Comic Book Dictionary: Mar-velled

Being a comic book fan, there is a certain amount of jargon and buzzwords that we are accustomed to. Being hardcore comic book fans though, there are also terms that are coined along the way that have special meaning only to the most hardcore readers.

Our newest feature, The Comic Book Dictionary will help you understand these special terms. This one is a very special situation.

Mar-velled – This is a term that shouldn’t NEED to exist, but as they say COMICS. Mar-velled means for a character to die in a comic… and remain dead.

It is very uncommon for characters to remain dead in comics (So much so that we actually hosted a podcast about comic book deaths back in May of this year) so to see that Mar-vell has remained dead for the most part (COMICS!) was a very special case.
