Good book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Good book for the money. Couldn't see paying big bucks for a new one. Good reference on comic and super heros.
A fine companion volume using the same A-Z reference format

Gina Misiroglu works with David A. Roach on THE SUPERHERO BOOK: THE ULTIMATE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF COMIC-BOOK ICONS AND HOLLYWOOD HEROES, which provides a fine companion volume using the same A-Z reference format and surveying all significant characters in almost 300 alphabetically indexed entries. Together these are key references for any comprehensive cartoon or comic library holding, accenting histories with a peppering of color and black and white illustrations from source materials.

Got a comic fan in your life? Make his/her day with this one
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Their are other comic book encyclopedias out their. Some of them have flashier art (not that this doesn't) or higher page counts. But a when I read through this one I was impressed. I challenged the book by looking for characters other than Spider-Man, such as MiracleMan and Phantom Lady and was pleased with the coverage they were given. Lots of nice tidbits and indepth coverage of many heroes including their crossovers into other media. Buy it for the comic fan in your life.
