    Hi! I am currently following Black Widow's (2016) comics. I want to read the origin stories of Captain America, Daredevil, Deadpool, Spider-man, X-men, Avengers, Guardians Of Galaxy and Fantastic Four or some other Marvel characters. The question is that from where I should start? How about Marvel Now! and Secret Wars ?

    Try to find the Marvel Masterworks for some of those characters, they're trades of the first 'X amount' of issues about said character. I have the first two of Captain America, they're about $25 each, but you can get them on sales/clearance sometimes.

    Secret Wars (the newer one) will be, or is out in trades too. There's several different collections of those as well.

    The original Secret Wars series from '84 I think. Secret Wars II, Secret Wars III, New Avengers or anything about the Incursions including Time Runs Out and of course Secret Wars 2015.

    I'd say the Hickman run.
