Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Brings the DC Universe to Life
I am a casual DC Comics fan who was much more into comics in my youth. I bought this encyclopedia because I used to enjoy reading "Who's Who," a series in the 80's that featured biographies of DC characters. The cover art on this is striking, done beautifully by Alex Ross. The biographies have all been updated, so it was nice to hear about what my favorite (or obscure) heroes and villians have been up to the last 10-20 years. The entries are generally well-written, though I have found an error here ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Animation and Information!
Loved this and being I am not a comic guy and only know story lines via cartoons and movies so this filled in the blanks and back stories, orgins and the anamation is great.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - DC
At the rate Character Bio's change within the DC Universe its amazing that an Encyclopedia can even be put together at all but since a lot of the writers now a days are referencing characters i might not be familiar with, this Book at least makes it possible to get an idea about who it is or was at one point... its only drawback is because of when it was published a small percent of the information is not canon with todays stories.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Zap! Pow! Bam!
Book delivered the powerful punch I was expecting. Bought for my son and he loves it. It is very informative.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Almost there
This is a great product for any DC fan. The only issue that may be had is a desire for more. Many less well known and darker characters are left out, also seemingly no character within Vertigo are present. Still a great buy.
