Comics are a wonderful way to get children to develop reading habits and can play a valuable role in language acquisition and vocabulary building in young learners. Marvel Unlimited, available on the App Store and Google Play, is an online archive collecting Marvel Comics’ 80 years of comic book publishing and provides a wide range of superhero titles and classic comics, as well as focused 'Reading Clubs' and curated 'Reading Lists' to guide those new to comics. This week’s Marvel Unlimited Series Spotlight presents “Start Here: Young Readers" with the publisher’s most recognizable and relatable heroes in some fun, familiar, and challenging situations.
“Start Here: Young Readers" kicks things off with Marvel team-ups as the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Ms. Marvel, Miles “Spider-Man" Morales, and the Secret Warriors take center stage in the diverse and exciting Marvel Rising #1. The zany Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur features preteen super-genius, Lunella Lafayette and her best friend, a time-traveling red dinosaur from the distant past. Expect interstellar entertainment from Rocket Raccoon, Groot, and the Guardians of the Galaxy — here to “protect the cosmos, but who will protect them when their newest threat is coming from inside the ship?” And the superhero team-ups continue when Marvel’s First Family, the world-famous Fantastic Four and Power Pack join forces to stop the "Attack of the Super-Bullies!”
Marvel Action and Marvel Super Hero Adventures are two comic lines that feature many of Marvel’s favorite characters in light-hearted high jinks and heroic fun. The Marvel Action series presents a youthful, tongue-in-cheek take on The Avengers, Spider-Man, Black Panther, and Captain Marvel in spectacular stories from the streets of New York to the soaring towers of Wakanda. Marvel Super Hero Adventures tell tall tales from Across the Spider-Verse to the “First Day of School” with Captain Marvel, and heroes come in all sizes in “Webs and Arrows And Ants, Oh My” with Ant-Man, his daughter Cassie, Spidey, and Hawkeye.
Marvel’s Hero Project, comics based on the documentary web television series for Disney+ shines a spotlight on the extraordinary deeds of ordinary kids with a sensational series of comic book shorts.
