Infographic: Marvel Movies History (From 1986 To 2015)
In 1986, George Lucas wanted to step away from directing films and move on to producing them. He teamed up with a group of writers from Marvel Comics to produce Howard the Duck, arguably one of the WORST movies ever made.
Flash forward to 2015: Marvel has become their own production company and is a juggernaut at the box office. Marvel Studios holds many box office records, including three of the four largest opening weekends of all time. So how did we get from the likes of Howard the Duck and The Punisher starring Dolph Lundgren (yes, Ivan Drago himself) to the likes of Iron Man and The Avengers? Take the journey with us as we explore the history of Marvel at the movies with this infographic.
