Marvel Absolutely Everything You Need to Know

I LOVE this book. I am a HUGE MARVEL fan , and this is so much fun to read. Its style of the book is kinda set up like a comic book. It has a lot of information about multiple characters, and the pictures are beautifully designed. As a Marvel fan I would say buy this for another marvel fan or yourself if your a Marvel fan.

If your looking for some base knowledge on most things marvel I highly recommend you this book.

This is a beautiful book with a lot of information for the Marvel fan. The illustrations are superb and and the writing is engaging and really interesting. It give a lot of information that even the super fan may have missed. Love it!

Great quality book. I was surprised at how nice this book is. I bought it for my 9 year old nephew. He likes to know everything about everything. Do I figured he would enjoy this fact book.The outside of this book is really nice. It is textured and has raised letters. The face is almost a canvas feel. The inside has great illustrations and information. Very detailed.Would make a great gift.

Bought this as a gift and the person loved it. Def a great option for a Marvel fan!

OMG yessssss. Such amazing information and beautiful pages. There are lots of characters and great surprise throwback people you may have forgotten about. A perfect gift for any Marvel fan.

This was a gift for a friend's 9 year old son. He loves it and often carries it around with him. Not too mature, not too babyish. Great purchase.

This book is a good primer for anyone looking to get into (or back into) the Marvel Universe. It contains a lot of interesting facts and good summaries of many major characters and events, but some others are noticeably absent.For starters the book as a whole is very light on X-Men content, with only a single two-page spread devoted to the entire team, which has had many revisions over the years. Major characters like Storm, Kitty Pride, Psylocke, and Bishop are hardly mentioned aside from in a laundry list of members (if at all), and iconic villains like Magneto, Apocalypse, and Juggernaut are relegated to single-sentence summaries.Most of the other Marvel properties get better treatment, except for their other dream team, the Fantastic Four. Being just a group of four, two pages was probably enough for the heroes, but some of the major villains they've spawned were omitted almost entirely. Galactus gets a minor reference, but it's Dr. Doom who is seriously snubbed (no dedicated villain page for either). It's a shame to see such little content devoted to the original Marvel super villain who would form the archetype for all others to come.Finally, the events section is pretty light as well; the 2015 Secret Wars remake is listed but the '80s classic is ignored. The same goes for the Contest of Champions and Age of Apocalypse, and likewise for more recent major events and alternate universes like "House of M" and its aftermath in Avengers vs. X-Men.So overall, there's a decent amount of content and it's well presented, but I feel like the book could have standed to be another 20 or so pages and include some of these more glaring omissions.
