"This history of Marvel comics was one of the books that I had received for Christmas. I have to say that the book does not fail in any aspect. It's a visual treat which you would really expect given that it's a history of a graphic body of work. The nice surprise was the amount of information on both the publishing company, and the many iterations that it has gone through in it's business life. The size of the book and case that it comes in made it a definite home/bedroom read. It would have been a bit of a trial to haul out on the morning commute! Having said that though the size was part of it's appeal."
"A year by year and month by month breakdown of every important event in the Marvel Universe. A great find for comic geeks.
Lots of beautiful images of comic book covers, as well as some interiors. Densely packed with interesting information about the history of the company, and the origins of some of it's most famous characters.
Covers the entire history of Marvel, from it's origins as Timely Comics through World War II, the Atomic Age, and into the modern era. I love the way that each Year includes a side bar listing major current events of that year, which helps to contextualize the events of the Marvel Universe within our own.
"Yes... I both added and read this book all in one day. A year-by-year exploration of the development of the Marvel line of comics from their inception as romance and westerns , through to the birth of the Marvel Age of comics, right up to the major cross-over events of 2008, like World War Hulk. Last Christmas I received the Marvel Encyclopedia and this year Chronicles. Together they tell you just about all you need to know... though many fan boys recollections are likely to be more in depth (and aware of continuity gaffs!)>"
