A great book!
This book is the ultimate walk down memory lane for those of us who have read comic books for years! The book is largely organized chronologically, with the early Avengers, and then the Avengers in the 1970s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s. Along the way, each Avenger is detailed, along with many colorful illustrations, some scenes from actual stories, nemeses, and interesting factoids. Overall, I found ...

Spider-Man: Maximum Carnage

Chaos and Carnage
The story is chaotic, never takes itself TOO seriously, and captures the character of Spider-Man perfectly. My main gripe has to do with a few large out-of-nowhere plot devices that the writers insert toward the end of the story to help bring about the story's end. I chuckled at the absurdity of the sudden appearence of Deathlok's super-suit, and that was only one example. Still, an ...

KOLCHAK LIVES ON THANKS TO MOONSTONE!
When Kolchak: The Nightstalker premiered in 1974, I was firmly convinced it was the greatest show ever. Unfortunately not enough people thought the same way I did and the show lasted a single season...just 20 episodes in all. Despite that, the show has continued to have a strong cult following and re-runs were still turning up on the Sci-Fi channel just a couple of years ago. ABC even did a ...

The Marvel Encyclopedia
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.

Spider-Man: The Ultimate Guide

A Great Guide
Tom DeFalco does a great job again (as he did with Spider-Man The Ultimate Guide), and I consider this book the best Hulk encyclopedia out there. Precise, accurate, giving proper credit to all Hulk artists, major or not, with tons of great images, easy-and-fun-to-read, in summary, a great buy. I could not say the same about the Hulk Marvel Encyclopedia by Kit Kiefer, which is a true ...

Marvel Comics, 2004

New collection, better price, same great stories
While the core Spider-Man comics were stagnating thanks to the ill-advised John Byrne relaunch, Tom DeFalco introduced Spidey's teenage daughter in an "unofficial" future. Very quickly it became clear that DeFalco's tales of May "Mayday" Parker -- wonderfully illustrated by Pat Olliffe -- captured the qualities of the earliest Lee-Ditko Spidey stories plus DeFalco's own great Spider-Man work ...

I've seen better
The Essential series is a great way to fill the gaps for those who missed a couple of decades in the Marvel chronology. However, this particular issue is not among the best IMHO. Besides the interesting change Angel goes through, what you get is mostly Cyclops whining, a rather unconvincing human villain and a weak Apocalypse (seriously, is that really all he can do?). This book is OK for ...

One last hurrah for the House of Ideas
Once upon a time there was a comic universe, large and diverse, filled with just about any type of character from any type of pulp genre, and they shared and interacted in the same universe. You had a Martial Arts character named Shang Chi living in the same world as the cosmic space fantasy Silver Surfer who fought against the supernatural thriller Dracula who appeared in the socially conscious ...
