- ANOTHER GREATEST BOOK EVERY WRITTEN!!!
Yet another that if I could've given 10 stars, I would! Again, without going into detail, I have to say, again, that not only was I satisfied and thrilled by this book, but I would have to say that it is, along with "The Marvel Encyclopedia", possibly the greatest book every put together (including the King James Bible)!

It covers the whole of the DC Universe from their very beginning and treats the superhero/super-villain entries (complete with beautiful artwork) as though they were as real as any of us who grew up reading about them (and continue to read about them) felt they always were!

This book is also a must and is also worth every penny and then some!

- For people that seeks good draws...
I've seen this book in a book store, and have chance to see it. The pictures are not good quality, and looks very old. The Hardcover is the best picture in whole book.

Rating:

- Good information and pretty well updated
A lot of superheroes that you have totally forgot about. Plus multiple histories for heroes that have been reborn or changed over time. An A+ for any comic book fan. A real great way to teach your kids about the comics or to have a significant other learn about the charactors of the movies.

- Great Collection for nerds and part-time nerds both
OK - admittedly I am not as familiar with the DC universe as the Marvel Universe, but when I saw this book for the mid $20 price point I decided to grab it since I was interested in the history of the DC universe as well. I am very happy I did. This is a great book that seems to be fairly complete given my knowledgebase (admittedly limited) and seems to have all types of interesting information. I can not attest to each characters accuracy, but I can say that just having and reading through this I found it fascinating at the creative minds that thought up these characters originally. Aspiring movie writers should get this and get some ideas of characters - and do the same with the Marvel one. All-in-all both this one and te Marvel books are great as a referencial read, just as a reference book, or just to look through onece in a blue moon.
