Marvel Chronicle - Great New Book

[iSteve]

Yesterday, I got my copy of the Marvel Chronicle yesterday and haven't been able to put it down. It is a year-by-year (some times a month-by-month) chronology of Marvel from 1939-2008. It's a beautiful hardcover.

This was near the top of my Xmas list. Very excited to get my hands on it.

Yeah, I poured through this at Boarders last week. It is extremely detailed. I mean it has an entry for Darkhawk. Granted there probably wasn't much else to mention that occurred in March of 1991, but damn... Darkhawk. No Sleepwalker, but X-Men 2099 also made the cut.

Yeah I read this a lot when it got to my work (Borders). Really great job on DK's part for this, hopefully a DC book will come out soon. This is much better then the 'Vault' books I've seen lately.

This is much better then the 'Vault' books I've seen lately.So far there is both a Marvel and DC Vault and both a Marvel and DC Encyclopedia. I imagine we'll be seeing a DC Chronicle sooner or later. Or so I hope.
