The Marvels is in cinemas now, and if you stay through the credits, you will see more than just the mid-credit scene and the post-credit sound. But if you stay, you will see the comic book creators who get "special thanks" for their role in creating comic books that inspired many a character and scene in the movie. One missing is Kelly Sue DeConnick who revitalised the character at Marvel, but who played a bigger role in this movie, with a Consultant credit. But what about the other comic book credits for The Marvel a little further down the rolling list? Warning, there are potential spoilers for The Marvels in the following article because we name characters that turn up in the movie, because of who created them.
