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).

Hawkeye | Matt Fraction
Immortal Iron Fist | Brubaker & Fraction
Inhumans | Paul Jenkins
Iron Man: Extremis | Warren Ellis | Iron Man 1
Invincible Iron Man | Matt Fraction | Iron Man 2
Marvels (Marvel History) | Kurt Busiek
Moon Knight | Warren Ellis
Ms. Marvel | G. Willow Wilson
Planet Hulk | Greg Pack | Hulk 1
Punisher Max | Garth Ennis
Thor | Jason Aaron
Ultimate Spider-man | Bendis | Ultimate
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:

Secret War | Bendis |
House of M | Bendis | X-Men 2.5
Annihilation | Abnett, Lanning, Giffen | Cosmic

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.

Oh sure, so to be clear I think the whole "permanent physical transformation" part of terrigenesis is a little underexplored. If you want to check them out anyway my two recommendations would be:

  1. Inhumans by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee: This is kind of considered the go to comic for introducing the inhumans. You don't need to have any prior knowledge to read this one. Lee's art is pretty stylish, really shadowy and stuff. Not everyone digs it but I think it works.

  2. Infinity by Jonathan Hickman, Jim Cheung, and Jerome Opena: For something more recent, this is newish comic event that features the inhumans pretty heavily. It's more bombastic than Inhumans by Jenkins but I enjoy Hickman's sharp script a lot. There's some lead in material though. I would recommend also picking up this book to provide some context. Infinity was a crossover and culmination of two different books Hickman was writing, Avengers and New Avengers. Totally recommend reading the New Avengers stuff and totally recommend against the Avengers stuff. If you do decide to go this route, I could give you a summary of the Avengers stuff. Incidentally, I think Infinity would be great reading for Infinity War and maybe A4, as it seems like a lot of that movie might be inspired by this book.

    Hey good luck! Comics aren't cheap but I hope you check one of these out!

I mean, first things first, that's your opinion. That's cool, not everyone likes everything.


It's only recently that they were "replacements" for the X-men. Even then, the X-men were still around, with multiple series going at the same time. They're both interesting in different ways, and they're not just copies of the X-men. I enjoy the dynamic the family has as royalty.


If you ever get the chance, check out Inhumans by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee.

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.

Hi! So the best introduction to the Inhumans would be the the Inhumans series by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee. Here's and amazon link https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0785197494/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1479668606&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=inhumans&dpPl=1&dpID=51HFonoLbEL&ref=plSrch

Or if you want a classic introduction, there is this collection:https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/078518497X/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1479668606&sr=8-3&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=inhumans&dpPl=1&dpID=51y9wZOA-eL&ref=plSrch

The Jenkins and Lee series offers a lot more coherent and complete story opposed to the second one, which collects various Inhumans appearances from their debut in Fantastic Four. I'd have to recommend the the first one, it'll be a lot more satisfying and is a great read.

Hope this helped!

Yeah, I think that most fans really didn't care for the Inhumans one way or the other. Honestly, I really don't care for them but I will give the show a chance once it comes to ABC. But still, what I know from them in the comics mostly comes from this run:https://www.amazon.com/Inhumans-Paul-Jenkins-Jae-Lee/dp/0785197494/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1504748053&sr=8-1&keywords=Inhumans
