Marvel

Timely Publications, the 
company that would one day 
become Marvel Comics, 
approach to hero-making was 
somewhat different. Where DC 
showed gods in men’s clothing, 
Marvel wanted to elevate Men 
(and Women) to a god-like 
stature. Frail mortals such as 
Peter Parker and Dr. Banner 
were suddenly endowed with 
god-like capacities but with 
all-too human frailties. Anger, 
rage, indifference, contempt, 
mortal weaknesses which gave 
Marvel’s heroes a more human, 
more understandable 
every-man quality.
