Distant Marvels is fiction for sure. It has elements that are beyond what we encounter in the real world, crafted solely for the purpose of creating an engaging story.
Yes, there are. For example, Freddie Mercury. His life story is filled with real events that inspired the music and the legend of Queen. His upbringing, his struggle with his identity, and his rise to stardom are all real - life elements that contributed to the Queen story.
I'm not sure specifically as this seems like a rather strange and unheard - of story title. It could potentially be about some wild experiences on a tour bus involving rockstars, but without more context it's hard to say.
One possibility could be a science fiction graphic novel where scientists save the world with their groundbreaking discoveries and become heroes, thus being seen as rockstars.
Some great Marvels graphic novels include 'X - Men: Days of Future Past'. It presents a dystopian future where mutants are hunted and the remaining X - Men try to change the past to avoid this future. 'Daredevil: Born Again' is another excellent choice. It tells the story of Daredevil's downfall and his struggle to rise again. 'Infinite Crisis' is also a notable one that involves multiple universes colliding in the DC universe, although it has crossovers and interactions with Marvel characters in some ways.
Definitely 'Infinite Crisis'. This graphic novel is filled with epic battles and crossovers between different superheroes. It's a big event in the Marvel universe. 'Hawkeye' by Matt Fraction is also a wonderful read. It shows Hawkeye in a more down - to - earth and relatable way. And don't forget 'Ms. Marvel' which features a new and diverse take on the superhero concept within the Marvels graphic novels.
