Spot-on analysis
The more recent Marvel films really did a fantastic job at introducing old heroes into the modern world. Characters that only diehard comic fans knew and loved came to life in the movies. However, in order to pull this off, they had to make the characters appear less “shiny” and more like real-life average Joes.
For instance, take a look at this picture and tell us whether you see a group of crime-fighting superheroes or a group of suburban dads preparing for a day of BBQ-ing and sharing landscaping tips. The fact that they look so normal, even Dr. Strange who looks like a regular dad cosplaying as a superhero, makes us love Marvel even more.
