About the Marvel font
Marvel is a sans-serif typeface designed by Carolina Trebol, first released to Google Fonts on August 2011. It ships with 2 weights · italic and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 72% of the cap height, condensed letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Marvel against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
