The best Wolverine story in years
When Mark Millar began his year-long run on Wolverine, not many expected his run to become one of the absolute best Wolverine stories, well, maybe ever. Enemy of the State finds Wolverine kidnapped and brain washed by the newly formed alliance of the Hand, Hydra, and the demonic Gorgon; all of whom use Wolverine as their own bloodthirsty assassin. Things get even worse when they set him loose ...

An incredible deal!!
i gave this five stars because of the excellent binding. this omnibus can actually be read like the thirty plus comic books they are without missing vital art and dialogue in the crease, i hope all future omnibus from Marvel are bound just like this and the obvious reason this gets 5 stars: the art of Alex Maleev is mind blowingly cool

The End of the Silver Age of Comics
Finally, the completion of the Spider-Man Silver Age issues. I can vividly remember reading these comics when they came out and I had no idea that this was it -- that there would be no more of this calibre in the future. Spider-Man was literally at his peak of popularity and the issues in this volume are Stan Lee and John Romita in their prime with the characters and stories fully developed. ...

It's a shame I can't give it ten stars
I have to say, I absolutely loved this book. It almost made my permanent collection, but it didn't, only because of all the books you have to read to prepare for it (the early new avengers, most of the civil war books, death of Captain America, and a working knowledge of all included. Wolverine is the first one, and what I really loved was seeing a man so jaded when it comes to death be ...

Iron Man's best story in it's best format
The story is classic by now and known not only to Iron Man fans, so the contex of this book won't be reviewed here. What is worth saying is the top quality paper and wonderfull job done at the colours. Additional credits should be given for the hard cover and the jacket illustration. Every issue comes with it's original cover. This is Iron Man and Marvel at their best. May many more stories ...

an enjoyable trip down memory lane......
I purchased this as a present for my grandson and ended up reading and enjoying it myself. This book brought back many childhood memories for me of carefree afternoons of reading adventures and comic book swapping with friends. What a great and inexpensive way to regain your old comic book collection. I thought the black and white illistrations might take something away but it really doesn't. ...

Fantastic short reading experience
This comic book masterpiece is a pleasure to read! The quality of the art together with a well written story generate a book you do not want to put down in the middle. I really wished it wouldn't end so soon.

Hulk Smash, and Smash, and Smash
I am a huge Hulk fan. When I was a kid, it was one of the comics I would pick up each month. When Planet Hulk arrived, my fanfare for the Green Goliath was renewed. Even though this story might be a bit lacking in plot - it is supposed to be. I have learned that when the Hulk is really mad, he smashes and usually doesn't stop for a while. That is basically what this story is about. I think ...

Spidey at some of his BEST and worst moments!
Once you get past the black & white pages (there is much to be said about how color enhances comicbook artwork), the Marvel Essentials stories really manage to pull you in. Volume 6 has some of Spidey's best storylines ever in Amazing Spider-Man. The pinacle would have to be the character defining two-parter with the Death of Gwen Stacy at the hands of the Green Goblin. Powerful stuff even ...

Kick-Ass #2
Mark Millar

Icon Publishing - Marvel Comics, 2008

Written by MARK MILLAR Pencils & Cover by JOHN ROMITA JR. Sickening violence...just the way you like it. The most screwed-up superhero comic of all time continues in what's sure to be the most exciting launch of 2008. What would happen if you tried to be a super hero? What would happen when an ordinary man in a latex suit comes face-to-face with the criminal underworld? Read about super heroes like you've never seen them before and feel happy ...

Great 30+ Year-Old Stories That Seem So Relevant Today
The Essential Spider-Man Volume 4 is a very good collection of stories that place our super hero and his alter-ego into situations that, in a day and age over thirty years after their publication, seem so relevant to modern-day Americans. Though Peter Parker was always busy being both an underappreciated crime fighter and a student trying to maintain an active social life, his attempts to keep ...

The Awesomest Thing Ever
Do you like fancy New York locales? Melodramatic villians who defy the laws of physics? Secretaries with sweet beehive hairdos and unrequited romantic attractions? Blind crimefighters who struggle to design the most perfect costume? Then you will love this book! Daredevil is the devil I pray to! :)

Captain America teams up with the Falcon in the early 1970s
With the recent "death" of Captain America in the epilogue to the Civil War that has rocked the Marvel Universe I decided to go back and read again the Silver Age adventures of ol' wing head. "Essential Captain America, Volume 3," reprints "Captain America" issues #127-56, which were originally published between 1970 and 1972. Captain America was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby back in ...

She's nine years old, loves Hello Kitty and could rip out your windpipe before you even get a chance to plead for mercy. But where did she come from? And who is Big Daddy?

Iron Man
Any fan of Iron Man, espescially the classic stories, will enjoy this book. I highly recomend it. It is actually a collection of stories featuring the Deep-Sea Armor, Stealth Armor, etc... In my opinion the multi-part story featuring the Space Armor is worth the price of admission alone.

Graphic SF Reader
One of the oustanding X-Men storylines. This collects all the appropriate X-Men and X-Factor and New Mutants and Thor and Power Pack issues that you need to make up the story. If you prefer color to the black and white version in Essential X-Men, this is the one that you should get. Wolverine vs Sabretooh, no holds barred. Lots of things change for the X-Men out of this story.

Taunted and tormented by children while growing up, Matt's life was irrevocably altered after he was blinded by radioactive materials while saving the life of an old man. The payoff? An unbreakable will and a keen intelligence, helping focus the super-senses he was blessed ...

The best of Spider-Man's classic years
For my money, this was really Spider-Man's best era. Love Steve Ditko; loved his Green Goblin stories, but gosh, all that stuff with the Enforcers and other minor-league bad guys was slow-going. But, man! When John Romita came on board, this book really took off! I've always loved his artwork, and the stories were real slam-bang humdingers. The pieces fell into place for Peter to begin his ...
