I bought this for my brother for Christmas. The bookstore at the mall was selling this book for twice what I paid on Amazon! My brother loves the book and his friends even call him when they need a Marvel character question answered. My brother is 24, my husband is 37, my sons are ages 2 and 5, and they all LOVED looking through this book.


5 out of 5 stars Great buy for any Marvel fan!   June 4, 2008
