The Lessons- one fan tweeted that while the Marvel Universe may not be real, they taught him to care, dream and love and to seek adventure. They also helped him to look at life from a different perspective and thus became real to him.

They may not real but they taught me to care, to dream, to seek adventure, to Love. They helped me look at life in different perspective. Therefore they are real to ME.
