular.

Spiderman:

There are a million spidey runs and a lot of them are very dependent on your taste. My absolute favorite is spectacular spiderman but I'm not sure its the best one for a new reader....Its been so long since I read a good spiderman comic that wasn't super tied up in continuity like the spiderverse stuff, maybe someone else can chime in with spidey reccs.

The advice I heard that I’ve started to follow to get into comics from the MCU is pick a character or two and start with the comics from there. So I started with the Captain America Winter Solider comics and the Wanda/Scarlet Witch comics. A lot of the more popular MCU characters have comics that are compiled into a bigger omnibus that may be a good place to start too.

I like Marvel, but have never read a comic. Where or how do I start?

Posted by mildkabuki · in r/marvelcomics · 8 months ago

I'm one of those casual fans that find certain parts/characters of Marvel very interesting, but have never dove deep into the lore, or any particular subject.

I know there's no definitive way to start, but any soert of direction would be great! I'm looking for something that I could hopefully share with my brother who is still a kid.

I find most Marvel characters relatively interesting, but have really had my interest piqued by Spiderman, Magik, Blade, Black Panther, Iron Fist, and the X-Men. I will definitely still consider recommendations that don't include these protagonist but hopefully it will help point the way towards something fun and interesting :)

I also have no issue if the comics is dated or new, whatever is good is all I ask haha. Thanks all who advise or respond in advance!

All that I've listed are good starting points, but from what I've read, starting from the very beginning is never bad.

Okay, so the best way to do this is pick a character and get a suggested 'run' (thats a bunch of issues/series by a specific writer/artist). Sounds like you played Midnight Suns, eh? :). Below are collected editions you should find easily at a comic store and/or online.

For Iron Fist I would recommend: Immortal Iron Fist: The Complete Collection Volume 1 by Brubaker, Fraction and Aja. This is widely regarded as the best Iron Fist story out there.
For Black Panther I would recommend: Black Panther By Reginald Hudlin: The Complete Collection Vol. 1. This is the modern retelling of the origin, there should be plenty you recognise but also lots to keep you interested.
For Blade I'd actually recommend the current series: Blade vol. 1 by Bryan Hill. Again this will be familiar Blade-fun!
For Spider-Man ...believe it or not a NEW volume is starting soon with a new issue 1! BUT if you wanted something thats definitely accessible and easily readable by your kid brother, I'd recommend: Ultimate Spider-Man Vol.1 by Brian Bendis and Mark Bagley. This is a modern (25 years ago ish retelling of the Spider-Man origin and set in a universe just to the left of the regular Marvel universe. Its widely regarded as great).
For X-Men, believe it or not THIS has also just relaunched with new volumes in the last 6 months or so. You can pick up X-Men and Uncanny X-Men number 1 from most places. BUT if you want more of a complete story start to finish that is leaning big into the sci-fi tropes of X-Men then I'd recommend the collected edition: House of X/Powers of X by Jonathan Hickman. This came out about 5-6 years back and set the X-Men in a new context that ran for 5 years with a distinct beginning middle and end and the start is all collected. There are multiple titles that spin out but you can pick and choose what to read alongside the 'main' events. Any questions you have here, hit up r/xmen and we'll be happy to advise.

Hope that helps!

Have a little think about what “getting into comics” means to you. Are you looking to

Explore the deep lore of characters you like?
Follow the currently ongoing adventures and doings in Marvel Universe?
Read a few self-contained stories and have a taste of the experience?

There’s lots of ways to be “into comics”… and they’re all Correct.

What you should do, which recommendations you should be given, and how you should start and approach things depends on what you WANT out of the experience!

The answer will always be some variation of “You just start reading” (almost all Marvel is beginner friendly except a few eras of X-Men), but more specific recs depend on what “getting into comics” means to you.

Start reading what interests you. Comic universe is not one consistent story that you can catch up to, it's a legitimate universe where things are constantly happening in 20 places at once. The best way to hop on the train is to jump, because it isn't stopping for anyone. You can start wherever you like, and if you don't like it just go to different book. Any necessary details and things that happened before will be more clear with time, or you can just google it. It's like meeting a new friend — you can't experience their past with them anymore, but you can get to know about it and make new experience

Daredevil, Spidey, and cap all have great stories written by author Chip Zdardky. Daredevil (2019), Spider-Man: Life Story, and current Captain America run that started awhile back

There was a series called Marvel Colours by Jeph Loeb & Tim Sale that were retrospective on the early years of a character as the look back with rose tinted glasses of their pass and how they lost someone very important to them. Slider-Man: Blue is about Gwen Stacy, Daredevil: Yellow is about Karen Page, and Captain America: White is about Bucky.

The current Ultimate Universe has Captain America and Doom (tho not the usual version of Doom) on a team, in The Ultimates by Deniz Camp and Ultimate Spider-Man by Jonathan Hickman follows Peter as a middle-aged family man whose now just getting his powers.

Other recs outside of that:

Books of Doom by Ed Brubaker

Trimpth & Torment by Roger Stern

Captain America by Ed Brubaker

What characters/heroes/villians do you enjoy? Start something that sparks your interest. Dont worry to much about the Writer or artist. Focus on what you find enjoyable. Once I learned more about the universe in general, I picked up a few random issues here or there that sparked my interest. And stuck with a few key writers or artists with which I enjoyed their work. Fast forward and you'll soon be picking up a random assortment of stuff just because you enjoy it. You just have to search for what you enjoy. Or what you want to collect.

Deadpool (2012) by Gerry duggan and his subsequent runs. Deadpool/Spider-Man by joe Kelly if you want a mix of both. Spider-Man depends if you like modern comics or classic comics old comics are more wordy and more for like kids if you wanna start with classic just go from Amazing Fantasy 15 and then forwards. If you want modern runs JMS' run is a good starting place which is Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #30 or Nick Spencer's run Amazing Spider-Man (2018) #1.

The comics are basically nothing like the movies but like if you like Raimi's movies def read the original Stan Lee run from Amazing Fantasty 15 all the way to Amazing Spider-Man #101 or read Spider-Man: Blue Raimi took a lot form that. The other movies i'm not a fan of because they don't really pull from comics as a whole. I would say Deadpool/Spider-Man is great for casual readers it's just a pretty fun story it's not one of the best of all time but it's worth a check! You can buy Marvel unlimited or find these online or at a local comic book store both Spider-Man: Blue and Deadpool/Spider-Man are easy to find they just printed new copies. For the orignal Stan Lee Spider-Man books you might have to take a look at The Amazing Spider-Man Epic Collection Vol 1 onwards.

Hawkeye vs. Deadpool (2014) is one of the best comics I've read and it's a great starting point, because it's only 5 issues long and it feels like a movie.

Guardians of the Galaxy (2020) by Al Ewing is a great run! It's a little longer, 18 issues, and it ends with The Last Annihilation series.
