1967 Marvel Super-Heroes jigsaw puzzle

You can't really tell from the glare, but this is pretty much the line of the old 60s cartoons. Cap, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, and Namor the Sub-Mariner.

Of course, as a Namor fan, I might have passed up on grabbing this if I saw it, because this is what the box looks like.

YES. Even back then Namor was getting screwed over ... this time by the labeling / branding. Sigh.

Apparently a press kit shirt made for the 97-98 season of Fox Kids cartoons. And you can probably guess from the fact that it's featured on this blog- Sam & Max are on it.

Doom Has No Rivals! “Marvelmania” (1969)

How do you think, what's the secret of creating a successful legacy character in Big Two comics? Over the past fifteen years we've seen, how characters like Damian Wayne, Miles Morales or Kamala Khan became insanely popular among fanbase, and at the same time, characters like Jace Fox, Yara Flor or even aged-up Jon Kent (even though he's doing better) seemingly failed to grab audience's attention, despite the involement of writers like John Ridley and Tom Taylor. What's the reason of that?

It's always a mix of luck and circumstance, but running through the three you mentioned as successes:

Damian Wayne - Robin is the Son of Batman equals an easy hook, same reason why Jon is still popular. Damian is unique amongst the Robins because he was Batman's biological son who Bruce was forced to take in, rather than an adopted son Bruce chose to take in. Also he's an abrasive and arrogant little shit, which makes him entertaining because of how he plays off of his fellow Batfamily members as well as other heroes. Jace meanwhile is a late addition to a mantle that already has several popular successors to Bruce in Dick, Damian, and Terry.

Miles Morales - He grabbed a ton of headlines via being the first black Spider-Man, he succeeded a version of Peter who was hugely popular in his own right, letting Miles build off of that fanbase, and Bendis used to be one of the hottest creators in comics which helped Miles keep getting pushed. ITSV did save Miles somewhat, after years of mediocre stories from Bendis, Marvel was apparently considering taking the mantle away from him, and the movie put a stop to that while also doing more than Bendis ever did to differentiate Miles from Peter. Plus it's Spider-Man, the most popular superhero ever, that brand alone is worth a lot when you don't have to compete with a huge "Spider-Family". Up until recently it was just Peter and Miles as the main two, with Kaine and Miguel on the periphery. That let Miles get established so when we reach our current state of boatloads of Spiders, Miles still gets to be at the center.

Kamala Khan - She debuted right as MCU fandom was hitting it's peak, and I don't think it's a coincidence that her decline in popularity parallels a similar decline in popularity for the MCU as a whole. When you're a young teenager getting swept up in Marvelmania, Kamala is an appealing entry point since she's a fangirl of all the same heroes you are. Now that people are no longer as obsessed with Marvel, Kamala isn't doing as well.
