 Marvel handbook done right September 16, 2008
Finally, Marvel is putting together these exhaustive handbooks in hard cover form. If you are a big Marvel fan you absolutely have to have these reference books. Also, finally, there are biographies for Marvel Golden Age characters which is very nice.
If you collected the Official Marvel Handbooks from the 1980s-1990s and enjoyed them then these updated versions are a MUST have. The matching spines and similar covers look good on the book shelf and the back covers give a list of all the biographies inside.
Pretty much perfect for what it is.

Great resource book; really gives you a thorough update on people, events, and places in the Marvel Universe. In the past, Marvel has come out with handbooks that were very broad and intended for the everyday comic reader and really left a lot questions still needed to be answered; that's not the case in this new edition. Since the Civil War, the landscape of the Marvel Universe had changed so drastically that it made the other handbooks grossly obsolete. I recommend this new series to casual and hardcore comic readers alike.
 Continuing the high production quality May 16, 2008

I like this, but not quite as much as other volumes in this series, mainly due to the characters included. It covers Baroness S'bak to Crimson Dynamo, which is a little frustrating since the 1st edition ends with Blackwing. These volumes are slightly out of alphabetical order due to half-page entries being listed at the end of their respective letters. In any case, production quality is still very high...
The contents here include: Baroness S'bak; Beasts of Berlin; Black Brother; Blackwulf; Blade; Blank; Blaquesmith; Blastaar; Blazing Skull; Blindspot; Blink; Blizzard (Gill); Blob; Blood Brother; Bloodscream; Elsa Bloodstone; Ulysses Bloodstone; Bloodwraith; Blue Diamond; Bluebird; Bogatyri; Bogeyman; Alexander Bont; Bella Donna Boudreaux; Bounty; Jamie Braddock; Brain; Moira Brandon; Betty Brant; Brethren; Brood; Brother Voodoo; Brotherhood; Brotherhood of Mutants; Brothers Grimm; Brute; Brynocki; B-Sides; Bug; Bug-Eyed Voice; Bull's Eye; Bullseye; Burglar; John Bushmaster; Bushwacker; Buzz; Cabal of Scrier; Cable; Cable/Askani World; Cadaver; Luke Cage; Cagliostro; Caiera the Oldstrong; Caliban; Callisto; Calypso; Cammi; Cannonball; Captain America (Rogers); Captain America (Barnes); Captain Britain; Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell); Captain Omen & the Infra-Worlders; Captain U.K.; Captain Ultra; Captain Universe; Cardiac; Caretakers; Carnage; Carrion; Sharon Carter; Black Tom Cassidy; Celestials; Centurions; Centurious; Centurius; Century; Cerebra/Cerebro; Cerise; Challenger; Chameleon; Champion; Champions of Los Angeles; Champions of Xandar; Changeling; Chemistro; Lila Cheney; China Force; Amadeus Cho; Chondu the Mystic; Chrome (Swenson); Chronomancer's World; Chthon; Circus of Crime; Citizen V (Watkins); Citizen V (Watkins III); Clan Destine; Stuart Clarke; Clea; Cloak; Cobalt-Man; Code:Blue; Cognoscenti; Kasper Cole; Collective; Collective Man; Collector; Colossus (Rasputin); Committee; Conspiracy; Constrictor; Contemplator; Contest of Champions; Contingency; Controller; Conundrum; Valerie Cooper; Copperhead; Copycat; Corporation; Corps; Corruptor; Fabian Cortez; Cosmic Cube; Cotati; Council of Godheads; Count Abyss; Count Nefaria; Counter-Earth (High Evolutionary); Counter-Earth (Franklin Richards); Crazy Eight; Creators; Graydon Creed; Crime-Master; Crimson Commando; Crimson Cowl, and then Crimson Dynamo.
Honestly, I highly recommend getting other volumes in this series first; it's pretty much all about which characters are your favorites.
