Don't bother picking this up if you don't love Marvel Comics and the myriad fun and/or goofy characters they've published in the past seventy years (give or take). If you do love Marvel, this series is crack. It's significantly updated from the original 1980s edition. I can't say that I'll rate and/or list every individual volume in the future, so consider this a review of the entire series. Fun geekcrack.

I'm a huge fan of the Marvel Universe Handbooks (and the DC Comics' Who's Who). This edition was great because as someone that doesn't read a lot of modern comics (which to me is anything post-1995, lol) it had a lot of newer characters and a ton of Golden Age Characters I had never heard of. Also, it was interesting to see how many of the well-known characters' lives had intertwined during the last 60 odd years.

This is a must read for anyone who wants to know more about Marvel characters and the world they inhabit.

Ahora necesito los otros 11 que me falta.
Si eres fanático de Marvel, este libro (primer volumen de doce) es ideal para ti. Te da bastante información sobre sus personajes; historia, apariciones, fuerza, etc.
No voy a negar que hubo algunos que no decidí leer porque me mareé con la letra súper pequeña; pero luego todo bien.
