Marvel Collector's Dream January 9, 2009 My son-in-law is a serious Marvel figures collector, and he was thrilled with this book, which I gave to him for Christmas.
Marvel thru the years January 7, 2009 Marvel Chronicle is a great synopsis of Marvel Comics through its history. A must-have for Marvel die-hards!
Good Stuff January 7, 2009 Good stuff. Always entertaining. If you're looking for a classic bio-style accounting of the early days of Marvel. this is not it. But as an extremely entertaining reference guide... this is one one the best out there.
Great gift idea! January 6, 2009 I first saw this in the holiday issue of Real Simple magazine and thought it would be a nice gift. I ordered two of these for Christmas gifts, one for my Fiance and the other for his brother in-law... They're both typical guys that enjoy watching Marvel movies - my Fiance particularly collected comics (Marvel & DC etc.) as a child and still has them stored away. When my Fiance openned it at Christmas, he thought it was the "coolest" thing ever - his brother in-law saw him open it and immediately said "Whoa, I want to buy that!" little did he know he had one too! Needless to say, it made both of them happy as a kid again. The book has an M shaped cover and is enclosed in another box (the picture they show you is sort of the box it's kept in). There's a ribbon that lays underneath the book that you can lift to make it easier to take the book out of the box. It's full color with beautiful detail. I would definitely purchase this again if there's ever any one else I can think of to give it as a Christmas or Birthday gift to!
Since I bought this as a gift, I can't really review this according to actual content but I can tell you that neither guys have complained and love their gift!
A great gift to any closet nerd January 6, 2009 I gave this book to my boyfriend as a Christmas gift. He isn't a total comic fan, so he was a little confused when I gave it to him. However, I now catching him reading it all the time. He loves it because it's all about the history of Marvel and not some giant comic book.
