    Synopsis

    Following the success of the first edition, the updated and revised DC Comics Encyclopedia offers even more incredible DC detail and imagery than the original. 48 brand-new pages include major updates on characters and storylines (including the recent "Infinite Crisis" story arc). This spectacular, up-to-the-minute encyclopedia will delight comic fans of every age.

    Savannah Schroll Guz - Library Journal

    A well-timed expansion of the 2004 edition, this singular, visually extraordinary hero-villain field guide provides definitive order to the pandemonium of character names and histories. Beatty (JLA), Robert Greenburger (Essential Batman Encyclopedia), Phil Jiminez (Wonder Woman), and Daniel Wallace (Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia) meticulously profile 1000 DC heroes and villains created since DC's 1935 founding. The entries are organized alphabetically, by character name, while introductory insets consistently detail first appearance, hero/villain status, physical statistics, and special powers. A genuinely essential DC character reference; highly recommended for pop culture, graphic novel, and even public library collections.
