Marvel's The Avengers - About the Comic Books

Young Marvel movie fans may be interested in checking out the comics that started it all. The first Avengers comic book was published in 1963 and was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Of course, many other movies and books feature the Avengers individually and together, and if your child is too young for the new movies, there are also Avengers cartoons available on DVD that feature the characters.
