''Marvels'' is a four-issue limited series comic book written by Kurt Busiek, painted by Alex Ross and edited by Marcus McLaurin. It was published by Marvel Comics in 1994. Set from 1939 to 1974, the series examines the Marvel Universe, the collective setting of most of Marvel's superhero series, from the perspective of an Everyman character: news photographer Phil Sheldon. The street-level series portrayed ordinary life in a world full of costumed supermen, with each issue featuring events well known to readers of Marvel comics as well as a variety of minute details and retelling the most famous events in the Marvel universe. Marvels was a success, winning multiple awards and launching the significant careers of Busiek and Ross, who would both return to the "everyday life in a superhero universe" theme in the Homage Comics series, ''Astro City''. Warren Ellis' ''Ruins'' returned to this theme in 1995, but an actual sequel had to wait until 2008 with the release of ''Marvels: Eye of the Camera''. ==Publication history== ''Marvels'' was a four-issue miniseries (cover-dated Jan.-April 1994) by writer Kurt Busiek with painted art by Alex Ross.
