Although Walt Disney has owned Marvel since 2009, Marvel has a rich history full of phenomenal storytelling, compelling art, and social justice. In 1939, Martin Goodman published the first Marvel comic.

From 1945 to 1965, Marvel also produced romance comics. As one fan said:

"There are two ways of looking at the Marvel Romance comics. The first is to feel that the artistic talents here—which include some of Marvel’s biggest names: Kirby, Colan, Romita, Steranko, Buscema—would have been better utilized on the superhero comics (which they already were), and the second is to enjoy seeing these talents illustrate pretty girls in non-superhero surroundings for a pleasant change. I take the second view."

Once, in an interview with Movie Phone, Stan Lee talked about how Michael Jackson once tried to buy Marvel because he wanted to be Spider-Man:

“I knew Michael Jackson. And with the things he discussed with me, I felt he wanted to be Spider-Man. That was the character that interested him. I think he’d have been good. I think he’d have been very good. But I must say that Tobey Maguire was wonderful.”

Marvel is such a vast universe that there is a never-ending supply of fun facts that even many dedicated, die-hard Marvel fans may not know. Did you know that the original Captain Marvel died from cancer or that a fan created Venom?

Marvel hosted a contest in which they were seeking ideas and designs from amateur writers and artists, and Marvel fan Randy Schueller entered the contest with a black suit redesign for Spider-Man. He was paid $220 by Marvel's then-editor-in-chief Jim Shooter, and his design went on to inspire an entire character who is now one of Marvel's most beloved antiheroes.

Marvel is usually credited with creating the first comic book company to give an African American their own comic book. Black Panther debuted in Marvel's Fantastic Four #52 in 1966, but Black journalist Orrin C. Evans created a comic in 1947.
