The Marvel Encyclopedia June 9, 2008
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.
Great buy for any Marvel fan! June 4, 2008
My husband & I bought this for my son's 8th birthday over two weeks ago and he won't put it down. The images are great quality and are very detailed. He is driving us crazy with all the Marvel facts. Definitely a must buy for all ages.
Great Deal May 12, 2008
