For all that it is made fun of today, the series made the "Marvel style" of superheroes (which during the SilverAge of Comics was relatively more serious than its rival DCComics') more popular; even more so than the other then-current Marvel animated adaptations (SpiderMan and the FantasticFour) which were [[AdaptationDecay toned down for television]]. As these stories were taken directly from the comics, you could tell the difference.

An [[AnimatedSeries animated anthology]] series from the 1960's featuring several MarvelComics superheroes, and one of the first to do so.

The series basically took the artwork from the comics, and added moving mouths and limbs, spoken dialogue and sound effects. Still, considering the artwork was from people such as JackKirby, it was still impressive to see.

!Tropes from this show:
* {{Angst}}: Every hero had some: The Hulk for being hunted, Captain America for outliving his loved ones, Thor for being forbidden to love a mortal, and Iron Man for always being near death. (Prince Namor the Submariner also complained a lot but he really had few reasons to.)

The stories were all from the early comics, and so featured the origins of the heroes and most of their main enemies. The segments were short (about 7 minutes each) and were sold as a package, to be aired however the TV station wanted.
