And here my adventure begins!!

I want to say that I had never read comics of any kind before and that because of my mania I have decided to start from the beginning of the Marvel universe. I expect too much from this path that I will follow.

Now, speaking about the comic, well, it seems like a good start due to different situations. I have found out that one of the reasons why Marvel began to be a success was because of the duality it gave its superheroes regarding this burden, and this can be seen more in one of my favorite heroes, The Thing, who would give all his heroism to be Ben Grimm again.

I hope to continue seeing much more of the Ben-Johnny duo, and I also find it interesting that, from the very first issue, their rival is someone who would remain important in the group's history. 3 stars, and keep enjoying it.

P.S.: I am writing this review after having read this whole world up to the year 1964.
