On August 31, 1939, the first issue of Timely Comics was published. The company changed its name to Marvel and became a beloved source of stories about Captain America, Iron Man, The Mighty Thor, and a pantheon of other superheroes. To celebrate Marvel's 85th anniversary, the company has released a tribute video featuring its biggest superheroes over the years, with a special emphasis on Marvel's most beloved character ever, Stan Lee.
But that's not all you'll see here. The tribute video also looks to the future, with the first official release of images of Harrison Ford as Red Hulk in Thunderbolts*, which we won't see until May of next year. You'll also catch glimpses of other upcoming projects such as the feature film Captain America: Brave New World (slated for February), the 2025 TV series Daredevil: Born Again, and the 2025 miniseries Ironheart.
