Much like the MCU’s oversaturation problem, the source material itself is a lot to wade through. Whether you love Marvel or DC getting into comic books can be a daunting task especially if you don’t know where to start. Ask any comic book expert and you will get a different answer. Some will tell you that you need to read everything, some will say that you only need to read everything that pertains to your favorite characters, and some will say you only need to read the major storylines. The reality is that you don’t “need” to read anything. The best advice I can come up with is start with the major storylines of your favorite character and go from there. If you start with characters you already like it will probably end up opening up storylines that sound interesting to you. Now narrowing down the best storylines for your favorite characters is daunting in of itself. So here are my favorite and what I think are the most relevant comic book storylines for popular Marvel characters. (We will be doing DC comics as well I just had these done already). For more information and elaboration on why I chose these storylines Temple of Geek has full articles on most of them!
