Rita El Khoury / Android Authority I’ve been subscribed to YouTube Premium for many years now, and yet I didn’t know what I was exactly paying for. In my mind, I always associated Premium with an ad-free experience; being able to get rid of all those pesky long and interrupting ads before or while watching a video is alone worth the price.

Marvel Comics is no stranger to a bit of brand synergy and consolidation. The more characters break out into the mainstream beyond the readership of comics, the more their comics counterparts are sanded down and chopped and changed to eventually better accommodate the potential for audiences who are aware of them through adaptation to go to the comics and find familiar fare. This has been especially true as the shadow of the MCU grew ever larger, reshaping characters and realigning destinies the
