I haven't read any of the comics but the movies are spectacular!

The Marvel comics are great but are nowhere near the standard of what DC produces. The movies did the comics a huge favor by enhancing the number of readers exponentially. Movies for me!

I really like Marvel movies, but I prefer comics. I've always been a fan of comics because they can show things that don't come out in a cartoon or a movie. But I'm not one of those people who say "it doesn't look like the comic", I enjoy everything equally.

I have not read the comics but I hope to do that soon. Does anybody know where I can buy it for cheap? And I'm not talking about an illegal place. Maybe I can buy the hardcover if it exists from an owner who no longer wants it.

I agree. I too have not read any of the comics. But I loved the movies.

I have the same problem. But I think because marvel comics are packed it actions, it might be interesting.

I've never been a fan of marvel comics but I've been an ardent lover of their movies. Besides, from what I've heard the comics are no way close to the movies as the movies give more detail of what's happening coupled with the fact that you see the action live.

I prefer the movies than comics and if I watch the movie first, I will still read the comics anyway if I'm just passing time.

I have watched all the Marvel movies, but unfortunately I haven't touched even one comic book.

It's definitely the movies for me, there are so many comics out there and catching up seems to be the problem. I get to hear about some I haven't read from people that have. Thor, Doctor Strange, Black panther have great movies but infinity wars, endgame were mind-blowing.

Well, speaking frankly the movies introduced me to Marvel, I tell would get to the comics later, but as of present I prefer the movies.

Movies are way better better than comic books. It is always real and the emotion is top notch.
