Marvel 1966

There are no changes to the title line up the entire year, and won't be until 1968. As of this year every hero who's ever had their own title are still regulars, the only previously cancelled titles being the Hulk (who joined Tales to Astonish) and Giant Man and the Wasp, who had left Astonish but rejoined the Avengers.

The Amazing Spider-Man


Avengers

The "Cap's Kooky Quartet" era only lasted 11 issues, with Giant Man and Wasp rejoining mid-year and Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch taking a vacation. The year starts with Kang goes downhill from there, with the likes of the Sons of the Serpent and the Living Laser. Giant-Man gets stuck at tall height for a while, but goes back to being able to control his height by the end of the year.

Daredevil 

The year begins with Matt leaving Nelson and Murdock, but it doesn't take and he's back after introducing Kazar into the Marvel Universe. DD faces the Owl, the Ani-Men, Gladiator (twice), and the Masked Marauder (twice).

X-Men

Jean goes to college, they end the year with new uniforms, Iceman and Beast get girlfriends. The teen mutants face Sentinels, Magneto, and Mimic (twice), a team of d-list baddies under Nefaria including Plantman and the Eel, and others who are even more no-name (Lucifer, Dominus, Locust). The Puppet Master is aware of their secret identities.
