Why Marvel has essentially dropped the ball : because most of their flagship titles and franchises have lost sight of what made them organic and relatable.
Spider-Man: a young boy journey into manhood and learning the responsibility that comes with having extraordinary power.
X-Men: Allegory to the Civil Rights movement.
But watching these series you'd think it's about 30 something year old manchild aka Scott Pilgrim the middle age years and the awesome adventures of the Canadian mutant secret agent and 500 sidekicks.
