 DC Characters July 12, 2010
Paul Lazzaretti (Arlington Heights, IL)
Perfect book to add to your library especially if you want to learn more about super heros/villians who make cameo appearances in movies.
 A classic expansive detailed overview of the heros & villiains in the dc universe which is an essential character reference November 11, 2009
Peppercorn (sydney australia)
What can be said about this encyclopaedia that hasn't already been said? I had the previous 2004 edition I was thrilled to have that one, this new expanded encyclopaedia is spectacular. This book is exhaustive on referencing over one thousand DC characters, origins, significant events in DC mythology. It provides a definite order to the pandemonium of DC characters and history in a most visually acceptable way. The encyclopaedia focuses on teams, places, weapons, vehicles, battles and everything that is DC. Emphasised in more brand new pages are the icons of DC mythology like Batman, and Superman which have been around forever in that their are Rich in characters even of the most obscure and overlooked forgotten individuals. The art work is so legendary enviable that it,s beyond the norm of realistic in that all the characters seem to jump out of youi in the book in all directions. The cover is a masterpiece of expansion in that Alex Ross is the most artistically talented artist ever to have imagination and flair that go beyond the norm. This is a book for true DC aficionados that no true DC lover can be without it will become a collector's item because everything about it is fabulous. Not only does it supersede the 2004 edition but it also has an added 48 brand new pages in it with expanded detail on some characters of a more pronounced nature in it with updates and new storylines including the recent Infinite crisis story. This book will be even more successful than the previous one. An essential DC mythology and character reference of all the charcters good or bad in the dc universe.
