[Mike · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is an exhibition catalog so don't expect coherent story lines. Each artist is given between one and four pages which include excerpts from longer works. But this is a great book for comic fans to have on hand for the use of converting non-believers. It gives a very thoughtful overview of non-super hero comics.
