Iron Man, Thor, Captain America Themes From 1966 Cartoon Series ‘The Marvel Super Heroes’ Set for Vinyl Release


The 1966 Marvel cartoon themes for Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and more are set for release on vinyl from Disney Music Group.

Featuring remastered audio and packaging artwork that’s faithful to the Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko and Don Heck comic books that inspired the show, the records offer fans a nostalgic collectible that reaches back to one of the first times that the company’s heroes leapt off the printed page. Given the complex legal history of Marvel merchandising — much less the material’s age — Disney Music Group marketing and product management director Paulo DaCosta says that figuring out the rights was a multi-year process. Still alive if not actively working (his music can still be heard on the daytime soap opera “General Hospital”), the composer collaborated with DMG to obtain the original recordings for remastering.
