The DC Comics Encyclopedia, Updated and Expanded Edition
$40.00
I'd be very wary of some of the information in this AND the previous printing. I happen to know that the entries for two of the "Marvel Family" characters were plagiarized. Mary Marvel's was lifted off a fanfiction website and Captain Marvel Junior's from a role-playing game site. I know this because I originally wrote them and neither jibe with "history" listed in the DCU Captain Marvel's entry.

Marvel Encyclopedia
$40.00
I bought this book for my 10 year old son, in the hopes of turning him into a hopeless comic book nerd like his old man. It should do the trick. This book has EVERYONE in it. Every single obscure, flash-in-the-pan character who ever rubbed elbows with Captain America or traded quips with Spider-Man is in this volume. The only drawback to this comprehensive compendium of colossal combantants (how's my Stan Lee impression?) is that the histories of major characters must be severely compressed for the sake of space. If you want the full story on figures like The Hulk or Iron Man, you'll have to go with a more specialized reference source, such as the Avengers Encyclopedia. I was also disappointed to find that my copy has a small tear on the dust jacket, but at 30% off of the cover price, I can't complain too much. The Marvel Ecyclopedia should provide hours of interesting reading, both for me and my son.

American History Comic Books: Twelve Reproducible Comic Books With Activities Guaranteed to Get Kids Excited About Key Events and People in American History (Funnybone Books)
$11.99
Part of my disappointment is that I didn't look at the inside of the book to find out that the comics
were in black and white. I guess I should have realized that because it does say that they comics
are reproducible. Very disappointing that they were not in color. Have not given it to the grandchildren yet but I bought other historical comics that are in color so I think this one will be a disappointment. It was to me.
