Forget about continuity, universes, timelines, etc; it's all very confusing, even to creators/fans. The best way to jump in is to just start reading.

How much time do you have for comics? The answer determines how expansive recommendations are. Regardless, don’t try to read everything. First appearances & early origins are not always good starting points—older comics can be an acquired taste for modern audiences. Remember, there are so many other great characters/stories/publishers to explore (and not all comics are about superheroes).

Think about your favorite stories from other media. What you might like to read in a comic? Are you more interested in good storytelling or becoming a Marvel knowledge nerd?

Creative teams change often and characters get re-worked e.g. I never cared for Hawkeye until Matt Fraction’s run. Focus on well-received and relatively self-contained stories. Pick an interesting character/team and seek their “greatest hits”. You may encounter the occasional unexplained reference/character/event—just ride along (Wiki if necessary).

Vision | Tom King
New X-Men | Grant Morrison | X-Men 1
Astonishing X-Men | Joss Whedon | X-Men 2
Uncanny X-Force | Rick Remender | X-Men 6

Events/crossovers can be fun and/or tedious. They are most appreciated by readers well-versed in relevant continuity. Generally, the best non-event comics integrate these seamlessly or avoid them entirely (notwithstanding editorial/executive mandates). Regardless, you may want to familiarize with major plot points.

Modern Marvel events/crossovers:

For Marvel Comics



How to Get Into Comic Books (13:40) | Patrick Willems

Consider your intent/commitment. Think about your favorite stories/characters from TV, movies, games, books, etc. Do you seek quality storytelling or encyclopedic Marvel knowledge? Plan to collect? What time/resources are available i.e. how many comics could/should be read before burning out?

Don’t try to read everything—there’s too much. Forget about “catching up”, continuity, universes, and timelines; it's all very confusing, even to creators/fans. Older comics can be an acquired taste for modern audiences, so first appearances/early origins may not be the best starting points. Creative teams change often, characters get re-worked, and origins are re-told (e.g. I never cared for Hawkeye until Matt Fractions’ run).

Pick an interesting character/team and seek their “greatest hits”. Don’t get stuck “preparing”, just start reading. Focus on well-received, relatively self-contained, and complete stories. You may encounter the occasional unexplained reference/character/event—just ride along (Wiki if necessary). Remember, there are so many other great characters and publishers to explore, and not all comics are about superheroes.

Here's the reading order for DeConnick's Captain Marvel run: Pursuit of Flight, Down, The Enemy Within then Higher, Further, Faster, More

u/katiedid616 · 3 pointsr/Marvel

You might also want to check out Matt Fraction's Hawkeye. It focus on Clint Barton with Kate Bishop as a supporting role but the 3rd volume is just about Kate. There will be 4 tpb volumes or a soon to be released omnibus.

If you are wanting to read or currently reading Spider-verse, the first four issues for spider-woman will be ok but if your like me and did not yet read all of Spider-verse. Issues #1-#4 won't make a lot of sense. But #5 should be a new jumping on point and Silk #1 and Spider-Gwen #1 will be after the end of Spider-verse.

I've also been enjoying the new Thor and Angela Asgards Assassin, I would suggest looking at the previews to see if you might like either of those. Both kinda tie into the event Original Sin.

[Captain Marvel 1st volume of 2013 run] (http://www.amazon.com/Captain-Marvel-Vol-Pursuit-Flight/dp/0785165495/ref=pd_sim_b_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=0RQY8G3C4MSXN4M4GD5Z) there is 3 volumes in this run.

Captain Marvel 1st volume of 2014 run is a 2nd volume coming and issues are currently on-going.

Introduction to Comics


How to Get Into Comic Books (13:40) | Patrick Willems

Consider your intent/commitment. Think about your favorite shows, movies, books, etc. Reading primarily for enjoyment or encyclopedic knowledge? Collecting? Have the time/resources to read 50 or 500 comics per character?

Don’t try to read everything at once. There’s too much. Forget about catching up, continuity, universes, etc. for now. Older comics can be an acquired taste for modern audiences, so they aren’t necessarily ideal starting points. Writers change often, characters get re-worked, and origins are re-told. Remember, there are many great characters, creators, publishers, etc. to explore.

Pick an interesting character/team and seek their most popular/acclaimed stories. Focus on self-contained, complete stories in one corner of the universe. There will be unexplained references/characters, just persevere or Wiki. Don’t let the tangled web of shared-universe comics overwhelm you. Think of it like solving a jigsaw puzzle one small piece at a time until you finally see the big picture.

Discover your preferences and let them guide you. Don’t get stuck preparing/over-analyzing, just start reading. Do you like/dislike old/new comics? Specific writers/genres? Cartoony/realistic art? Familiar/weird concepts? References/self-contained? All-ages/mature content? Follow these instincts. Didn’t understand a reference? Maybe read that next.

Happy reading! If you're interested in women heroes that are getting the movie treatment be sure to check out Captain Marvel too! She's the first one of Marvels female superheroes to get her own movie (in a few years)

So, based on the tag line, are we looking at a Kelly Sue Deconnick influenced story line? Higher, Further, Faster

u/that_guy2010 · 1 pointr/marvelstudios

Read the comic this version of Captain Marvel is based on. Carol has really dry humor and that’s what she’s going for. If you watch from that lens you can see that she actually played it perfect.
