If you’re a fan of DC Comics, you’ll want to get hold of this massive visual history. DC Comics Year By Year takes you through 75 years of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, and all the DC super-heroes as they evolved over the decades. You can’t find a more comprehensive history of comic book company than this tome. It’s a visual feast! I also enjoyed the informative foreword by Paul Levitz, president of DC Comics from 2002-2009. GRADE:A
Wowser!
Wowser, indeed, Dan. This is a must-buy for DC Comics fans.
Another one on my list.
Barnes & Noble sent me a 50% off coupon so I used it to buy DC COMICS YEAR BY YEAR, Scott. Well worth it!
Looks great. Now if only I could get one of thoes 50% off coupons… they only send me 15% off ones.
I think Barnes & Noble considers me a “heavy user,” Rick, because I buy about $100 a week from them. That’s why they send me those 50% off coupons. They know I’m a helpless addict and I’ll have to buy something with it.
