Marvel Premier Collection Will Introduce MCU Fans to Classic Comics

Superheroes have come to dominate Hollywood in recent years. Despite this, the superhero comics that inspired the MCU have not seen a major increase in readership. Part of this is due to the difficulty in finding a foothold in the vast wall of continuity that is comic book history. However, Marvel Comics will attempt to address this with the new Marvel Premier Collection, reprinting classic stories in special editions aimed at new readers.

“We’ve all heard the age-old questions: ‘Where do I start? What is that one run you just cannot miss? What should I read before or after the next big movie or television show to have the best experience?’ The Marvel Premier Collection program is our answer to each of those questions,” said Dan Buckley, President of Marvel Comics and Franchise. “Comics are at the heart of everything we do at Marvel, so this collection will be our go-to publishing line for any and all fans looking for a way into — or further into — the Marvel Universe. These titles will not be the only place to start of course, but they will be one of the best.”

Beyond the original storyline, the new edition will contain an exclusive forward by Frank Miller and an afterword by actor Charlie Cox. This gives long-time readers some incentive to check out the Marvel Premiere Collection as well.
