It’s hard to believe that it’s been about ten years since Iron Man was released, the film that kicked off the entire Marvel Comics Universe. We had no idea what we were in for back then—when Nick Fury appeared in the after credits scene, it gave fans reason to rejoice. “Are they really going to make The Avengers?”
Yes. Of course they were!
At long last, an interlocking comics movie universe was born, one which resembled the comics we’ve been reading since we were kids, where all the characters share the same universe and cliffhangers from one story lead to the next. Has it really been twenty movies already?
Yes. Yes, it has.
No one has ever attempted this before. DC is making a valiant effort, but they have a lot of catching up to do. Right now it seems like Wonder Woman is carrying their whole campaign.
But Marvel fans are in a fan's paradise, revelling in a plan that has taken its time to unfold, with the different Infinity Stones appearing early and playing major parts in the entire connected canon. See if you have what it takes to pass this Marvel quiz and we'll gift everyone with a Marvel hubby!
