Summary: Great gift idea!
Comment: I first saw this in the holiday issue of Real Simple magazine and thought it would be a nice gift. I ordered two of these for Christmas gifts, one for my Fiance and the other for his brother in-law... They're both typical guys that enjoy watching Marvel movies - my Fiance particularly collected comics (Marvel & DC etc.) as a child and still has them stored away. When my Fiance openned it at Christmas, he thought it was the "coolest" thing ever - his brother in-law saw him open it and immediately said "Whoa, I want to buy that!" little did he know he had one too! Needless to say, it made both of them happy as a kid again. The book has an M shaped cover and is enclosed in another box (the picture they show you is sort of the box it's kept in). There's a ribbon that lays underneath the book that you can lift to make it easier to take the book out of the box. It's full color with beautiful detail. I would definitely purchase this again if there's ever any one else I can think of to give it as a Christmas or Birthday gift to!

Since I bought this as a gift, I can't really review this according to actual content but I can tell you that neither guys have complained and love their gift!

Summary: A great gift to any closet nerd
Comment: I gave this book to my boyfriend as a Christmas gift. He isn't a total comic fan, so he was a little confused when I gave it to him. However, I now catching him reading it all the time. He loves it because it's all about the history of Marvel and not some giant comic book.
