The Marvel Encyclopedia (Hardcover)

[Saxito Pau]

Came across this book while doing my online shopping on Amazon

link here

only published October last year, it claims to be a comprehensive listing of all Marvel characters. a good book for the recently comic-initiated.

Has anyone gotten their hands on this book? Post a review.

I saw it in Runes for a good price...I'm not sure if I can discuss the price on these forums so PM me if you want the price.
I also saw the DC comics encyclopedia (Harcover) for the same price (again PM me)
The cover for the DC encyclopedia is phenomenal...done by the same artist who drew Kingdom Come...forgot his name!

and are these officially sanctioned books? did marvel and dc make them? and if so, why then do they suck?

[Red Paradox]

you forgot his name? It's Alex Ross who did Kingdom Come.

but again, DO NOT BUY THE MARVEL ENCYCLOPAEDIA!!!!

hmm...I've read the article...and now I'm skeptical about my Granny buying it for me on my birthday.....I won't want her to waste $300.00 on this when I could get a pair of vans.....however I wanted the book primarily for the artwork.......hmmm.......this is a tough choice

vanz is even more jazz
get the book if you cant get yourself a decent pair of airwalks (classics) that is.

[Red Paradox]

Damn you apprentice.....I used to wear vans in the US and they pawn
besides it's for skateboarding.....it's allows exteme manuverability and finesse while I'm busting out the tricks....that and /or quicksilver
