Marvel Absolutely Everything You Need to Know by Sven Wilson, John Sazaklis, Lorraine Cink, Adam Bray

3.0

This oversize book is vibrant on every page, conveying the feel of comics and providing a strange sort of overview via mostly unconnected specificity. Organized by subject and without any additional 'more on'/'see'/'turn to' page direction, this collection of Fun Facts feels like the shimmer of the sun on the tip of the iceberg: the details presented glimmer interestingly and prove a complexity despite never plumbing the depths. There isn't any coherence or through-line that helps anchor any of the tidbits to each other (not that one is needed (per, perhaps, possible) for a book like this), but the scale and the art make it a perfect coffee table book.
