The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the world’s favourite box office attraction. With 33 blockbusters to date – and counting – the biggest movie franchise in history has legions of fans around the world. The films feature super heroes who first appeared in American comics dating from 1939. Their adventures have been adapted for books, television, animation, video games and, of course, film, including 2008’s pivotal Iron Man - the first movie to be set in the cinematic equivalent of the original Marvel Universe.
