Marvel, who began the Silver Age superhero renaissance, had gone on to its "Phase ...

When one thinks of Marvel, they usually might think of a lot of famous ditzy super-hero characters living these ice cream type lives where their biggest problem tends to usually be deciding between Lisa, Mary, or Sandra. In actuality these characters, whom we all know, the Human Torch, Mr Fantastic, Spider-Man, and Thor to name a few, truly have no lives at all! Their only lives tend to ...
