One of the problems I have with slew of films in the last few years all in the same sharedMarvel universe, is that I don't come with *any* knowledge of the comics of the last few decades. (I was too busy with Traveller!). I keep feeling like it's a party I'm not quite welcome at much though I've enjoyed some of the films or programmes like Shield. I suspect there's a lot I'm missing.
I hope the Spinward Traveller project avoids making new fans feel a bit left out. Of course that's right after I hope that it firstly succeeds in completing and secondly succeeds in drawing lots of new fans!tc
