- Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2024I, although already knowing a lot of the characters, (or thinking I did), bought this because it seemed interesting. Maybe save me some time on researching and reading. Best hopeful purchase I’ve gotten in a long time! This book has beautiful writing and drawings, over 200 characters that I guarantee even a comic fanatic doesn’t know completely of. I have no complaints. The book itself was in peak condition, and what it contained is enough to keep you interested for hours! As if the drawings and descriptions weren’t enough, they include a story from the comics *and* a small imput of details about the characters! (height, hair color, age, real name, etc.) If youre a casual enjoyer or a DC fanatic, I highly recommend this book to you! (Small note, this book isn’t small. If you’re getting this to easily travel with, make sure you have a big bag 😂 if you do, it’s all good!)
- Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2023I have really enjoyed this book. This book has helped me learn evan more about the DC universe. That i don't know about after all this time of being a big fan of the DC universe.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2024gift
- Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2019Great artwork and info and all around pretty good. Arrived quickly too :)
It doesn't include a few really cool ones like Zasz,Hush,Court of Owls,Talon,Professor Pyg, watchmen,ext. If it's from 2019,should add some more notable names in here (my only complaint )
- Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2024Worth a better understanding of DC characters.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2020I needed a book for reference in some art work. DC characters are my favorite & it’s cool getting to know those that I don’t know. The price on this book was very good compared to others. It’s great quality in every way. One point is that it’s much smaller - thinner - than I had expected. That’s just my issue. They cover most the uDC Characters but it’s not as thorough as the larger mega-pages books I have on other graphic novel/comic characters. Regardless, the book is a hard cover-like the really hard school book type covers with the sharper edges, ha! Perfect for my book shelf - the art, the descriptions, the layout are all excellent and it has helped me with the projects which I needed it.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2024Nice book and came in good condition
- Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2020This was the perfect book for our super hero loving son. He loves learning about new characters and searching for his favorites. It’s one he will be able to grow into and a great price point.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bom, recomendo
Material de qualidade, boas ilustrações, em sua maioria. Em inglês. Cada página apresenta brevemente um personagem da DC. Recomendo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top quality nonsense
If superb heroes are your thing then this book is excellent. Obviously aimed at kids. I'd never heard of most of the characters but that's no surprise as I couldn't be less interested. Excellent quality book, perfectly proportioned for a small person.

5.0 out of 5 stars Knap
Hele knappe strip/boek met wederom zwakke verpakking. Amazon snapt nog steeds niet dat een goede prijs EN een goede verpakking gezond zouden zijn voor de omzet.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful collector's edition
Hard cover. Brilliant creatives. Great information and an absolutely perfect gift for any graphic novel/superhero fan. I myself am thinking of buying one because the one I ordered was a gift to my nephew.
