    • Great Value
Bought this on sale, but definitely say it’s worth it even at full price. Skimming through it seems pretty detailed and neat. Very nice quality and great for any fan or collector. It honestly could probably even be a coffee table book for people to browse through while waiting or hanging out. Got this for a gift basket and just know it will be a highlight. Considering getting one for myself as well as the DC verse one. ... show more

    • Very informative and detailed!
I have no knowledge about comics at all, but I knew he was into it so I got it for him. I didn’t know what to expect. Ladies this isn’t no little book. Much bigger and heavier than I expected it to be. He was very happy. Made him feel seen and heard. Buying this book got me some brownie points. So yea, I would recommend it! ... show more

    • GOAT - Marvel Reference
Say you don’t feel like buying $10,000 worth Graphic Novels” through the MU. Just buy this encyclopedia, the back stories of the best and brightest sagas and arcs since 1961 when Stan Lee created some of the greatest literature to ever exist. Total Nerdvana! Marvel Universe geeks from the 90’s and before to relive the good old days, back when peace, prosperity, and freedom carried the day, everyday. Today in 2022 it feels like we live in a Philip K. Dick novel. Read •Scanner Darkly• or •Simalacra•recommended read* This Book is worth more than the price offered GUARANTEED! And will continue to be collectible, even to a beginning fan or someone like I was, someone who collected Marvel Universe Trading Cards back in the day, anyhoo the back of the cards would have the hero or villains and it would show the statistics of STRENGTH, DURABILITY, AGILITY, FIGHTING ABILITY, STAMINA/ENDURANCE & INTELLIGENCE if I recall. Did collect some comics here and there but too hard to stay with a saga with a 16page fly-swatter book, lol. So then movies were hit or miss on the correct mythology and whiffed time after time with Production Companies fighting for character rights, SILVER SURFER NEEDS A REBOOT PLEASE ON BIG SCREEN, and so it right or don’t do it all Kevin Fiege. I hear they are finally consolidating the entire MCU aka this BOOK. But just more multiverses just makes it harder to decipher who’s universe is who’s. “Infinity War & Endgame” was great but it could of been better if you could imagine?!! A few of the build up movies were ok but wasn’t as great as these writers like the “Writer: StanLee with Illustrator: Kirby” and the reboot writers of 1991 that Marvel really hit which spawned the coolest graphic novels and universe in all of literature, when staying in comic genre. •Philip K. Dick and his novel multi-universes are influential with MARVEL, just planting the idea seed for anyone reading this, before they edit or remove PKD books forever i suggest doing a deep dive into his work if your wondering why big cities are the way they are. No pictures, but if you have an attention span for a multi-verse without a filter whatsoever and a imaginative speculation of “WHAT IF”?! PHILIP K DiCK sparked all literary masters that something as complex as a “Multi-Verse” could even exist in the first place. His short story hard book is wordvana to the fullest, so many writers copied or imo was plagiarized so much. He didn’t see much success as novelist, but his books make Nastradramus look like a weather man forecasting tomorrow’s forecast. If you read this message word for word, you have enough command of English language to understand PKD and how applicable his writings are becoming manifested in reality imo ... show more

    • Covers fall off
Love love this book! But even with just regular use the front and back covers end up falling off. We love the content but wish it was a little more durable. My grandson is 10, and is not rough on books. He reads them all the time, though, and this is his favorite. Just the act of opening and closing the book repeatedly several times a day wears it out. I was hoping there was a paperback version. ... show more
